The Purpose of Team RWBY, the Maidens, and Why the Two will Never Overlap

So ever since we were first introduced to the Maidens back in Volume 3, there’s been a lingering question running through the fandom: Will one of Team RWBY ever get Maiden Powers? During Volume 7, Weiss was considered one of the most likely candidates to become the new Winter Maiden. And ever since Volume 5, people have been pointing out many supposed ‘hints’ and foreshadowing to Raven eventually making some big heroic sacrifice and passing the power of the Spring Maiden to Yang.

And it makes sense, doesn’t it? We’ve got this big, powerful legendary power of… er, power that gets passed down from one chosen one to another. In standard fantasy story terms, it seems inevitable that such a power would eventually find its way into the hands of at least one of our protagonists, right? Heck, we have four main heroines, and four legendary powers. So really, it’s only logical that all of Team RWBY will become the four Maidens by the end of the story, right?
