Well, uh, guess I'm a little late. I suppose it is possible that Faunus traits are dominant over not having Faunus traits. Or, perhaps it is even recessive, which leads to my (pretty clearly not true, but fun to come up with anyway) theory. Note as always that this is just my mind running free, not something I want to be or think might be true.

Weiss' mother is part Faunus. She doesn't know it, but she has a Faunus ancestor, and carries the genes for faunus traits. Mrs. Schnee is a good-hearted woman, who over time has fittingly come to sypathize with the Faunus. However, she makes a mistake. She has an affair with a Faunus servant, and she becomes pregnant with fraturnal twins. Thankfully for her, the math adds up back to a time when Mr. Schnee was around.

Mr. Schnee happens to be away when the twins are born, but that is the last of her luck. Baby Weiss is born normally. However, when baby Blake pops out with her little infant ears --both sets of them-- there is a very obvious problem. Fearing that her husband may go as far as killing her child (or perahps even herself!) if he finds out, she knows that she has to get Blake to a safe place to grow up.

She lets the father take Blake to live with his sister, a member of the then-peaceful White Fang, who already has a young son of her own, Adam. (You're welcome, shippers)

So, there you have it. Weiss gets a hard shock when she finds out that she's 3/4 Faunus, and Blake is "practically born into" the White Fang, never knowing her true parents, only that she's adopted by the Taurus family.

edit: Super bonus points if Mrs. Schnee is now Cinder. Elemental mage who uses glyphs, and has black hair and gold eyes. So you have a pair of fraternal twins. In order to save their lives one is adopted by her aunt and uncle before joining a rebel alliance and the other becomes a princess. They also have a parent who turns to evil. You do realize this is basically the plot to Star Wars right?

Never seen it so.... nope.
