So, Let me explain the world a bit:
The world is covered in beasts that sense human fear, helping them hunt said humans. These are known as creatures of Grimm. They run rampant, feasting on any human they find and take the appearance of wolves, bears, elephants, even MASSIVE birds.

To protect against these manifestations of evil, a profession has arisen: Hunters and Huntresses. These people have been specially trained to protect rural villages and futuristic cities alike from these monsters.
To train these warriors, combat schools have been set up, training them from the age of 15 until they are 18, where they graduate and receive licences.

Students have infinite power in forging their weapons - a scythe that can turn into a gun! A pair of gauntlets that shoot explosive bullets when you punch thin air! A handbag that's actually a minigun! A TRUMPET.






The weapon, as you see, is reflective of who the person wielding it is.

Dust is a mineral that's mined. It's in crystal or powder form. They are elemental: Blue=Ice, for example. You can combine them into weapons to produce cool effects eg. hoverboard + fire dust = fire coming out the bottom of the hoverboard.

People all have like a HP bar (called Aura), which lets them take damage until it's depleted and then they can get actual wounds.

Now the best part.
Each person has ONE superpower that is reflective of their personality. Superspeed, Masking emotions, Bad luck, Making shadow clones, depleting auras... You can combine them with dust if you wanted to and they are completely flexible. The freedom is all yours.

Professional Hunters/Huntresses, as well as training Hunters/Huntresses, can be individual, or in a team of up to 4 people.

Basically, keep the world the same but in an alternate reality, where team RWBY never existed and Salem's goons don't.. You know... Try to destroy the world. Instead of a team of 4, we can have the option of individuals or teams of 2s or 3s.
