I've been resting on this idea for a while, that I hope someone turns into a fan-fiction someday (or whatever other medium they find it is best suited to), which I thought I would share with you guys.

Basically, the story would be a prequel to RWBY, set in Menagerie, and following the struggles of the Faunus residents as they live with inner-city life, racially-motivated gang warfare and poverty. It would be a lot darker than RWBY (go figure). Think "City of God" or "Boyz n the Hood", but with Monty Oum-esque fight scenes.

I don't know, though. It could end up being quite hackneyed, but I think the core idea is pretty solid.
