Appearance
Short dusty brown hair sits on her head in an uncontrollable mop. Though she keeps it held in place with a red bandana which is always wrapped firmly around her head. A constant hard expression is always present on her face when around strangers. Her skin that was once pale and soft is now tanned and rough thanks to many months of torturous traveling and surviving. Months of being nothing but alone has left this girls once dark chocolate brown eyes hard and untrusting. Any fat on Raven is now gone, due to months of starvation, each of her ribs very visable to the naked eye. Faint muscle lines can be seen on her body from her constant walking and often times, running. Dressed in dirty torn, and very baggy clothes this girl looks to be anything but a threat. Her dark blue shirt has many tears, luckily none are to revealing, the same goes for her pants. The once slightly fitting fabric has grown as she shrank, now barely touching her skin. She needs new clothes but everytime she goes to find some, something comes up. Small scars can be seen all over her body, probably from fighting, though most of them are from falling. Though she now carrys the body and skin of a apcolypse hardened teenager she also still has the face of a child. Every since she as little Raven's face never seemed to change to much.
Personality
At a young age Raven was forced to grow up, so even at such a young age little Raven has the mind of an adult. Normally she is withdrawn and socially akward, not trusting anyone until she truly gets to know them. Long periods of silence aren't unheard of when it comes to her. One might think she is very calm, well they would be wrong. Raven has quite a temper and isn't afraid to use it. She may not be the smartest in the world but she certianly is cunning and clever, able to solve trick problems. Though she lost many of her once defining qualities during the apocolypse she still kept some, her ability to dream, to laugh, to smile, and to hope... Anyone who takes a chance and becomes her friend will soon realize this. One may think it odd and useless at a time like this but Raven seems to have quite a gift when it comes to animals. She can often be found with a pack of dogs who she has amazingly befriended, or sadly enough killing one who has been suffering in illness. Though it breaks her heart she knows she can't just let all these animals suffer and more often then not Raven is forced to kill them which has damaged her heart. She views killing animals almost as bad as killing another human being, though she has killed plenty of humans all the same. Raven has always been able to manipulate people to her will, trick them into doing whatever she wants though she does this rarely.
History
Raven has quite a history to her so take a seat my little children and lend me your ear. Raven was born in a small state in a small homy town, it was a very nice place to grow up honestly. Her family always lived nearby, her mother always there. Raven had a step father but Dennis was always cruel to Raven. Screaming at the poor toddler for things she didn't know were wrong. When he wasn't screaming he was on his computer, completely ignoring his family. Raven missed her daddy, because he wasn't all bad! So she snuck into his office during the night and scribbled all over his computer screen with her marker before slipping off to her bedroom like a bandit. There were many instances where Dennis was cruel and mean to Raven though there were many where he was sweet and gentle with her. One day little Raven got a sister, well, a half-sister to be precise and her name was Hunter (True Story). Raven loved Hunter at first, but of course then came the jealousy, why didn't mommy and daddy treat HER like that? One day she went up to Hunter and grabbed her cheeks, pinching them till the little girl screamed and cried. This of course ended with a bare bottom spanking with the spoon. Ah the spoon, it hung on the wall with a zebra painted on it. It hung next to a fork, just like any decoration. One wouldn't even begin to imagine that this spoon was used for spankings. Lets skip ahead a few years shall we... Raven turned five and her mommy and daddy had long since divorced, typical for an american family. Though she didn't really care, she was young and didn't quite understand it. But what she did understand was that she got two christmas' each year! Now it was around this time that her mom decided to take her and move, her mothers name was Mysti by the way. So off they went half way across the country, with Aunt Shelly driving all the way. Stuck in the back seat with her whiny cousin was poor Raven, forced to sit still of get in trouble with her mean aunt. After two days of driving they arrived and Ravens birthday had gone and past, she was now 6. She lived in a double wide trailer with her grandmother, her aunt, her uncle, and her mom. Aunt Shelly and Amber had driven back to her home town after about a day. Now it was fantastic, living in that trailer park in Georgia she loved it. Her grandmother was always nice to her, though she hated her 13 year old aunt, oh how she loathed her. Kathrine and Raven hated each others guts, little did they know when they grew up they would be the best of friends. A few months later a girl named Cheyenne moved in and Raven and her became quick friends. The two were the only girls in the trailer park who were even close to each others ages. They were both 7 at the time. They played until Ravens mother switched the porch light on, then it was time to come in. Nanny Kathrine and Stephen had long since moved out and into another trailer. So now it was just her, and her mom. However there was a women named Lisa who had a daughter named Brittany. Brittany and Raven were very good friends and so were Lisa and Mysti, so Raven called her Aunt Lisa. Lisa came over very often and her and and Ravens mother went into her bedroom. Raven didn't know that they were doing Meth in that room. Again lets skip forward, Raven was still 7 but now she was spending time at her grandmothers house with Amber who was visiting, Aunt Shelly, Kathrine, and Steven. A hurricane had hit.... Hurrican Ike. Raven didn't think anything of it, it was just a really big storm to her, until she heard the screaming. The screams were coming from Cheyennes older sister. Cheyenne shirt had gotten stuck on a drainage ditch, she was drowning! After the hurricane Raven ran outside and went to play with Cheyenne, her only friend who was only 6 years old. Mysti grabbed her however, and shook her head saying Cheyenne was dead. She didn't understand so she didn't cry, she just went back inside. Now it was time for Cheyenne's Funeral and Raven was smiling happily. She had never been to a funeral before, she was dressed in the prettiest black dress she'd ever seen. She promised her mother she wouldn't cry today. So they went inside and Raven up to the coffin and peeked in. She looked so pretty.. Like a little sleeping porcelin doll, her face had looked so soft and she was in such a pretty white dress. Raven couldn't help herself as she reached in and stroked the little girls face, it was so soft. She touched her hair too, she couldn't believe it she had touched a dead person! She quickly turned away and for some reason, right when Lisa and Mysti said they were leaving tears stung at Cheyenne. Perhaps it was because Raven realized she was never going to see Cheyenne again, this was her last goodbye. So they left, and Raven was the only one who looked back. Now for another time skip... Raven was 8 years old when she went back to MA to live with her Aunt Shelly and those were the worst and best years of her life. 1 and 1/2 she lived with that demon, she forced Raven to go to bed at 7pm sharp, had to get ready for bed at 6:30 regardless of the fact that Raven was 8! So she lived there till she was 9, she finally got her birthday party in April, three months after her actual birthday. (Okay this is depressing me, time skip) About four months after her 14th birthday Raven left to go on vacation with her grandmother Nancy. This was the first time Raven had seen her Aunt KK in around 5 years. Almost as soon as they arrived however, the apocolypse happened...
