That is an interesting point. I am noticing that the two pairs of girls share some characteristics of Snow and Rose.

As for the rest of what you said, I should point out that Monty has said that while the characters in RWBY are based on and reference fairy tales, that does not mean that these fairy tales determine the characters' behavior or their role in the story. It sort of like Soul Eater (if you don't know, it's a manga) where there are characters whose looks and names are inspired by Frankenstein's monster and Medusa. However, the characters' personalities and the conflicts they are forced to deal with are different from their roots.

As such, I don't know if using the fairy tale to predict the story in RWBY will really go anywhere. There might be a correlation but chances are low. As far as I know (and I'm not sure about this), Monty has not explicitly stated that the fairy tales will have NO impact on the story. But, again, the chances are low.

Oh, and when you say that the bear eats the dwarf (actually the bear just killed the dwarf in the story), I hope you're not suggesting that Jaune and Ren are going to eat Crimson and Torchwick. :(
