After all, we just found out about aura last Thursday. Not only that, but we haven't quite gotten a complete feel for the characters' personalities. We've only seen the surface of most of them, so far.

If I wanted to read the fanfics, though, I'd avoid most of the ones with OCs. I've already seen at least one typical "bad" OC. I put "bad" in quotation marks because it doesn't seem so bad to some, but seems awful to others. In this case, "My character is a family member of one of the canon characters and old friends with a/the main character. He/She is so edgy and awesome." It's never too late or too early to write a fan-fic about something, as long as it's non-canonical but applies the concept of RWBY (unless, of course, the charachters have been built enough).
