Silver Eyes is a very specific power Ruby was revealed to have at the end of V3, so even if you meant ofr it to be a different power the fact that the eyes are Silver makes people automatically draw parallel. -Thought about it, but didn't really like the idea, for 2 reasons: 1) Too boring, simple and just plain cheap. And 2) This is Remnant. We should take advantage of Remnant. When you have lemons, why not make lemonade? (or burn them in the oven to scare flies). If there was a less OP, yet still outstanding ability in Remnant, I would use it, but so far, that would be...Maidens. And that would be worse IMO.

-Not sure if Silver Eyes can manifest with different powers (hopefully not....or yes? Time Freezing seems too OP), though if you want to know, the story would be set decades before RWBY even begins, and the girl's family has no relation to Ruby's beyond both having the Silver Eyes of God in their blood.

"Draw parallels"...bound to happen.
