User blog:Hidden Scorpius XI/RWBY Manga. Chapter 3

SPOILERS: If you haven't read the manga yet, don't read this Blogpost.

We're good? Okay:

So this chapter of the manga sheds a bit more of light on the events transpired on the "White" Trailer. It gives us a bit of background for Weiss: A young girl who dedicated herself to excel in almost everything, and she basked in the praise from everyone, specially her father.

It also gives us a bit of an explanation on why Weiss fights the Giant Armor in the trailer. It is a test from this woman that we'll call "Umbridge," in order to let Weiss assist Beacon instead of Atlas. All is fine and dandy, but there's one thing that stood out to me about the Armor. Quoting from the manga:


 * "That is a Possession Type Grimm[...] The Company created this by capturing and accumulating multiple small specimens[...] Its strenght is around a mecha-suit and the rest... well I think it speaks for itself."

Um... what?

So that thing is basically a Grimm. Okay, nothing wrong here. But a "Possession type"? Created through a process that involves putting together more Grimm?

This raises a lot of questions: Sorry, but this concept is just contradicting everything we were told before... again. And the thing is that, I don't think we can get an elaboration on this, unless people ask the RWBY Crew the right question during the next Q&A. But that's a longshot.
 * Can this type of Grimm possess anything? Or anyone?
 * Is the possession a product of the process made to create the Grimm?
 * How does the process prevent the Grimm from degenerating immediately?
 * Will this become a plot-point in the show?
 * Is this just a product of writing-liberties? (I mean, the armor looks nothing like the one from the trailer, so it is plausible).
