MTRL “Medusa“ Trailer | RWBY Fanmade Animation

Here’s the first out of the 4 characters on team MTRL (Mithril). This is only my second ever fight animation so there’s gonna be a lot of imperfections i’m sure so feel free to criticise it in the comments. Now for some information on team MTRL’s leader, the prideful, arrogant, and resident frackin’ moron, Mera. 16-year-old Meralyn “Mera’’ Sakino wields a set of 3 blades called Ovid’s Arsenal which are fitted with both gravity and light dust. Her semblance is Phalanx. This allows her to move her aura around her body, and either condense it in one area more than the other, giving her more defense in that one specific area, or exert her aura outside her body, giving her attacks some extra punch. As the title suggests, Mera is based on Medusa. More specifically she is based on the priestess of Athena’s temple, Medusa before she was turned into a gorgon. This was animated in Source Filmmaker and I took inspiration mostly from RWBY (obviously) and Devil May Cry (also obviously) Be sure to check out my other inspirations for this video, although I’m 99% sure you already know who most of them are.
