Mercury Black



Mercury Black is an antagonist in RWBY. He is an associate of Cinder Fall and partner of Emerald Sustrai.

In When the Cold Breeze Blows Away, he is an SS-Obersturmbannführer of the Nazi Union and Waffen-SS, a Drache trooper commander, a member of Cinder's team, Yang's enemy (even when he joined the Nazi Union),  Irene Engel's replacement, and a mentor to the Unified Capitalist Revolutionary Dictatorship infantries, Irken invaders, Redcoats, and among other infantry types of the Coalition of the Red Star.

Before he joins the Nazi Union, he was dead and had lost his head by the Headhunter when he and his team had been killed by food poisoning. During the Beacon War, a Veil heavy trooper, Dominik Bodmer, is carrying the corpse of Mercury Black (without a head; but it was covered in sheets to ensure censorship throughout the story) to make sure that Fegelein can revive him by the reviving machine, then Drache troopers are using the reviving machine to revive him and restore his lost head to have his head on his headless corpse once again by the reviving machine in body part regrowing mode, and also, the Drache troopers are using the reviving machine to revive him again to make him alive once more.
