I have an idea. It's doesn't have any real proof that I can think. It's mostly speculation. Yet, I always wondered. Why is Ren always so tired after battles, at least compared to everyone else? I did some research and some people believe that Ren feeds his Aura into his teamates, and those he fights with. That's his semblance. Aura Projection. I actually think it goes deeper. I believe that with Ren's orphaned childhood, he has a very high pain tolerance, and has a larger Aura amount than we realize. So, he projects his Aura around his comrades, and takes the brunt of their pain when they get hurt. His aura heals him, sure, but he still feels the impact. The reason I came up with this is by researching the legend of Hua Mulan. In it, Mulan takes the place of her aged father in the war, shielding him and taking the pain of battle in his place, so he doesn't have to. I think Ren's aura should have some sort of tie into his semblance, especially if we use the rest of his team as an example. We don't know what Jaune's semblance is, though I think it must have something to do with Joan of Arc, maybe his voice can get people to naturally follow him. That's why he's such a great leader, and a brilliant tectician. Minor semblance, and a stretch, I know. Back on topic. Jaune's semblance could tie in with Joan of Arc. Pyrrah's semblance allowed her to used to metal in weapons to make herself virtually untouchable, "The Invincible Girl." This is similar to Achilles, and where does she finally fall? With an arrow to the heel. Nora is obviously based on Thor, she wields lightning and electricity, insane strength, nuff said. So if their semblances are based on who they're based on(stil following?) Then maybe, just maybe, Ren's semblance is based on Hua Mulan.

If you read all that, congrats.
