If you don't remember, Roman would've got captured by team RWBY If Neo didn't ex machina him out in "Painting the Town". And in "Battle of Beacon", Neo freed Roman from his cell and provided him with the scroll that contained the virus was used to infect the Atlesian Knights. Even though characters like Neo seem pointless, They can actually be vital to the success of the big players. As for Cinder, She has failed to kill Ruby Rose twice, Lost the powers of the Fall Maiden, Was unable to retrieve the Relic Of Knowledge, and Failed to steal to powers of the Spring Maiden. Thus, Making her nothing more than a loose end to Salem.
