Canon

Clover Ebi was a member and leader of the Ace Operatives. His Semblance was Good Fortune, which allowed him to manipulate probability in a positive way. It was shown as the opposite of Qrow Branwen's Bad Luck Semblance.

Fandom

Following Clover's introduction in V7, many began to speculate on what his Semblance would be and accurately predicted that is was Good Fortune.

Some called Clover's death and instance of Bury Your Gays, but others pointed out that he had not been confirmed to be LGBT. The hashtag #CloverDeservedBetter is used by fans as a rallying point for those who take issue with his death.

Common Tropes and Fanon

  • The headcanon that Clover is gay is very common. However there is much discussion over if Clover was intentionally coded as gay and whether this plays into queer baiting and the negative Bury your Gays trope.
  • Fix-it or Resurrection: There are many fanworks that avert Clover's death and bring him back to life.
  • Greying Hair: Many fanartist's draw Clover with greying hair, often to match Qrow.
