Doctor Who... isn't Ozpin our resident Doctor Who? LiveandSound wrote: @OP: Perfectly sure reaaallly modern stuff like X-Men or Star Wars is no-no to allude when it comes to RWBY. Well, Roman, Tukson, and SSSN are proof that modern influences can be utilized for at least the character design.

We know at least a few character names that were unmistakeable from the tweet by Monty such as Cobalt, Mint, and Tempest (what color is tempest?). There have been theories about what role they might have in the show, but anyone have any idea who they could be based on?

Not important, I guess. Just a curiosity.

Cyrano de Bergerac, William Shakespeare, Edgar Allen Poe, HP Lovecraft as characters. Hell, maybe Cyril Ian is based on Cyrano.
