}}'''Ruby Rose''' is the main protagonist of ''RWBY'', an American anime-influenced computer-animated web series created by Monty Oum and produced by Rooster Teeth Productions. Ruby is a "Huntress", warriors who protect the world from evil creatures called Grimm, and is a member of the titular squad with [[Weiss Schnee|Weiss]], [[Blake Belladona|Blake]], and [[Yang Xiao Long|Yang]]. Her signature weapon is a scythe called "Crescent Rose", which can also be used as a high caliber sniper rifle.

When talking about a potential waifu tournament contested between Western cartoons and comics, one might easily assume that ''RWBY'' girls would thrive because of the show's Animesque designs and plenty of female characters, but this is not the case on 4chan's /co/ board. Despite having a general thread dedicated to them (which has been banished to /trash/ as of Sep 2021), no ''RWBY'' girl has ever qualified for the main bracket of [[Ms. /co/ Tournaments|Miss /co/]] to date. Being the main character, Ruby is seen one of the series' best hopes to become the first such representative, alongside teammate Weiss and antagonist [[Neopolitan|Neo]]. A [[Character Plate]] was created upon this assumption.
