As long as we get (sad and feels-inducing) backstories on Ruby, Weiss, and Blake, then I'll be happy. I can't, though, see Yangs, Rens, or Noras being sad. Yang and Nora are too happy for a sad backstory and Ren doesn't seem that... troubled. We know Ruby has a troubled past with Summer, and Weiss and Blake's are self explanatory.

And going back to Pyrrah - I think that she's essentially secure. She's not troubled and it doesn't seem like she ever really was. She had a normal life and decided to help people. I hope that's her story, because all of the current characters seem to have dark and out-of-character pasts. I like their stories a lot, but I'd like to have a character who's actually normal, with a simple past. Or, at least, as normal as it can be for a 17-year-old monster slayer.
