Shou stands at at 5'7'' (170.18 cm) tall, and weights about 150lbs (68kg). Nearly looking completely average, and unimpressive in terms of build or structure, though nothing to mock. His hair is dark, common of those of Japanese ancestry. He likes to grow the hair out long, and lets it hang. His eyes aren't the same usual black common of Japanese ancestry however, instead they have a tinge of a gold-like color speckled around his irises.

Regarding his clothing, he often wears robes symbolic of many monks. They allow easy movement with little weight. His favorite robes are a deep red with golden reflective trim, symbolic of a Ho-Oh. However when he travels he often times takes up more casual clothing, favoring the color red. He almost always will be seen with his naginata, or at the very least, something suspiciously the length of one.

Shou's personality for the most part is a very laid-back. He never took to the seriousness that most monks seem to bear, instead he only acts seriously when he absolutely has to be. Even during his rigorous training with his master, he sees it almost like a game, or fun. His way of fighting even avoids damaging, or injury unless he needs to be serious. Despite his laid-back easygoing attitude, he sticks to the grind, and has great self-motivation to do the things he set out to do. Most important of all, he is devoted to Ho-Oh, not so much because it's a legendary mythical bird, as he is devoted to the meaning and symbol Ho-Oh represents.

Through his upbringing and lessons, he stands to represent the ideals of Ho-Oh, meaning to grant those in need of second chances, and aid them through a crippling struggle. Through this, he has developed a strong empathy towards people, doing his best to aid those he comes across. He doesn't worry about himself so much as he does other people, so if you wanted to get him to start acting serious, start hurting other people, and you'll find him getting real serious real quick.

Along his travels he has adapted quite well to technology, finding it fun to tinker with and make good use of it. Having been alive since the more traditional days, he's seen the development of culture in the last century and a half, and more or less had been effected by it as well. Like his patron Pokémon, he dedicates himself to traveling along the world to find those who could use his help most. However, because of his choice to live as Ho-Oh's devote, he tries to avoid connections. A quiet fear of losing his path after the death of a loved one sits in his psyche.
Image
Shou Takeo was born in the small village of Ecruteak, about 185 years ago, when the village was little more than dojos, houses, and maybe some other things that never seemed to interest Shou. After having been born, Shou was raised up and taught about culture and tradition of Ecruteak. Living in that small village, he was always fascinated about the large gleeming tower that loomed over the horizon. After asking his parents, he heard the stories about how the monks that are seen moving in and out of the tower served a great phoenix called Ho-Oh. However, the monks had been sworn to secrecy, and wouldn't discuss their work, or let anyone within the tower. Despite the monks being held in high regard in the village, this tales were often dismissed as myths, or lies. Shou however wanted desperately to find out, and often was shooed away from the tower by monks that would find him trying to peek passed the door. Soon it lead to even trying to sneak inside, quickly being caught by the monks and brought back to his parents for chastisement. At one time, he had sworn he heard the call of the great phoenix, but no one believed him, saying he was lying or simply heard another Pokémon. On the brink of frustration, one day he simply ran as far up the tower as he could get, reaching only the second floor of course. However, one of the monks quietly chuckled, as he had heard about the boy's determination and attempts to see the truth of the tower. So he offered to bring the boy into the ranks of the monks.

Soon Shou was a monk of the Brass Tower. Doing menial tasks and slowly being taught the meanings, and values of the monks. All the while, he learned in school, and started taking martial arts classes in a nearby dojo, the master being the very monk who had taken him in, Hotaka. Hotaka taught him a fighting style that would allow Shou, a small kid, to fight without being strong, or using force. The traditional style of Judo. Shou taken to the training quite well, and loved it because of it's alignment with the moral teachings of the monks. The gift of second chances, allowing you to not inflict damage or injury on your opponent, so they may rethink themselves, and if they don't it still allows you to deal damage. Shou found himself bursting through the teachings, and pleased at the praises that he was exceptional. Soon it was less praise, and more a belief that he had to keep improving himself, as well as an obligation to his cause.

