I'm going to write up a series of these, since trying to hold discussions about individual characters all together on one page would get a bit too jumbled.

Neo has appeared in two episodes. She was present when the White Fang were introduced to their newest weapon: the Paladin. She then saved Roman from RWBY. Just recently, she curbstomped Yang and very nearly killed her. Furthermore, Neo has said nothing nor has she really done enough to fully display her as a three-dimensional character. So far, she's confident edging on arrogance and obviously willing to kill, but that's not saying much.

A plot is the unfolding course of a story via a series of usually or seemingly disconnected incidents.

Did Neo's presence at the White Fang meeting affect the plot? There is currently no evidence to suggest that it has.

Did Neo's timely appearance in saving Roman affect the plot? No. Roman has frequently been established as rather expendable. Since the reveal that Adam is actually running the White Fang, things would have gone down the same regardless of whether Roman had been captured.

Did Neo's fight with Yang affect the plot? Time will tell. A question that needs to be answered is whether Raven still would have appeared had this fight not occurred.

Future relevance is clearly not a viable factor otherwise Raven would have her own page.
