Ruby will eventually reach the point in which she finds it harder to not hurt things that aren't Grimm. Her cutting off Tyrian's tail is the start of it. The issue is if she finds it a problem. If she does find it disturbing how easily she can hurt someone that isn't a Grimm, it may send her into thinking she isn't this "Paladin" and give her an identity crisis. If she doesn't find issue with it and rationalizes it as the people she's hurting as not being people, but monsters that look like people, it may send her in the direction of Knight Templar, dilluding herself until something breaks her dillusion.
