@Anon: "as you can see, virtually ALL of the uses of that dust fall under force effects..."

.......No they don't. They really don't. Have you even watched the show? No one has ever used the Cyan Dust to make "magic" Armor or Weapons, nor to make a "Force Dash".

Only "Magic Missile", which is as general-sounding as it can be (not restricted to a specific element; is "Magic" Missile, not Force Missile), and maybe "Wall of Force", if you count the barriers as such, have been used. The former only by Weiss.

Besides, 2 problems:

1-Just because the PRD says it would be Force, it doesn't mean it would be Force in RWBY, much less called that. By the same "description", Gravity should be named Force.

2-"Force: Spells with the force descriptor create or manipulate magical force." ....What kind of stupid explanation is that? It explains less than nothing about what Force actually is. And because it explains nothing, what makes you so sure "Barrier Dust" is Force by it's reasoning?