Along with the training in Judo, soon Shou was being taught how to fight with a long pole. On one end of the pole, it was weight down with heavy cloths, which at first Shou didn't understand. Soon Hotaka smiled at the progress Shou made in his training, and admitted that he had knew Shou would take to this type of weapon. Presenting him with a naginata. A long wooden pole with a simple metal bladed end on one side, explaining that this was what Hotaka had been training him to use. A weapon that could be both deadly, and yet defensive and non-lethal depending on it's use.

Once he was about the age of 16 was the first time he had been granted the honor of seeing a living legend. During a ceremony to officially make Shou a  sohei, a warrior of the monks (or at least an official apprentice of such a position), he was taken to the top of the tower, where the legendary boot roosted. The first thing Shou felt traveling up the steps was the warmth. Not an uncomfortable type, even in his heavy ceremonial robes, but a welcoming embracing warmth. Then he stopped in his tracks the moment his eyes laid upon the mythical creature. To the present day, he had never seen such a beautiful creature, the red of it's feathers were like warmth themselves, like if you touched them, your hand would pass through and be embraced in heat. Golden feathers beyond the man's conception of gold, only words could describe it as "the goldest of all gold". It's eyes seemed to see through Shou, yet take notice of everything that made him. It's presence alone seemed to push away the physical world, faded in his senses, only making room for the emenance of Ho-Oh, like it's presence was priority over such things like the ground beneath him, or the sounds in the air. Hotaka behind him chuckled as he lightly pushed Shou forward by his shoulders, to begin the ceremony. Despite that Hotaka seemed like he was a distant memory, and the world was only made up of the barest fragment of Shou himself, and all the rest of it was Ho-Oh. To this day, nothing gripped him more than that moment.

Since his ceremony, he trained even harder, soon topping the classes of Hotaka's dojo, and even developing a style all of his own, combining the practices of the naginata, and judo, creating a style that incorperated the flow and motions of judo into the strokes and guards of the naginata. In practice it worked to deflect weapons the same way Judo was used to deflect blows. Using the strikes against the user, embeding the weapon, pinning it, or simply moving it to another location all by simply directing it's force with his own naginata. Some say you could fight Shou for hours, and never scratch him, and he wouldn't be no-where near as tired as you were. The secret was that Shou barely had to exert force, only simply moving around, though he of course never indulged in these rumors, simply saying people were giving him too much praise. Hotaka however, was a master. Between them, they honestly could continue well beyond hours of motions, and flow never landing a single hit on each other, never a proper strike, at least when it came to Judo. With the naginata, Hotaka would eventually wind up with the upper hand, being a master of the weapon, as well as using it in a more traditional and offensive way than Shou. However, Shou could still last a long while without being properly struck.

Shou continued his training nearly every day, arms and limbs often sore from the constant efforts. Multiple times he's end up injured in some way or another, though he always seemed to bounce back just as good as always, and he began considering it as some kind of blessing, his body renews itself after injury thanks to Ho-Oh's power (wither or not that's true wasn't important). Eventually he ended up fracturing his leg. During the time he was off letting the injury heal, he mostly had to rest in bed and stay off of his leg. Until he took notice multiple shadows of figures pass by his window. Taking a look outside, he saw people running to and fro rather frantically. Although what really caught his eye was in the distance a small plume of smoke rising in the distance from the base of the Brass Tower.

Climbing up out of bed, holding his leg under him, bent so it wouldn't touch the ground, he grabbed his practice naginata for support, and began walking with it out of his house. Outside people were running inside, and locking up their doors. Many men had weapons out, and were directing groups of people.

Carefully Shou began hobbling over towards the path of the tower. His leg wasn't healed perfectly, but it could hold some weight. Though it was definitely not a favorable situation. Stumbling often, and falling plenty, Shou ended up approching the tower. He saw the flames before he could see the base of the tower. The smoke had easily spread along treetops, and up the wood and fabric tower. Smoke blocked out a lot of the sunlight, setting the whole scene in a gloom, mostly illuminated by the flicker of flames that light the treetops and tower alike. Shou held his arm over his face, slowly hobbling to the tower. Seeing the emenant destruction of something so sacred burned Shou from the inside, more ferociously than the flames themselves ever could do from the outside. Then his mind blanked out and he looked up the height of the tower as he heard a cry. A cry from Pokémon, cries from monks. A cry cut short as the top level of the tower collapsed a couple stories downwards, leaving the thick main-support beam naked and charred in the sky.

