User blog comment:Zathronas/Speculative author: Who is Summer Rose?/@comment-10380701-20140809050503

I'd like to refute the "Summer's statue is in front of Beacon" with the fact that Ruby didn't acknowledge it at any point. And to add to that...

This particular symbol. Sure, it's a hand ax in comparison to the battle axe that the statue had. But the concept is there.

As a counter theory: My theory is that the statue is actually the founder of Beacon Academy.

...Who may be Ruby's distant ancestor. But not Summer.



In terms of personality, I see Summer as essentially Red Trailer Ruby, with her hood up all the time, and an all-around badass. A caring mother as well, based on RLR 2.

I assume that through her relation with Qrow, she's almost on par with Ozpin with the amount of people that she knows. Maybe she also knows Cinder personally as a friend.

That's all I got on my headcanon of Summer.
