Gossan

Gossan was a settlement in the Kingdom of Vacuo, first introduced in the novel, RWBY: After the Fall.

Description
Gossan had a fully operational support CCT tower, but it was sub sequentially destroyed in a Grimm invasion.

History
Gossan was overrun and destroyed by Grimm, as August Caspian accidentally set off his Semblance while traveling with Edward Caspian, Bertilak Celadon, and Carmine Esclados, drawing the monsters to the settlement.

The remnants of the settlement joined with the nomadic tribe of Tuff, and was aided by Team CFVY in safely reaching Coquina.