He couldn't leave anyone in there alive, he had to help. He had to help. He had to help. As he took a few ungraceful steps forward, someone came up from behind him, footsteps slapping against the ground. Holding himself on one leg, Shou looked over his shoulder, and saw the blade of a sword lunging forward. In a swift motion, the butt of his Naginata stretched outwards, jabbing into the shoulder of a black-clad man, stopping the length of the blade from reaching Shou, however only supporting himself on one foot, Shou fell backwards. The bandit looked down at him, holding the sword low, aimed for his chest. Shou swung his naginata, the blade crossing the man's chest... however it was mere dulled metal, only meant for practice. Shou never took a real one home, seeing no use to the lethal of a real blade. While it probably didn't feel good, the bandit knew it wasn't lethal, and with newfound confidence approched Shou, raising the blade. However the bandit found himself unable to move forward as a pole extended across his neck, and pinned him up against the chest of a man behind him. In a swift motion, the bandit's feet was swept out, his body flung to the side, and his face biting the ground.

Hotaka looked down at Shou, a firm, grim face. He didn't kill the bandit. Shou was thankful for that.
"Shou, you need to get away from here. Bandits are attacking Ecruteak. You need to take to the woods, you can't fight like this." Hotaka directed. He never saw Shou as a stupid man, never took him for a hero either, just a good boy grown into a good man. Hotaka wouldn't have ever expected that when he left to take the bandit somewhere secure, that Shou would have gotten up, and rushed into the slowly collapsing, burning tower.

Once Shou entered the tower, he began yelling out. He didn't hear a response at first, but soon there was a strong cough and sputter as a monk lifted himself up off of the ground. Under the monk was a few other men, nearly blending into the ground with the soot that coated them. It was evident that the monk had tackled them out of the way from falling debris. Shou immediately shouted for them to get outside. They quickly took the directions, and began moving passed Shou to get outside. As soon as they stepped passed, a horrible snapping sound above rang into the air directly above, and Shou without thinking about it, drove the end of the pactice naginata into the ground like a small wedge, which ended up catching the burning beams saving them by mere inches... at least until the naginata easily snapped and the weight and flames of the beams weighed Shou down from his back. Holding up the burning wood, and coughing from the smoke filling the air, he once again demanded the monks get outside. The pain in his bad leg stood as the reminder that escaping out from under the debris would most likely be impossible. The leg shouldn't even be capable of supporting this weight, it was simply the strength of his bones locking the weight up like a flesh covered wedge. The moment he moved, he'd collapse and be crushed.

Shou had no idea how long it was until another monk with a couple Pokémon drop down from one of the many holes above. Landing rather ungracefully, he quickly looked towards the exit, eyes stopping on Shou. "Get out." was all Shou could spare the monk. He looked down at the Pokémon in his arms. Maybe if he didn't have Pokémon to save, he would've helped, but he made his way under the debris Shou held up. The burns on his back had long made him dizzy with pain, his teeth being grind together as he took the pain of it... Until another round of debris fell, and everything went black.

He was furious. Not because he didn't get outside, but because he could hear screaming. Pokémon and humans alike, and if his face wasn't buried in soot and the burning wood around him, he might've been screaming too. Those screams only meant people he knew were burning away. They weren't given the luxery of suffocation like he was, though he could feel the flames across his back and his legs he couldn't feel at all. He had no idea if his eyes were open or closed, but soon light filled his world again, just briefly, as his body fell with blazing rubble to the floor below, his ears immediatly being filled with painful howls, and the scent of burnt fur and flesh. He had no idea what was happening around him, and soon his vision was black once more, though this time he was sure it's because his head had been cracked under the rubble. This time it was one of his arm's turn to lose all sense of feeling, which was a cruel blessing in the blaze of this fire.

