About Carmine[]
Chapter One[]
| “ | Another benefit of wearing sunglasses was people couldn't tell when you were staring, and Coco couldn't take her eyes off the fit, dark-skinned woman. Tinted goggles were perched atop her head, and her wild, unbound scarlet hair reached just past her waist. Freckles dotted her nose and cheeks. A streak of silver hair starting at her left temple shone in the firelight, mirroring the short silver cape draped over her ride side. A chain mail crop top exposed her midriff, and he completed the ensemble with a black belt, red mini-shorts, and thigh-high black boots. Holsters on her belt held a pair of long said. | ” |
—Carmine's description
Chapter Three[]

| “ | They aren't the sharing type. The Caspians hired Bertilak and Carmine for protection, and whatever their faults, those Huntsmen are serious about protecting them – from everyone. | ” |
—Slate comments on Carmine and Bertilak's suspicious behavior
| “ | Either Bertilak and Carmine aren't team platers, which is odd for Huntsmen, or they're hiding something. | ” |
Chapter Nine[]

Chapter Thirteen[]
| “ | I knew something was up with Bertilak and Carmine. I knew they weren't behaving like real Huntsmen. | ” |
—Edward Caspian
| “ | Bertilak and Carmine...they knew that we were causing those emotion bombs. I hired these fools to take us to safety, but over time, I realized they weren't taking us west at all, at least not directly. By the time I figured that out, though, we were already in the desert and the Grimm were following us – we needed the Huntsmen to survive. So I figured I'd try the distress call, see if it brought anyone in. | ” |
—Edward Caspian to Fox
Chapter Fifteen[]
| “ | We've sparred with Telekinesis before. And I'm willing to bet you're not as good as Goodwitch. | ” |
—Coco to Carmine

RWBY: Amity Arena[]
| “ | Carmine is a veteran huntress hailing from Shade Academy currently active in Vacuo. An extremely skillfull, cunning individual, she lives up to her reputation as a rattlesnake of the sands. Every fiber of her being oozes style and cool that impresses a certain other stylish and cool huntress-in-training, immediately. Because it was the first time Coco found another individual as chic and fashionable, if not more so, than herself.
Carmine fights with wit and wiles to reach her goals, and is capable of feats of great power with her Sai, Semblance, and mastery over the desert. But in the end, her ability to manipulate the things around her is what makes her a truly fearsome huntress. "I love your outfit." -Coco "I want your purse. Who's the designer?" -Carmine" |
