Ess Ste

Ess Ste is the only character from Team SLME that was killed prior to RWBY. She was Sasha Elnirez's partner.

Appearance
Not much is known about Ess' outfit, as she was only seen from chest and up in a picture from Mack Reapen's journal. She wore a white jacket with a white shirt, representing Prisms and their variety of color.

Semblance
Ess' Semblance was only seen by Mack Reapen, with Mack explaining it to Ruby Rose. Ess' Semblance was named Water Knife, when Ess would copy one's weapon in a water-like form, much like Velvet Scarlatina's Semblance. However, these weapons could only be used for striking, and ranged weapons would not have any ammunition.

Death
Ess' death is unknown as of now. She died prior to the events of RWBY. Mack Reapen and Sasha Elnirez suspected that Ess' death was traced back to the Grimm.