Ears filled with the howls, and body slowly numbing after the searing pain, he lays there, furious at himself. He couldn't count the endless amount of time before all of his senses seemed to fade around him. Soon Shou would accept his death, his world reduced to merely a broken dying line of thoughts.

Ho-Oh. Your tower has burned down. I'm horribly sorry I couldn't have done something about that... but it's my honor to die here, having had served under your purpose and beauty. I only wish the sins dealt today could burn away with me, and that all could start anew... like some glorious phoenix.

Despite his senses that have burned into oblivion, he felt an every powerful presence. Like he knew just beyond a curtain something amazing could be seen. If he could smile, he would, because something like that shouldn't be in a blazing hell like this.

That last feeling was all he felt, before his eyes fluttered open. He layed in the ashes, sunlight shimmering from the gaping holes and cracks in the tower left scorched and charred from flames that had passed. He layed there because he shouldn't be able too in the first place. Just like everything around him, he should have been ash. What's more, is he could feel everything. Whatever he was laying on was damn uncomfortable. With a simple thought as that, he pushed himself up out of the ashes, stark naked in the burned ruins of his formerly beloved great Brass Tower.

He slowly made his way to the center of the room, turning his body to look around him in search of some way up to the ground-level floor. Though his eyes drifted downwards. Remnants of the tower were left behind, like old statues, charred and blackened from smoke and fire. Though something else grabbed his attention. Pawprints were left behind in the soot, though they were larger than anything he knew to leave a footprint like such. It wasn't the idea of what left them, more than the idea that something had survived... or most likely another case like him. A wonder. Though Shou had an idea of what happened, he questioned why.

Soon climbing up what remained of stairs, he approached the entrance of the tower. There he saw someone in monk's robes just outside, peering at the tower. Hotaka. Once he caught sight of Shou, his eyes widened. Obviously more than the suprise of seeing him naked, he was impossibly alive. Alive, and unharmed. Even the limp was gone, everything. Hotaka's eyes began to water, and that was probably the first and only time Shou would ever witness the aging man cry.

A brief explanation (or likely just a good guess based on myths and legends about Ho-Oh's powers) later, Shou was informed about the three unknown Pokémon witnessed to have left the tower earlier that morning. Everyone who had survived had left the tower, returning home to both fight back the attackers, and take care of their families. Though people beleive Ho-Oh was responisble for reviving the three Pokémon who had been lost in the fire, no one dared to enter the ruins. Thus no one knew Shou too had somehow survived. They believe that he too had been revived by Ho-Oh, though if it was intentional or by accedent that he was nearby the three other Pokémon, they couldn't say. Then probably the most troublesome knews, Ho-Oh had not returned, and instead vanished. The only signs of it's presence at all was a rainbow that seemed misplaced in the sky at this time of morning.

So Shou followed it. Taking this renewed life and fully pledging it to the one who had restored it, rather than returning to his home that he shouldn't have been able to reach altogether. He followed the rainbow that appeared in the sky, even if it was just dumb luck, or blind faith, he followed it.

SaturnShow
Image
Name: Krios Kozichi
Nickname: Saturn (former code-name)
Age: 30
Gender: Male
Birthplace: Pastoria City, Sinnoh
Family: mother (deceased)

