Raven smirked slightly at the sarcastic remark that her comment was hilarious, she could easily appreciate a little sarcasm now and then. "Can't say I was trying to be funny. Granted it possibly sounded that way." Came her response, her popping another fry into her mouth.
She watched Sonnet for a moment as she hinted that Raven likely paid no attention to news worthy goings on. She then gave a small shrug. "I know there's trouble about. But I also know the media, and its bad habit of embellishing things." She stated, gesturing slightly with the next fry that she picked up. "Guess you could say that I wanted to find out if it really was all that bad. And from your rather stern reaction to my 'entrance' then it would seem that they were actually right."
She tilted her head back a little, another hint of a smirk going over her lips. "You say it's not good for people like me ... does that count you as well?"

After the woman left in order to collect her food order and sent some in her own direction, Raven rose an eyebrow up. She wasn't exactly used to random strangers being quite so sharing. Particularly when she wasn't even expecting anything in the first place. "Uh, thanks." She spoke, digging in her own pocket and grabbing out a bank note enough to cover it, and sliding it across to her. She didn't really like to owe anyone anything.
As Sonnet introduced herself while digging into her food, Raven picked up a single french fry and popped it in her mouth. "I'm Raven." She responded, choosing the nickname that she was getting used to, rather than her actual name. She wasn't sure if she could ever trust anyone enough to say the name Rina again.
She picked up another fry, the touch as slow and stable as the first, almost as if she were barely touching it. In a way she was, she was forever testing her limitations. "You could say I've been floating about from place to place. Thought I'd see how the situation was out this way." She answered with a mild shrug of her shoulders.

Raven followed the woman into what appeared to be a burger place. Her wrinkling her nose very briefly, more from going from what was fresh air and into somewhere with the usual mesh of cooking smells. She would be able to ignore it however momentarily.
She watched in mild amusement the reaction that the woman received from the workers. It seemed that she wasn't a stranger to the place, and possibly not particularly a welcomed sight either. Her attention was brought back as she was urged towards a seat.
She gave a mild shrug of her shoulders and sat herself down casually, one leg draping over the other. She half let out a mild chuckle as the woman then explained that those dubbed as Metas weren't liked in the area. She tilted her head a little to the side, her dark eyes lighting up in amusement. "Oh, I wondered what all the fuss was about. Thought it was just because I'm a woman. I mean sexist pigs are pretty much everywhere." She commented. It was clear however that she wasn't being serious.

It was the early part of the evening and Raven had decided that the best thing to do was to have a little indulgence. In her case this meant finding a bar and enjoying a few drinks. When it came to bars she didn't have much in the way of preference. One moment she would be content in finding somewhere close to a slum, particularly when she felt like causing chaos. Then another time she preferred going a little more upmarket. Right now she was in the mood for a little more sophisticated. Finding a smarter bar, where all the staff were smartly dressed, hair smoothed into a neat style. Not a single tattoo or over sized piercing in place. It was open, with mirrors strategically placed on the walls to give the impression that it was larger. For Raven herself, she was looking smart, yet casual, in trousers and a fitted sleeveless top. An easy feat considering her entire wardrobe consisted of degrees of black. She was sat on one of the tall stools, her feet barely near the foot rest. She smiled and gave a brief nod to the man on the other side of the bar, who had passed her a tumbler glass with a few fingers height of whiskey. Raising the glass she took a small sip, nodding slightly to herself from the taste. She then cast her gaze around to take a look at the other patrons. @milagetz

Raven went along with the woman, watching where they were going, as well as the manner in which she moved. She glanced briefly over her shoulder, a part of her disappointed that they weren't going to be followed. She wouldn't have minded finding out just how this woman would have reacted to that.
As it was remarked that she wasn't from around the area Raven started to chuckle to herself. "Was it the accent that gave it away? I know I don't sound like a typical yank." She spoke, not able to help herself in referring to American's by the very typical English slang. Her accent wasn't as severe as what was considered to be a cockney as depicted in television, but it was still noticeable to an extent.
"I figured that there were enough weirdos in these parts that another one wouldn't matter." She added with a shrug, before slipping a hand casually into the pocket of her jeans.
For now she waited to see just where they were going to end up. Taking note of her surroundings and whether she needed to be on guard in regards to her helpful stranger.

