Nice posting, however I disagree with you on Raven not being a coward, it's clear that Raven is someone who prefer to avoid her problems rather than face them directly, as shown with her trying to dodge Qrow's critics in their conversation instead of responding directly to them, and her reactions at being called a coward by Lionheart and Yang are typicaly those who of someone who react to another person hiting a nerve, her leaving Yang with the relic because she's unable to stand the idea of being hunted by Salem prove further that point,if she really cared that much she wouldn't have broken in tears and apologized to Yang, besides bandits are very rarely brave persons and most of social darwinists prove themselves to be dirty cowards when they really are in a perilous situation. Also being raised in the tribe doesn't justify her leaving Taiyang and Yang because Qrow was raised in the same conditions by the tribe but didn't turn his back on Taiyang and his nieces despite having arguably less reasons to stay with them than Raven. Also I really doubt that Raven cares that much for the tribe, she never tried to justify her actions to Yang where her facade of strenght is broken by Yang by saying that it was for the good of the tribe, and her final conversation with Yang in Volume 5 made it clear that it's mainly to preserve herself that Raven did her actions in Volume 5, she might care to an extent for the tribe but it's secondary to her own survival.
