Qrow Branwen/History

Background
Qrow is Ruby Rose and Yang Xiao Long's uncle. He was part of the same team as their father and respective mothers. Not a lot of his past is known, but at some point he saved the lives of his nieces from Beowolves, during a small search conducted by Yang, and became a teacher at Signal Academy.

Eventually he trained Ruby to become a Huntress, which included instructions on how to use "one of the most dangerous weapons ever designed," Crescent Rose. Ozpin appears to be familiar with Qrow, describing him as one of the most skilled scythe users he has ever met.

Dust Shop Robbery
When Ruby is being questioned by Ozpin and Glynda Goodwitch about her fight with Roman Torchwick and his men, Ozpin asks her how she acquired her skills with Crescent Rose.

Ruby explains that her Uncle Qrow taught her, mentioning that she was complete garbage before he took her under his wing.