Trainer Orientation: Lawful Evil
Team Affiliation: Team Galactic
Trainer Class: Galactic Boss, Scientist
Starter Pokémon: Crogunk
Image
Image
Toxicroak [Female]: Toxicroak was Krios' first Pokémon, starting off as a Crogunk who had rescued him from a group of bullies when he was little. Crogunk ended up being his only Pokémon for a long while as he went through school, all the way up to the point that Krios had met Cyrus. It was then that Krios eventually became more serious about training his Pokémon, though Crogunk could tell Krios was changing under Cyrus' guidance. Crogunk evolved into Toxicroak soon after their rigorous training began, and remains his most formidable combatant Pokémon.
Image
Bronzong [Genderless]: Bronzong was first caught as a Bronzor, and was found in the ruins north of Snowpoint City, Sinnoh. Krios was conducting research with Cyrus at the time when Bronzor had attacked. Krios soon caught it for purposes of study to see how the Pokémon related to the ruins. However, after nothing more could be studied from the Pokémon, Krios began using it along with Toxicroak for battle and training, figuring that the Pokémon could still be of use. Bronzong was the slowest of Krios' Pokémon to evolve, however eventually it has become a Bronzong soon after Galactic's original defeat.
Image
Alakazam [Male]: While in the middle of traveling home after field work with Cyrus in Snowpoint, an Abra had ended up in the middle of the road. In a quick reaction in order to avoid being struck, Abra had teleported into the vehicle driving towards it. In doing so, the Abra ended up getting caught in Krios' lap. In a bit of surprise, and shock, Krios jerked away from the sudden Abra, in the process knocking a loose Poké Ball into the sleeping Abra. The Pokémon ended up being caught in the ball, and Krios ended up keeping and training the Pokémon. After becoming a Kadabra, the Pokémon's psychic abilities were still in the process of coming under control, (forcing Krios to have it use it's elemental punching abilities instead), because of this Krios avoided evolving it further into the well known powerful psychic, Alakazam. He held off going through with the evolution until after original collapse of Galactic. Seeing as he was a former member of a team crumbing around him, he evolved Kadabra further into Alakazam before losing touch with his former members completely. Afterwards, through more training, Alakazam is a well capable Pokémon.
Image
Crobat [Female]: Another Pokémon Krios had caught early on in his fieldwork with Cyrus. They were traveling through the caves of Mt. Moon, when the Golbat swooped down from the cave top, attempting to bite Crogunk. After defeating the Golbat, Krios captured the Pokémon, as it seemed formidable, and he also liked the idea of having a Pokémon that Cyrus also used. Afterwards, it was added on his team and Krios proceeded to train Golbat along with the rest of his Pokémon. During the crises that was the falling of Galactic, and the realization of Cyrus' true intentions, Krios turned to his Pokémon for support, and connected with Golbat on a higher level, sparking her evolution to a Crobat.
Image
Octillery [Male]: Octillery was originally just a Remoraid, when Krios had encountered him along the beach of Sunnyshore. Krios was still in the process of receiving his education, and had been walking along the beach. A misstep caused mishap and commotion  among a school of Remoraid, and a particularly bold one proceeded to beam water at Krios. In the process of the scrap, Crogunk stepping in against the Remoraid, it ended up evolving during their battle. In order to finish the battle in less of a hassle, and because the newly formed Octillery was putting up a good fight against Crogunk who was out of her element, Krios caught the Pokémon. Octillery remained on Krios' team, and while He continued training the Octillery, Krios never got much use of the Pokémon, as he waited for the opportune times to use the Pokémon. After Galactic fell, Octillery continued to remain on Krios' team, awaiting eagerly the next time it can battle.
Image
Dusclops [Male]: Dusclops, originally caught as a Dusknull, was a new addition to Krios' team after the fall of Galactic. During a momentary journey around Sinnoh to gather his thoughts and reestablish his goals, Krios had encountered Duskall walking through Eterna Forest. He had heard locals talking of a haunted building in the woods, and while he wasn't afraid he still believed in the superstition, after all many amazing things existed in the world that he's seen already. Due to his lack of fear of the ghost Pokémon, a Dusknull approached him. The Dusknull seemed unsatisfied that it was unable to get a rise out of the man, and instead took to aggression. Simply to avoid the unwanted conflict, and because something about the Duskull's eagerness for attention, Krios caught the Pokémon.
Afterwords, while reforming the new Team Galactic, and establishing a research company. As it turns out, Dusclops is a favorite among Krios' new employees, as it's unafraid to mess with Krios from time to time, giving his underlings a good laugh.

