[[File:Edf678e2fd147c9a4893b485426af04201141f16 00.gif|frameless|right|260x260px]]Zwei is a very intelligent dog, implied by Yang to be capable of using mechanical tools such as can openers and responding correctly to Ruby's questions when needed. As a dog, he has heightened senses of smell and hearing, which allowed him to find the White Fang soldiers in "Mountain Glenn". Likely due to his Aura, Zwei has been shown to perform feats no normal dog can do. He was first introduced compressing himself into a tube alongside dozens of cans of dog food and a can opener for an undisclosed amount of time without any ill effects on his body. Later, in "No Brakes", he is shown to be fireproof and extremely durable, as seen when he destroys an Atlesian Paladin-290 by being lit on fire and launched by Oobleck.

*Woof Woof*
~ Zwei
*Bark! Bark Bark!*
~ Zwei Barking at Blake

Background

Zwei is the pet dog of Taiyang Xiao Long and his daughters Yang Xiao Long and Ruby Rose. He normally lives with Taiyang at his home on Patch. Zwei is first introduced after Tai sends him through the mail to Team RWBY at Beacon Academy. Though Yang and Ruby are delighted to see him, Weiss Schnee and Blake Belladonna are not. After a few seconds, however, Weiss warms up to him and pets him. Blake tells the team to keep Zwei away from her belongings. Before heading to the auditorium to receive a mission, Ruby puts him into her backpack. The team then leaves on a mission to Mountain Glenn with Bartholomew Oobleck, and once there, Zwei reveals himself to the surprised team. Unexpectedly, Dr. Oobleck commends Ruby for bringing Zwei along on the mission. That night, Zwei leaves Team RWBY's campsite in Mountain Glenn to pee on the destroyed city. Ruby chases after him, and once she catches up to him, they hear voices. They discover them to be patrolling members of the White Fang, and the two follow the patrol to their base. On their way, the street collapses, and Ruby falls through. Zwei returns to the campsite to alert the rest of the team. He leads them back to the caved-in street, and they travel underground to help the team's leader. Once there, they reconnect with Ruby, and the White Fang leaves the underground via a train. Zwei and the rest give chase, and after boarding the train, fight off several White Fang members. After several White Fang members commandeer Atlesian Paladin-290 units, Zwei works with Oobleck to destroy them. Before the train busts into the end of the tunnel, Zwei takes shelter in a remaining Paladin. Zwei exits the Paladin, now above ground in the city of Vale. He fights alongside Teams RWBY, JNPR and CFVY to defeat the Grimm that have breached the Kingdom's defenses. After successfully holding off the Grimm, Zwei and Team RWBY return to the dorm to rest. Zwei remains at Beacon Academy for the Vytal Festival. Taiyang brings Zwei along when transporting Ruby from her mother's grave back to Beacon for the tournament matches. Zwei is seen sleeping on Blake's bed when Qrow plays a fighting videogame against his nieces. After the death of Penny Polendina, Yang takes Zwei from the girls' dorm to Beacon's courtyard to evacuate. Zwei returns to the Xiao Long-Rose household on the island of Patch with Ruby, Yang, Taiyang and Qrow after the Fall of Beacon. He is seen sleeping in Ruby's room when she leaves with Team RNJR to Haven Academy. Zwei is asleep in the living room as Tai comes home with a prosthetic arm for Yang. As Yang progresses in using it, Zwei spectates a sparring match between her and Tai. Between fights, Tai walks around Zwei to demonstrate that finding a way around obstacles is a more strategic way of fighting than using strength alone. Zwei uses his mouth to pass a towel to Tai, and he receives head rubs. After Yang leaves the island in search of Ruby, Zwei comforts Tai as he reminisces of his former team. Approximately a year later while watching TV at home with Taiyang, Zwei sees Ruby's worldwide broadcast revealing the existence of Salem, the Maidens and the Relics to all of Remnant. When the broadcast cuts off and global communications goes back down, Zwei rests his head atop Taiyang's lap to console him.

