That still raises the issue of what qualifies as the first appearence.

Numerous characters debut in the Trailers aside from RWBY, including Roman, Junior's group, and Adam. So would they get a Trailer section? Or would the trailers not count and we go by when they debut in the main series?

Then there are characters like Qrow, Summer, Salem, and Lionheart. Qrow's true debut was in Volume 3, but he had a silhouette in Volume 2, and Oz got a message from him in Volume 1.

Summer has never had a proper debut, the first time we technically saw her being in the Volume 1 Opening when Ruby was at her gravestone, but outside of a picture, she doesn't appear in the main series.

Salem was the narrator for the first three volumes, meaning she technically debuted in Volume 1, but she doesn't physically appear until Volume 3, so where would she be put?

And while Leonardo was referenced numerous times in Volume 4, the most we saw was his shoulder that volume. So would his debut be listed in Volume 4 or 5.

So organised by Debut doesn't seem fitting either?

Maybe just organize them by Character Importance. Main Cast in one section, Supporting in another, Minor in the last, and keep the Deceased section since they have the screen time of minor cast but the importance of supporting.