Upon hearing the almost immediate abusive attitude from those that were nearby, Raven rose a single eyebrow up. She was actually somewhat amused by it. She chuckled under her breath, virtually waiting for the trouble to start, therefore giving her an opportunity to start some real trouble. She flexed her fingers a little, feeling a charge of strength go through her in preparation.
She was just about to make a derogatory remark about the verbal abuser's mother when her attention was caught, via the smart dressed woman who had now taken hold of her elbow. She settled her gaze on the woman, and noted the way that she spoke. It was just enough to pique her curiosity.
"Alright then." She gave a slight nod as she spoke. There however was a hint of suspicion on the motives. "Lead on."

Unlike most travelling by flying was a cheap method for Raven, particularly being as she could literally fly just by the means of thinking about it. For this reason she had managed to go from state to state, managing to explore the highest points around.
She had been about New York City for but few minutes, her landing on top of a large building in order to take in the sight before her. A grin made its way over her lips. With how busy the place was below she would have no problem in stirring up some trouble. Even just something small. Anything was possible.
She moved to the edge of the building and looked down below. Anything down on the ground looked no more bigger than a tiny speck of dirt. That was at least one disadvantage for her, she wouldn't have minded having super sharp sight to be able to see more detail.
With a small shrug of her shoulders she stepped off the edge and allowed herself to free fall down the many storeys below, getting a certain adrenaline shrug as for that moment it was the same as any human falling from such a great height. As the ground drew nearer, just a mere eight feet above she suddenly slowed until she landed virtually silently onto her feet.

