Somethings been bothering me about the masks. Sun recognizes them as “Grimm Masks” without understanding much about the White Fang. This suggests to me that the Grimm Mask are or at least were used by some one else.

Now it could be that he just calls them that because the look like the “bone face-plate”, or whatever the Grimm have. I don't think so because, he called them “Grimm Masks”, not “Grimm looking masks”, or “masks that look like Grimm”. Also they are not exactly the same as the “masks” or whatever it is that the Grimm actually have. Not the same shape, Grimm don’t have slits for eyes, and most are just gray not the heavy black, heavy white with a little red and yellow color scheme that the Grimm have.

So, if its more then just the Grimm association. What is the significances of the masks? Sun's reaction is one of distaste saying “but, Grimm Masks? That's kinda dark.”.

Even after Blake's explanation, his reaction is not so dissimilar to one of us, being asked to wear a Black Sun, Pentacle, or even a Swastika. And then asked to enter a clandestine meeting in abandoned looking warehouse.

Also there’s this “We fought for countless reasons one of which being the destruction of all forms of art and self expression. And as you are well aware, that was something many could not stand for.” - Ozpin. Who on earth(Remnant) would fight for the destruction of art?

If we look here. Definition: Grim : stern and admitting of no appeasement or compromise: fierce, savage, or cruel. I realize that this is something of a leap, but I keep seeing a NAZI analog in the form of a “Grimm Cult” or something. Perhaps this is the enemy that the Four Kingdoms fought in The War. Maybe it's because I'm board, but this idea wont stop rattling around in my head.
