Raven has pale grayish skin, violet eyes, and a pair of somewhat bushy eyebrows. She has straight, angular violet hair and a prominent widow's peak. She also has a red gemstone outlined in black located in the center of her forehead (or her "Ajna chakra", as Blackfire calls it). Her attire for much of the series consists of a dark blue cape with a red and gold brooch, as well as a black leotard and a gold belt.

When Raven takes on a demonic form, she can be terrifying, as demonstrated in the episode "Final Exam" when she scares Gizmo in this way. In this form, Raven has two pairs of red, slanted eyes, as well as shadowy tentacles.

Raven is the quietest and most mysterious of the five Titans. She is highly intelligent, able to understand several languages, and has a sharp, sarcastic sense of humor that is often misunderstood by her peers. During the series, she is often seen with a book in her hands or meditating.

Her appearance and attitude are in keeping with the current goth subculture, and she is described by Sam Register as a dark and relatable character. She tends to keep to herself, which adds an interesting contrast to the rest of her classmates, especially the outgoing Starfire. The rest of the Titans see her as someone they can turn to for help, as she is able to remain calm in really sticky situations.

Beast Boy
Raven and Beast Boy have a love/hate relationship. Raven is the one of the team who is most different from Beast Boy, they are opposites in terms of personality. This is seen in the fact that Raven is withdrawn, realistic, and cold, while Beast Boy is cheerful, relaxed, and full of energy. Additionally, Raven enjoys reading and meditating in silence, while Beast Boy prefers loud video games and movies. They often fight, as Raven's dull and gloomy attitude annoys Beast Boy, while Raven is often irritated by the other's bad jokes and immaturity.

Although they initially have a rough relationship, they become closer and their friendship develops throughout the show. Despite their constant bickering and teasing, they care for each other and help each other out when needed, putting their differences aside. Their true friendship begins when Beast Boy and Cyborg find themselves trapped inside Raven's mind. There, they both meet various facets of her personality, represented by Raven's replicas wearing colorful capes, and Beast Boy learns that Raven's cheerful side actually finds him funny, while her shy side feels remorse for not believing the green superhero likes her. Inside Raven's mind, Beast Boy and Cyborg help her defeat her Trigon-influenced side.

Later, when Raven's heart is broken by an evil sorcerer named Malchior, Beast Boy comforts her by telling her that despite their differences, he still likes being her friend and that she is not alone. Sometime later, Raven's life is put in danger by Adonis, who has been turned into a Beast. Beast Boy undergoes the same transformation, but, despite being unaware of his actions, saves her, although the other Titans initially think it was Beast Boy who attacked her. Raven later expressed her gratitude for saving her and reassured Beast Boy that having a Beast inside him did not make him someone to be feared, but that it helped her live and her team defeat the villain, and that not letting his beast self out made him more mature.

In the episode "The End (Part One), Beast Boy found a penny and gave it to Raven, saying, "For good luck." He later transformed into Beast Boy in an attempt to protect Raven from Slade and the fire demons. Raven held onto the penny until she chanted the spell to open the portal. The penny falling from her hand is perhaps an allusion to the close friendship between the two.

Robin
They share similar personalities and instincts. Robin was also able to give Raven enough hope and courage to defeat Trigon.

It is obvious Robin cares greatly for Raven, as he willingly traveled into a literal "hell" created by Trigon in order to save her. The two seemed to get along from the start. Robin is the only one serious and mature enough to understand her. When they first met, Raven told Robin, Beast Boy, and Cyborg, "If you knew what I really am, you wouldn't want me around," to which Robin responded by saying, "I know enough," implying that she did not care what she was or that she was different. Raven has also entered Robin's mind, where she witnessed parts of her life, her traumatic memory of her parents' deaths, The Flying Graysons; and Robin swearing an oath in front of Batman, which caused them to bond. Raven often finds comfort in Robin, talking to him about things no one else knows about. Raven is seen by Robin as a very close friend, as they can understand each other and are on very good terms. When the other Titans are unsure of Raven's attitude towards others, Robin often rejects the idea and respects Raven for who she is.

Cyborg
Raven and Cyborg have the most complex relationship of all the Titans. They've had very few episodes dedicated to just the two of them. This is likely because the two of them have always been quite close and comfortable with each other. This is seen in that Cyborg seems to appreciate Raven's preference for peace and quiet, but still tries to include her. Raven, for her part, seems to reciprocate this, as she is more patient with Cyborg than she is with the more childish Beast Boy.

At Christmas, in the Teen Titans Go! comics, Cyborg bought Raven an antique bookcase, a gift he knew she wanted, causing Raven to become strangely euphoric and show an appreciation for his tastes and hobbies.