[attr="class","hopelovetitle"]APPEARANCE [attr="class","hopelovetop"][attr="class","hopelovesub"]
HAIR // Black[break] EYES // Black here[break] SKIN // Fair[break][break]
ATTIRE[break][break] Black. This is what she usually wears. Usually in casual style. Black Jeans or leggings. Black strappy top, along with an old leather jack that she's owned since her late teens. Typically black boots to increase her short stature. [break][break]
GENERAL[break][break] Raven is short, 5'4 to be exact. She has a slight build, that suggests that she keeps in shape. She's generally classed as pale, more due to her avoiding too much sun, and of course the use of high factor sun screen. Having dark hair and eyes just seems to amplify this. She could easily be mistaken for being gothic, but usually she wears only a minimal amount of make-up. Generally a splash of colour on her lips. Her torso and limbs have a range of scarring of various sizes and depths, from various injuries that she has sustained.
[attr="class","hopelovetitle"]PERSONALITY [attr="class","hopelovetop"]
Raven suffers from a short temper. Her anger tends to get the better of her and normally with violent results, a bad combination considering her abilities. She is a loner by heart usually preferring the company of herself, though she will mingle with others as long as it's a small group. Though she claims to not care about anyone other than herself she will on occasion listen to her cold heart. [break][break] Due to her upbringing she has severe trust issues. She is always looking for the bad side of people and trying to bring it out. This doesn't mean that she doesn't have a vulnerable side, she can also be empathic when it comes to others with similar bad backgrounds.
[attr="class","hopelovetitle"]HISTORY [attr="class","hopelovetop"]
Raven didn't have the most ideal childhood. The man that brought her up as his daughter wasn't truly her father, she was in fact the result of an affair that her mother had with another man. A man who had promised her mother that he would help leave her abusive husband. Alas this was not to be the case. Instead he abandoned her mother shortly after she was born. When it was clear that she was not his daughter her step father took his rage out her from a young child. Her mother, feeling guilty of the betrayal allowed the abuse to occur and cut off any maternal instincts from her daughter, and instead poured her attention onto her older son. [break][break] As Raven grew older she realised the abuse she got at home wasn't normal for a child. But by this time she was already blossoming into a young woman. Finally she decided to leave home at the age of sixteen. Since she grew up in England, it was common for some to leave home that young. But the damage had been done though, the mental and physical abuse left her unstable. [break][break] She took almost instantly to petty theft while she lived on the streets in order to survive. By mistake she killed a man that she was mugging via a brick which was nearby, which put her on a road to more crime. All the while she drifted, never staying in one place for too long, her gradually making her way round the small country that she lived in. She ended up in prison on more than once occasion, serving several months at a time. [break][break] At the time that The Event happened she was serving yet another term for GBH when her abilities manifested. During an argument with another prisoner she inadvertently ripped the door off a cell. This quickly helped her to make an escape, an easy feat once she realised that no door or wall could stand in her way. It was shortly after that she realised strength wasn't the only thing that was different about her. Once outside and on the run she simply thought that it would be so much easier if she could fly. Much to her amazement she found herself flying up into the sky. It was difficult at first, but she soon realised that whatever she thought in regards to flying that she could do it. If she thought about twirling in the sky, then she would twirl. [break][break] With her new found abilities she chose to leave the small island, her testing out her flight as she went. Her finding it easy to travel from country to country. The downside being that she struggled to control her strength, something she eventually started to understand. There unfortunately for some people she came into contact with became a victim of whether she intended it or not. She just needed to be as light and gentle as possible in order to do what everyone else took advantage of. [break][break] Whilst she was touring Europe she met an older man in his early thirties who had also been affected by the event that attempted to be her protector. It turned out she needed no protecting. Her experience with her step father made her untrustworthy of anyone, especially men. The male however remained by her side for a few months, in an attempt to change that. It was during that time that she was dubbed Raven by him, due to her appearance and her darkening behaviour. Her companion was not to last, just as she was getting closer to him he announced that he was moving on. This in turn brought out a rage that had her turn on him instead. This experience just added to her growing mistrust. [break][break] From here she has bounced from country to country eventually making her way to the United States, continuing to stay on the wrong side of the law. At current she is still drifting from state to state, but has made her way to New York, where it is a wonder just what her intentions are.
[attr="class","hopelovetitle"]POWER [attr="class","hopelovetop"][attr="class","hopelovesub"]
ABILITY[break][break] Super Strength : Raven's strength can damage near enough anything she touches. Even a simple thing of picking up a glass and closing a door means concentration in the form of using the lightest of touches. While she is able to pick up something like a large family car without any trouble. This is accomplished through a means of touch telekinesis which is permanently there, though Raven herself isn't aware of the connection. [break][break] Flight : Raven is able to fly also via telekinesis. She can fly pretty high since her lungs are able to withstand thinning oxygen at great heights, while her eyes are able to withstand strong winds. [break][break] LIMITS[break][break] The longer she uses her strength, as well as her flight the more exerted she becomes. Describe the limits of your character's ability, i.e. range, or max weight they can lift etc. [break][break] The most she is able to lift is around 5 tons, which is just shy over 10,000lbs. Which is about the equivalent of two SUV’s stacked together. [break][break]
WEAKNESSES[break][break] Raven is not indestructible. It's her bones and muscles that are enhanced with durability to cope with the strength, so she is prone to bruises, cuts and internal injuries. This means she can and will be knocked out. Even so great enough force such of that of another with super strength can break her bones. [break][break] Her strength is closely linked to her emotional state. The calmer she is the more control she has. Negative and stronger emotions cause it to become unstable, causing simple everyday actions to become destructible. The closing of a door becomes a slam. The picking up of a glass means it's shattered. She must become calm again, or rendered unconscious to regain control. [break][break]
