@Alhazad2003: i should've explained my reasoning for making these big changes.

Ghira and Kali in the rewrite, aren't White Fang members, in face Ghira ain't the High Leader, he was just a peaceful Faunus civil rights protester who was killed by human extremists. Sienna isn't the High Leader because Adam's predecessor is actually the Faunus seen in Corsac and Fennec's shrine. This High Leader was Adam's mentor and when Adam was rising through the ranks he was impressed, then when he died of a disease, he appointed Adam as High Leader. Sienna was one of Adam's supporters and Adam made her his decoy because he prefers to fight on the front lines among his troops and not deal with spending time doing politics since that was useless to him. Plus she's the perfect face for the White Fang in his view. Now Yang isn't completely sidelined, in fact she's the one helping Ruby on her journey to Haven along with teams JNR and CFY, also i preferred her rivalry with Mercury to be explored during the rewrite. Velvet joined Blake because in the rewrite she serves as a mentor to Blake at Beacon along with the rest of team CFVY mentoring team RWBY. Now for Blake's time in the White Fang...yes she was as aggressive as Adam at the time and wanted nothing more than to bring justice. However when she saw that human child being killed it reminded her of her past, and she realized that there is a grayness to both sides of the conflict, and would prefer fighting Grimm, as they're just mindless beast who don't discriminate. Adam did try to justify their actions but Blake didn't want to do Faunus rights anymore and just go neutral.

But of course this is an idea, and im not posting it soon. I'm still thinking on the details and if there are changes i need to make...also i need to hear an honest opinion on Cinder: should she be a benevolent anarchist in the rewrite instead of a power hungry 1 dimensional villain? As well as explore her backstory in Volume 3?
