Ruby wears a hood and carries a scythe. In the red trailer everyone automatically said "oooh, Little Red Riding Hood," but I see her as also being based off the Grim Reaper in an awesome, genius way. Considering the speculation that she may have lost someone very close to her (Summer Rose) and that drives her to hunt and kill monsters (she took out all those beowolves after visiting the altar), it may be that her grim reaper design is symbolic of her "relationship," as it were, with death.

When she decapitated the Nevermore, the song playing in the background was "Red Like Roses, Pt. 2," the lyrics of which also talk about losing someone close to her. So I think the decapitation of the Nevermore ultimately was symbolizing her "dark side."
