HookshotHotshot,
 * Sorry, don't know how to properly quote yet*

Here is an ordered response to all of your questions.

How long, ummmm less than 24 hours. A buddy told me about this forum and I thought I'd come on over and show what I've got.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I kind of already came up with a team name. I call them Team TAPE since it's an acronym for all of their initials and technically can be pronounced as Taupe if the "A" were pronounced as a hard "O". The name TAPE also works toward my second goal, making the team sound as unusual and bad as possible. None of the members of Taupe are exceptional in any way and are regarded as some of the worst and most embarrassing huntsman at Beacon that no one can take seriously. I feel the name reflects that as it follows the rule, but is initially passed off as something else that doesn't adhere to the conventions.

The thing is Automne's name is supposed to sound terrible. Just about everyone else has a normal (by RWBY standards) name, while Automne Ombre Noire sounds like paint. Also that is one of the best descriptions I've heard for his name. I will be stealing that.

Didn't realize that was a requirement, will add that.

Sorry, got a bit smarmy on that one. Also there is none, he can fade out of visibility seamlessly.

Automne goes through dozens of landing strategies, but When entering the Emerald Forest: He attempted to build up as much wind resistance as possible by spreading out his arms and legs. Then as he approached the tree line he fired all his handgun's ammunition in the direction he was falling to create more resistance. Quickly he drew his Ninjato and extended it outwards as a mean of hanging onto a tree which he was about to rapidly collide with. When he hit the tree he relied on his Aura to absorb the impact and his Ninjato to hold him in place. This landing strategy resulted in him falling through the canopy and dislocating his arm.

I'll consider making a new one, I'm indecisive anyways.

Automne and his team are all loosely based off the four seasons (I swear, I wrote this before the show revealed the Maidens. Now I'm stuck with having to explain that I'm not ripping off the show.). Automne is Autumn (Big shock there), Eve is Winter, Tyrian is based around Spring, and Petunia is Summer. By their powers combined they make a big mess as their differing opinions and attitudes lead them to ruin everything for literally everyone.
