Jaune Arc

Jaune is the youngest child of eight, all of which are sisters. Because Jaune comes from a long line of great generals and kings, and women can’t enlist in the Torian military, Jaune is left with continuing the family legacy of honor and loyalty to the state. A lot is riding on him. (He’s not a fraud); he’s just afraid of upsetting his father, who is a strict traditionalist.

Combat
He wields a longsword and a shield, both of which were passed down to him by his Arc ancestors — a constant reminder of who he is and what is expected of him.

History
​​​​​Jaune loves to feign a royal status — he’s the opposite of Weiss. Ironically, he goes after Weiss as part of the whole facade; trying to convince himself he’s what his father wants, and by courting a wealthy noble woman he could try and live up to his expectations. Naturally, in this effort he befriends Pyrrha. When the time comes for Pyrrha’s father to assume control of Atlas, and Jaune finally discovers his feelings for her, suddenly his family forbids it. Atlas is a threat to Torinth, and therefore its leadership, Pyrrha included, is the enemy.