Powers and Techniques

Superhuman Physical Characteristics, Acrobatics, Statistics Amplification, Passive Aura and Forcefield Creation (All characters in RWBY have a passive forcefield called Aura. Aura is the manifestation of the user's souls and protects the from all harm as long as it's not broken or low. This is best seen when Ruby and other characters get shot by guns and explosives and not die. Aura users are also able to put their aura into objects, such as their weapons. This allows them to make their weapons more durable, stronger, and it enables the usage of dust), Extrasensory Perception and Enhanced Senses (With Aura, it is explained by Pyrrha Nikos that Ruby, and other Aura users are able to sense people from a long distance, even if they don't have a soul. Aura users are also able to see and sense each other's souls. This is demonstrated when Pyrrha unlocked Juane Arc's Aura and she was able to see and sense that he had an extreme amount of Aura. This is also shown when Ruby was able to sense that Penny had a soul, even though she was a robot), Status Effect Inducement (With his Semblance, Zwei is able to give characters the affects of the element he absorbs), Power Modification and Pierce Resistance (All Aura users are able to turn pierce damage into blunt force damage), Immortality, Regeneration and Healing (Types 1 and 6, Low-Mid, RWBY characters are able to survive getting stabbed in important organs such as the stomach, This is best seen when Blake Belladonna was stabbed in the stomach in her fight with Adam Taurus. Adam's sword was supercharged with energy it cut through Blake's Aura and wounded her insides with said power. Blake was later shown to be fine soon afterwards without any need for medical attention), Limited Soul Manipulation (With Aura, characters in RWBY are able to affect a person's souls with their attacks), Empathic Manipulation and Social Influencing (Zwei was able to make Weiss Schnee love him by looking her in the eyes even though she made it clear that it was stated Weiss doesn't like dogs), Durability Negation (All Aura users are able to use their Aura in order to ignore their opponent's durability. Lie Ren used this when his weapons was too weak to take out a pair of Grimm. He used his Aura in order to blow the Grimm up from the inside in one hit), Power Absorption and Adaptation which includes Invulnerability, Elasticity, Body Control, Power Manifestation, Superhuman Speed, Self-Sustenance, Elemental Manipulation, which includes Paralysis Inducement, Gravity Manipulation, Fire Manipulation, Electricity Manipulation, Ice Manipulation, Water Manipulation, and Air Manipulation (With Zwei's Semblance, Zwei is able to adapt to elemental attacks in order to power himself up and attack the opponents. When he was hit by Doctor Bartholomew Oobleck's fire attack, he was able to absorb the attack and become a fire ball, which amplified his attacks and one shot his opponent. He should be able to do this with every other elemental dust in the show since it has been shown that Zwei's body will adapt to an attack. He was stuffed inside of a small can and mailed to Team RWBY's dorm, likely being stuck in the mail for several days without food or water. He was seen to form his body into a cylinder and them reshape his body immediately afterwards. The container was also stuffed with dozens of cans of food. While on a train with Team RWBY and Doctor Bartholomew Oobleck, Zwei was caught up in in the crash and explosion of the train that was moving at top speeds. Zwei was not in the ice shield created from Weiss and was not in the Atlesian Paladin-290 in the time of the blast as well. After the crash and explosion, he was seen perfectly fine and was easily able to take out a Grimm in one shot), Essence Manipulation ( All Aura users are able to project their being out as a forcefield to protect themselves from harm).
Resistance to Heat Manipulation and Cold Manipulation (In Volume 7 of the show, it was stated that Aura protects users from extreme cold or heat while it is still active. This is mainly why the main cast don't need to wear winter clothing in Sub-zero temperatures), Soul Manipulation ( Aura is a projection of the user's soul, thus, it protects their body and soul. Experienced Aura users are able to resist their soul being drained. Amber was an inexperienced Aura user and when Cinder Fall went to drain her soul, it was almost immediately drained. However, when Cinder tried to take the souls from Penny Polendina and Raven Branwen, they were able to resist and get Cinder off of them), Elemental Manipulation, which includes Paralysis Inducement, Gravity Manipulation, Fire Manipulation, Electricity Manipulation, Ice Manipulation, Water Manipulation, and Air Manipulation (With Zwei's Semblance, Zwei is able to adapt to elemental attacks in order to power himself up and attack the opponents. When he was hit by Doctor Bartholomew Oobleck's fire attack, he was able to absorb the attack and become a fire ball, which amplified his attacks and one shot his opponent. He should be able to do this with every other elemental dust in the show since it has been shown that Zwei's body will adapt to an attack. He was stuffed inside of a small can and mailed to Team RWBY's dorm, likely being stuck in the mail for several days without food or water. He was seen to form his body into a cylinder and them reshape his body immediately afterwards. The container was also stuffed with dozens of cans of food. While on a train with Team RWBY and Doctor Bartholomew Oobleck, Zwei was caught up in in the crash and explosion of the train that was moving at top speeds. Zwei was not in the ice shield created from Weiss and was not in the Atlesian Paladin-290 in the time of the blast as well. After the crash and explosion, he was seen perfectly fine and was easily able to take out a Grimm in one shot), Probability Manipulation (Zwei was able to stay around Qrow Branwen and was not affected by Misfortune, Qrow's Semblance. Scales to Ruby, who was able to fight along side Qrow Branwen, who has a Semblance that gives bad luck to everyone around them. This is best seem when Ruby was able to fight with Qrow against Tyrian and didn't get incapacitated by his Semblance)

Equipment

None Notable.


Notable Techniques

Semblance

Zwei is a very intelligent dog, implied by Yang to be capable of using mechanical tools such as can openers and responding correctly to Ruby's questions when needed. As a dog, he has heightened senses of smell and hearing, which allowed him to find the White Fang soldiers in "Mountain Glenn". Likely due to his Aura, Zwei has been shown to perform feats no normal dog can do. He was first introduced compressing himself into a tube alongside dozens of cans of dog food and a can opener for an undisclosed amount of time without any ill effects on his body. Later, in "No Brakes", he is shown to be fireproof and extremely durable, as seen when he destroys an Atlesian Paladin-290 by being lit on fire and launched by Oobleck.


Other

Standard Tactics: Zwei will use his cuteness to his advantage and will usually follow his opponents. Zwei will always go for physical attacks such as headbutts or bite attacks. However, it is shown that we will be willing to absorb elemental attacks to use for attacks as well.


Weaknesses: If Zwei's Aura runs out, he will be left much weaker and he won't be able to use his Semblance.

Trivia

Allusion

  • His name is a reference to the Cowboy Bebop character, Ein, who is also a Pembroke Welsh Corgi, though of a different coloring. Eins is the German word for "one" while Zwei is German for "two".

Character&Design

  • In the credits of "Breach", Mrs. PennyApple and Penny Layne Matthews are credited as Zwei's voice actors. Said dog is Meg Turney's Dachshund, Penny.
  • Kerry Shawcross was very adamant on having Zwei's butthole on the model for RWBY Chibi, due to its comedic value, going as far as to ensure that it was included on Zwei's chibi merchandise. "Zwei Painting", one of the shorts in the 10th episode of RWBY Chibi, "Love Triangle", also focuses on Zwei's posterior.
