Name:Rachel Roth
Alias:Raven
Species:Interdimensional half-human, half-demon
Age:16
Gender:Female
Team Affiliation:Teen Titans
Member Group: Hero
Canon: Yes
Appearance:
Raven stands at about 5"2 always dawning a purple coak of darkness with the head shapped like a Raven never really taking it off unless highly needed. Covering the cloak is actually a purple leotard that is never taken off. Over that is are six yellow circles with violet-red gems inside of them and over her small gloves is the same circle and gem.Three inches below that are purple shoes about an an inch away from her ankles that match her cloak of darkness.Yet under that cloak is a girl the first thing you see is her chakra stone of red shapped like a small diamond that states her Azarath heritage and helps her to control the darker passions of her soul-self. Around that stone is flawless gray skin showing her different from mot people.
Flowing downward and two inches down her back is long black hair that is usually covored by her cloak. The next feature from that would be her stunning indigo eyes that are usually stoic and unless grossed out by something. Her long legs are another fine feature she has for they help her with running away if she cannot use her powers. She also has short arms that are usually used for the simple things in her life like holding a book, or food. Al though these are all wonderful features underneath that calm personality is a demon. Al though it may seem like she has two eyes when she takes on her demon form she has four eyes that turn into a red burning color that make most people stray from her.
Personality:
When learning about Raven's personality she is clever meaning she is mentalilly quick, and able to think fast on her feet while in danger. Al though this is actually sometimes assumed as cockyness Raven knows well that basically it is just her personality showing. The next trait when looking at Raven is how straightforward she is when it comes to things. She never lies unless it is needed and tells people how she truly feels when annoyed at jokes that aren't actually funny.
Though at other times she is moody. That means she is gloomy, depressed, or seen in sullen moods while around friends usually talking in a dry voice not seeming to care about much, though showing expression when surprised just like any other person. When it comes to humor it is very dry kind of a straight-faced, mildly sarcastic or ironic tone. Though all in all Raven basically shows she truly cares for her friends because she isn't completely heartless.
Raven is the most mature member of the group, often giving advice to the others about various subjects, and always stays calm even in desperate situations. But she is, however, the most emotionally-restrained of the Titans, being secretive and distant; she does not allow any of her fellow members into her room and spends most of her time by herself, usually meditating or reading one of her many books

Strengths and Weaknesses:
Strengths
Telekinesis:
Raven can move things with her mind and this is her most commonly used power. When she moves objects she projects her dark energy upon them, once telling Cyborg that she places a part of herself into the object she moves, implying this may be an extension of her soul-self. Though the upper limits of this ability has not been tested, Raven is capable of lifting and throwing objects many dozen times her own body weight.
Empathy
Raven can sense and manipulate the powers of others to glean an idea of their thoughts, control her own emotions and heal people.
Levitation
Raven can levitate of the ground and fly, without visible projection of her dark energy as is shown when she utilizes telekinesis. Her power is also sufficient to enable her to counter the gravitational pull of other planets.
Astral Projection
Raven can project her soul from her corporeal form at will, usually in an energy form of her physical shape or as a black raven. In her soul-self, Raven is capable of traversing through dimensional boundaries, transporting herself and four others through vast distances, phase through almost all kinds of physical barriers, ranging from solid obstacles to walls of fire, disperse visions of the future, dispel physical manifestations of suppressed fears, overwhelm projectors of vast psionic energies, mentally attack and stun another, enter and see into the mind of another, including observing their emotions and memories and communicate to the person, take control temporarily over a willing person’s body and experience whatever the person is experiencing, escape from perilous situations by flying away, physically grasp others in midair or assail others, reach back in time through a swirling lightning-filled vortex-portal back five millennia to return another back to the time and place he originated from, project the soul-self as a physical solid barrier capable of deflecting rain (a form of energy-umbrella), while simultaneously retain her own soul within her body. The soul-self has been known to gain red and black when Raven releases a particularly great surge of power through it or when she is unleashing emotions of intense rage or fear, as well as appear in a shape identical to that of Raven’s physical form, albeit composed of pure dark energy. A smaller version of the soul-self in green can be conjured by Raven without projecting her own spirit after an intense positive emotional upsurge and being tutored in centuries of potent mystical lore. Raven’s powers can take on the form of white energy, as shown in four separate occasions, from the breaking of her inner mind from insanity without friendship, Raven’s soul-self takes on a pure-white form to envelop Trigon, forever cleansing his stain on her world and Arella’s, undoing all the harm he had wrought, her greatest feat in the entire series. Furthermore, Raven is capable of extending the soul-self’s individual body parts through her own corporeal body. Raven at times uses her mantra to project the soul-self, yet many times has been shown to be capable of projecting it through mere will alone.
Teleportation
Raven can teleport herself and other long distances in the shape of a giant raven or by simply traveling through dark energy using portals. She uses the incantation "Azarath Metrion Zinthos" as a focus in battle. However, Raven has displayed far greater powers, but seems reluctant to make use of said powers; Raven is the most emotionally withdrawn of the Titans, due to her formidable powers being directly controlled by her every emotion - in order to use her power without causing excessive collateral damage, she must exercise intense control over her emotions. To maintain this control she makes use of potent magical artifacts such as her mirror, which enables her to directly manipulate her complex mental landscape, and spends much of her time in meditation.
Intangibility
Raven is able to go through objects almost like phasing.
