A. Adam didn't start the "Grimm mask" thing, it was this girl. Her's was much more Grimm-like than Adam's, and definitely more extravagant.

B. Raven is a Faunus, and a past affiliate of the White Fang. Kinda get the WF from the whole Grimm mask, and that means she's gotta be a Faunus, right? And because hers is so extravagant, then I think that she might also have been a higher-up, like the bad guy equivalent to Goodwitch or Ironwood.

C. If she really is Yang's mom (which would explain why she appeared to save her then immediately disappears) than Yang is the Faunus-human hybrid we've been looking for. If Raven is a Faunus, and Taiyang is human (which I think is safe to assume, otherwise Ruby would also be part-Faunus), then Yang is the hybrid. This actually might explain why she left Yang in the first place. She didn't want her daughter to be ashamed of her, so she handed her over to Taiyang and Summer (both human) to protect her from discrimination.

And that's my penny's worth for the day. I can see a WF tie to her but maybe she killed the Nevermore and decided to wear it's face as a veil of somesort so people wouldn't recognize her face. Also going with the hybrid thing maybe the human genes are more dominant and faunus genes are more recessive so that's why Yang looks relatively normal. Or it could be just a 50-50 thing where she could look like one or the other and since she looked human, Raven felt more comfortable leaving her with Taiyang and Summer. I don't know I just really like her design she looks sick.

ANOTHER THEORY: She joined the WF after leaving Yang when she was a baby and she trained Adam and he decided to take the bird-motif that his master had for herself and wanted to carry on her tradition which could also explain why they have such similar weapons
