Neopolitan, also known as Neo, is an antagonist in RWBY. She is the right-hand woman of Roman Torchwick and an associate of Cinder Fall. Her weapon of choice is an umbrella with a concealed blade. Her Semblance is the ability to create physical illusions that can be shattered on impact, or used to cloak herself in various disguises.

Neo, themed after neapolitan ice cream, has the appropriate trio of colors in her hair and on her outfit. While sometimes altered via illusion for disguise, her hair color is typically half pink and half brown, with white streaks on the pink side.

Neo's natural eye color changes between brown, pale pink, and white, and they can alternate coloration in differing combinations, with this ability apparently being entirely under her control. Because of this, she tends to temporarily have a condition known as heterochromia iridum, where the eyes of a subject have two different colors.

Neo is also rather diminutive in stature, standing at 4'10" in heels.

Neo is confident, graceful, and playful. She exhibited a stern, business-like demeanor at the White Fang meeting. When intervening to help Roman following his defeat, she wore a self-assured smile and politely bowed to Team RWBY, despite being outnumbered. Neo's confidence was also seen in her fight with Yang, smiling throughout the entire duel, whilst silently mocking and taunting her as well.

Neo also showed herself to be very acrobatic and exceptionally skilled in hand-to-hand combat, relying on her agility to dodge and redirect enemy attacks before retaliating with her kick-based combat style.