Name: Raven Branwen
Nickname: 'Trash Mom'
Age: 43 (November 13th)
Gender: Female
Birthplace: Unova
Family: Qrow Branwen (Brother; Former Teammate), Yang Xiao Long (Daughter), Taiyang Xiao Long (Ex-Husband; Former Teammate), Summer Rose (Former Teammate; Desceased)

Trainer Orientation: Chaotic Neutral
Trainer Class: Tribe Leader, Huntress, Bandit, Survivor
Starter Pokémon: Murkrow
Image
Image
Gungnir [Female Honchkrow]: Gungnir was originally caught as a murkrow that grew up into a Honchkrow sometime before Raven graduated from Beacon as a Huntress. Gungnir is a reliabel Honchkrow, and the ace of Raven's team. This one in particular has similar spiked feather flaring with it's headcrest as Raven has with her hair, and it's unknown whom is taking after the other. Gungnir often expresses concern and caution towards Raven but ultimately trusts in her decisions.
Ability: [ability=moxie]
Move Pool: [attack=sucker-punch], [attack=pursuit], [attack=wing-attack], [attack=feint-attack], [attack=aerial-ace]

Sleipnir [Male Corviknight]: Sleipnir was originally a Taxi Pokémon in Galar, and one of the stronger fliers of the group. Recommended to Raven when she intended to fly out into the wilderness, she agreed to use the Pokémon and eventually after a sketchy darkspawn situation, Sleipnir decided it would rather bolster it's strength in accompanyment with Raven rather than cater to the taxi service it was brought into. It's a large and confident bird, quiet but ever imposing. This is the Pokémon Raven tends to ride when needing to travel without her Semblence. He seems to have a habit of raking his talons across hard surfaces.
Ability: [ability=pressure]
Move Pool: [attack=steel-wing], [attack=hone-claws], [attack=power-trip], [attack=drill-peck], [attack=taunt], [attack=agility], [attack=fly]

Image
Geri [Male Honchkrow]: Geri is a Honchkrow Raven caught while traveling after ending her services with Caellux. She had traveled to many regions, and Geri was a leader of a large number of Murkrow that Raven had been collecting from. After it's attempt to quash her collecting of his murder, Raven ended up simply including him. While originally inattentive towards Raven, the two learned to work together as Geri was allowed to continue working with the original memebers of his murder. This Pokémon is stubborn, and prefers indirect attacks while using numbers of Murkrow for direct damage, he's not very combative in one-on-one situations. However don't be fooled, as it often inhibits opponents and bolsters itself to prepare for combat should the attacker get past his murder.
Ability: [ability=insomnia]
Move Pool: [attack=swagger], [attack=nasty-plot], [attack=haze], [attack=night-shade], [attack=dark-pulse], [attack=quash]


Sprite edited by Dwarven Coalhome
Freki [Female Corviknight]: Freki is a Corviknight Raven had caught after leaving service with Caellux. Freki had been traveling across it's home region of Sinnoh evading a number of eager trainer's capture due to it's shiny nature. Due to the rapid nature of this Pokémon needing to make escape after escape in order to retain it's freedom, it would often run into Raven who was also intending to keep out of the bustle of the populations of the region.
At first, Raven was not interested in the Corviknight. Raven felt her team she'd built prior was sufficient, and she saw that Freki wanted her freedom, which Raven could respect. However, after Raven defended it from an Ace-Trainer who'd managed to scope out the Pokémon, as well as seeing Raven didn't value the Pokémon for the fact that it was shiny, the Pokémon followed Raven. After seeing her lenient and loose use of her Pokémon often sending them out to handle things on their own, the Pokémon decided it would be better to work with Raven, understanding the protection from capture that being a trainer Pokémon would bring. Raven agreed.
Ability: [ability=mirror-armor]
Move Pool: [attack=iron-defense], [attack=steel-wing], [attack=hone-claws], [attack=fury-attack], [attack=drill-peck]
Image
Draupnir [Female Rookidee]: Draupnir is one of the many Rookidee that has worked with Raven, but has taken particular interest in following her around and keeping watch in her immediate vicinity. While outside, it can be seen fluttering from perch to perch as Raven moves along about her business, always aiming for the broadest view it can get on the area, however while indoors, the bird Pokémon remains tucked in on Raven's shoulders, often tucking in under her hair at the back of her neck whenever it is assumed a location is safe. While this behavior wasn't an instruction on Raven's part, she appreciated the effort and while at first was simply not adverse to this behavior, she's come to welcome it.
Ability: [ability=keen-eye]
Image
Raven very much shares resemblance with her daughter Yang, and already Yang has closed in on her height, Raven standing only an about an inch taller at 5'9''. Despite her largely still youthful appearance, at the right angles age lines are visible below Raven's red colored eyes, and while usually stern, her expressions tend to lean on those of wearied experience. Raven allows her hair to grow and fall just further than her eyes, curling in towards the center, most of her hair extends down to her waist, while the rest is pulled into a loose ponytail allowing her hair to curve upwards. At a glance the curls that curl up from her ponytail often have an uncanny resemblance to a raven's feathers. Her hair is accented with a red banana that blankets the top portion of her ponytail, simple in design being red with white stitching along the edges. While she is slim and small of build she has long legs and wide hips, and is deceptively athletic and built.

