Or the whole point of him is that he is supposed to be unremarkable and quite ordinary, frankly, compared to the other members of the RWBY cast. However, then we suddenly see him decapitating left and right with his boring old sword, and eventually we are taken by surprise when he fights on an equal level with the other RWBY members without any special sword-gun-whip-rifle-scythe and just a plain shield and sword.

Or I could be wrong and he has the semblence of Defense, and his sword and shield get upgraded into giant glowing scutum(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scutum_(shield)) and a giant holy winged gladius(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gladius) and he starts fucking shit up with divine explosions and shit.
