Although an Eragon-level character in RWBY would win literally everything, so there's that.

I don't know if I can agree with you on that point or not. If he followed the rules of Remnant, then his magic would be unusable, though his physical skill would probably still be present. In that case, I think he would be no tougher than any other skilled warriors in Remnant. With his magic, he would be unbeatable, but the only "magic" in Remnant is performed through semblance or dust. In a regular melee, Ruby would out-speed him, Blake's semblance would harass him, Yang would overpower him, or Weiss would freeze him.

The idea of that kind of mental attack performed through Aura is appealing, though, if not to the level of control that Live was speaking of.

Live, I do quite like the sound of your other semblance ideas.