Raven typically wears what is akin to a very stylized and shortened karategi, favoring it's loose and light weight, however much like how one would wear a traditional kimono, Raven uses red fabrics like an obi, wrapping from below her bust to her waist, in order to keep the light clothing from billowing and slimming down her profile. Over the sleeves, she has fastened scale-plated red gauntlets, with finger-less black gloves underneath. Due to the shortness of the karategi, she wears a black pleated skirt with black shorts beneath, billowing out from under the obi from her hips. Around the obi, she's fastened and secured everything and covered her waistline with what outwardly appears to just be squared sections of red and black padding, underneath the red fabric is hiding a coat of plates style armoring. All of this is once-more secured and fastened by a black belt that buckles into this armoring and allows the securing of her weapon Omen's sheath, and a couple of accessories. These accessories including a length of tattered fabric, matching the design of her bandanna, of which she has a second one draped along the larges of the armor sections, one that seems older and frayed along the edges. Underneath the same section is the last of the accessories, being a wreath of Murkrow feathers, secured to the fasteners underneath the armored section and dangling at her thigh like a tassel. Lastly, Raven wears thigh-high leg warmers that widen and billow over her plated boots that cut off just above the ankle and under the larger calf muscles.

She largely prefers lighter clothing, and finds the three portions of protection sufficient enough, one high, one mid, and one low, largely utilizing it for the balancing of her weight.

Raven is first and foremost cynical, having seen many things fail and many forms of hardships through the year with very little in the world seeming to make progress against the rougher edges of life in the world, despite how seemingly pleasant and happy everything is on the surface. She believes that she has become something of an expert at picking up the pieces of a failed idea and using them to at the very least get what she needs done, done. She has a layer of ambition however that while far more present in her youth, still lingers and pushes her forward with planning ahead and starting preparations for what is to come, believing that while things often don't go as planned, having no plan is simply welcoming this failure. She believes in individual strength, and has a mindset that one is to rely on themselves first before relying on the support of others, often taking this philosophy to the extremes in spite of herself and the relationships she cares about.

She is often her own enemy, putting her ideals and plans first before herself, with the idea that acting on her personal wants is selfish, while acting on her ideals and philosophies is more selfless. Ultimately she is attempting to do what she thinks is best, even if it hurts those around her, as well as herself. With her own realizations of how her behavior affects others, she resorts to exclusion, intending to solve their issues by removing herself, believing that for some people, she may only be in the way of goals. This behavior is an extension of her high value in independence and individualism, wanting to allow others to follow their own path without obstruction, rather than attempting to compromise both individuals' goals and cooperating.

Under all the layers, there is still a lingering want for a connection, with her lack of proper family, and growing up with no one more than her twin brother and hooligans she's met along the way, she's built a concept that all relationships are forged rather than inherent, yet this often leaves her wanting as she struggles to find a balance between her philosophies and her emotions. her touch of impulsiveness with interactions doesn't help and is a trait she wished she was better at subduing.