Dark Energy Constructs
In many episodes, it is shown that Raven can make a variety of energy constructs from her dark energy, ranging from walls to flying platforms to claws to projectiles to shields (usually dome-shaped), with these constructs temporary and subject to her will. In the episode "Trouble in Tokyo", it is also showed that she can make these fields into platforms and move them. Raven is able to raise shields with an extremely high degree of imperviousness to damage from nearly any kind of assault, be it physical or energy-based (magical or not) in nature, though the durability of these shields have been shown to vary due to a variety of unclear factors.
Above-Average Physical Condition
Though perhaps not the most physically talented of the fivesome, Raven is nonetheless a skilled hand-to-hand fighter, having received at least some degree of physical training and reasonable human physical capabilities.
Multilingualism (Septilingualism)
Raven is a skilled polyglot, capable of fluently speaking English, German, Latin, Romanian, Ancient Sumerian, and Sanskrit.
Weaknesses
-Showing emotion for it may be her downfall in a battle
-Not meditation for her powers may go out of control without focus and calmess
-Still half human and can die just like anybody else
History:
Raven was born toTrigon a demon and Arella Roth,on a planet called Azarath. Raven's childhood on Azarath was mainly spent training with the monks in the art of meditation and magic in order keep herdark powers she inherited from her father under control. Due to that she was and is forced to repress any intense emotion resulting in a stoic demeanor and unemotional personality.
Though when her training had ended, Raven learned of her horrible destiny connected to her birth. When that happened she left the safety of her birthplace, to go to her mother's, home Earth. When she arrived at her she was in a place called Jump City. At that moment her other destiny was put right out in front of her, while meeting several super-powered teens fighting a rampaging alien girl.
Raven managed to figure out the girl's true reason for her destruction work and convinced the others into a more peaceful approach, which won them the alien's friendship. In fact she even said her name which was Starfire. Raven didn't think much of it, and somehow despite Raven's obvious insecureness, the others invited her into joining their group defeating the most hostile aliens in the galaxy. One of them were the Gordanians, who had attempted to enslave Starfire-, and her presence proved ultimately essential to the motley crew's triumph over the Gordanians. Soon after, the group decided to stay together and they formed the Teen Titans.
But Raven, still felt alienated from her new friends and remained distant from them. When more years went by everyone, learned more about her origins. First, Beast Boy and Cyborg ended up stranded inside Raven's own mind, where they met and met the personifications of her separated emotional aspects and also encountered and fought the manifestation of Trigon's heritage inside her.After that, a backfired plot by the Puppet King left Raven and Starfire stuck in each other's body, creating a new sense of empathy between the girls. Lastly, when Robin was haunted by a drug-induced hallucination of his enemy Slade, Raven linked with his mind and saw glimpses of Robin's past, including his initiation by Batman.
When that episode ended Raven served the Titans for years, working alongside the other four and using her power with theirs to save Jump City from villainous menaces, invaluable to their success. However, Raven's past caught up with her and on her birthday, Slade who had been presumed to be dead at the time reappeared, wielding new powers and marked with a symbol which Raven could not fail to recognize. Slade deliberately led the Titans to the place where Raven's true destiny was to be fulfilled which was to serve as a living portal forTrigon to conquer Earth.
Seeing no other option, Raven finally told her teammates the truth about her past. However to her surprise they didn't reject her, and only remained with her and took the greatest pains to prevent this from happening.But, Slade and an army of Trigon's fire demons attacked Titans Tower to get Raven. The Titans decided to fight him, but Raven, un-able to see her friends hurt on her behalf, knocked them out of the fight, but also put some of her powers to protect them from the apocalypse that was coming.
When the portal was opened, Raven was consumed, but her human half remained alive in Trigon's domain. Sadly she was reverted to childhood and left powerless. Left in a world turned into a living hell, the Titans still refused to give up without a fight, and with some help from Slade, who had been betrayed by Trigon, Robin made his way to Raven and took her back to the surface, even though Raven was spiritually shattered by her role in the shaping of events.
Finally, the Titans and Slade faced Trigon in a final battle royal of dark and light. But as they were struck down, Raven realized that all was not hopeless, and this sparked up her low spirits back into life and let her regain her powers and her true age. Under her new-found righteous wrath, she used the sum of her powers to destroy Trigon, reverting Earth back to the way it was and finally ridding herself from the last vestiges of her horrible fate. She is now seventeen and finding new members for the Teen Titans, so the world can be saved once more.
Roleplay Example:
"not again."Those words escaped Raven's mouth as she awoke from her dream. Things were still the same quiet and dark in the sky like usual. In a blue cloak Raven transported herself to the rest-room and the many other esential areas of the TitanTower. Everything was still quiet on her end till a huge boom was heard. A hole was in the wall as Raven was ready for battle. Her hands glowing a black color, as she stepped back.
"Azarath Metrion Zinthos!"
A boulder was thrown at a figure as he kicked it into ruble walking over to Raven. Thinking quickly Raven picked up some of the boulders and threw them at the figure. He kept punching them apart, and Raven kept on throwing them. Till the figure was in the middle of the Tower, and Raven pulled down half the tower. The man was crushed, as the girl tured the figure threw a huge boulder at her. "What tha--" Her words were cut short, as she was knocked down. A boot was then felt on her body, as it was crushed.
"He will return and I will prevail!!"
Raven's eyes went wide as she tried lifting her head a bit. But didn't work till the boot was removed and the man talked. "Well---Well-- Well you and your--" Slade's words were cut short as Raven yelled. "Azarath Metrion Zinthos!!" He was shot back till Raven got up, and looked out the window Slade gone. "I--must tell the others." Walking the best she could Raven limped to the living room, and planned to tell the others.
