User blog comment:KressKross/I wanna bring up the "Queen has pawns" thing/@comment-24994749-20140801025601

This si soemthing I already suggested in another blog:

"Remember when Glynda asked Ozpin what he had chosen as relics for this year? Implying the objects the students retrieve as relic is different for every initiation.

Ozpin does not answer and Glynda is left staring at his back. What if Cinder's generation also had chess pieces as relics? Maybe the chess piece the pairs of students chose gives away their personality.

Team RWBY and JNPR retrieved white pieces (knight and rook) and they are the protagonists.

Team CRDL retrieved black pieces (bishop) and were mainly antagonistic during Volume 1.

Maybe Cinder picked up the Queen piece? Which would be interesting given the Queen and King are the only chess pieces that ain't double.

I don't know about any particular symbolism of the chess pieces figures, but the Queen is easily the most powerful of all the chess board so picking it up could indicate a certain ego."