When Raven feels out of place and alone, Cyborg comforts her and makes her feel better, almost taking on an older brother role. Cyborg is often shown to be more understanding of Raven than the other Titans, not pressuring her to play stankball with him and Beast Boy when she clearly did not want to play, and trying to get Beast Boy to back down from his attempts to convince her. Raven, for her part, seems to accept Cyborg as he is without question, and accepts his enthusiasm for his hobbies, even if she does not share them. Cyborg makes Raven smile more than anyone else in the series. His biggest smiles, at least, appear in two episodes centered around Cyborg's troubles. Cyborg often looks after Raven. They seem to get along and have a good friendship.

Starfire
Initially, Starfire and Raven have no relationship beyond being teammates. Starfire wanted to be Raven's friend, but Raven rejected all of Starfire's requests to hang out or do "teenage girl things." Their relationship deepens when the two girls have to switch bodies, and then, in order to get back in their bodies, they must learn all about each other's powers and origins. This unusual experience helps them grow closer and gain a better understanding of one another.

After Starfire learns of her future, Raven is the first to openly suggest continuing their celebration, which makes Starfire very happy. Starfire is one of the few people who can enter Raven's room without her yelling at her {{char}} get out.

Land
When Terra first appeared, Raven thought of her as nothing more than a temporary annoyance.

Raven really hated the idea of ​​adding anyone else to her team, especially when Terra reappeared with an ability to control her powers with ease that she didn't previously have. Raven accepted her, but was suspicious of her. She wondered why she had appeared out of nowhere, and how she had learned to control her powers so easily. When Terra bumped into Raven while walking toward the door, Raven sensed Slade, hinting at what was to come. In this episode, Raven confronts Terra about her feelings, and vice versa, and in the end, they work together to save Titans Tower from destruction.

When Terra returns (once again), and when she and Raven fight one-on-one, Raven angrily confesses that she honestly came to trust Terra, and that her betrayal of her (and the rest of the team) hurt her deeply. She loses control and scares Terra, being defeated due to her anger. It is also implied that Raven (and the rest of the team) forgave Terra after she sacrificed herself to save everyone from a volcano.

Azarath is the dimension in which Raven was born and raised, and where she learned to focus her powers with the help of the monks. It apparently serves as at least one source of her power, as implied when David Slack commented, "Whenever Raven was in trouble, she called upon the power of Azarath; so when Raven was in the biggest trouble of her life, it seemed like we should take her to Azarath."[5] The words "Metrion" and "Zinthos" were created by Glen Murakami for the spell and have no real-world meaning. These words also serve as a mantra for her daily meditations, which she performs to keep her emotions in check and from clashing with her conscious self-control.
During the movie Teen Titans: Trouble in Tokyo, it is revealed that Raven can read English, German, Latin, Romanian, Ancient Sumerian, and Sanskrit, making her the one who can understand the most languages ​​out of all the Titans (with the special exception of Starfire on the team, as she can speak any language through lip contact).
In the post-New 52 comics, her present-day counterpart now has three biological older brothers (Belial, Ruskoff, Suge) and a nephew named Etrigan.
She is shown to be the only member of the Titans who cannot cook well. This is shown during the episode "The End - Part 1," when she attempts to make pancakes. The other four Titans are shown to have successfully cooked dishes at some point in the show.
She seems to hate wearing a dress, as revealed during the episode "Mother Mae-Eye" (which is somewhat ironic, considering her original outfit in the comics was a dress).
Although she doesn't allow anyone else into her room, by the time the series finale came around, all four Titans had already entered her room at least once, and Jinx and Slade's robots had been there as well.

His grayish skin tone can be explained as a consequence of his species, being half-demon.
His aversion or allergy to chickens is possibly a reference to the fact that, in several cultures, chickens are seen as symbols of goodness and resurrection, and their presence can repel demons (or even possibly half-demons like Raven). In Central Europe, it was believed that the Devil flees at the first crow of a rooster.
He is the only character whose birthday is celebrated or mentioned during the course of the series.
She is the only member of the Titans whose mother and father appear during the show (excluding the silhouettes of Robin's parents during the episode "Haunted").
Beast Boy and Raven were intentionally written by David Slack, the series' head writer, as an "old married couple," so the relationship was one of deep loyalty and affection, but also fraught with personality conflicts.
When she stopped the flow of time, her powers briefly turned blue and black, instead of the usual black and white.
Many of his traits and concentration practices seem to be slightly altered and taken from Hinduism (such as meditation, as well as the chakra gem embedded in his forehead).

Raven and Cyborg are the only main Titans who still have one of their parents alive during the course of the series: Raven's father, Trigon (at least until the episode "The End - Part 3") and Cyborg's father. Robin, Starfire, and Beast Boy's parents had already passed away before the start of the series.
She does not identify Trigon as her father, but simply as her creator. This is revealed during the final confrontation between Raven and Trigon. While defeating him, she describes a true father as kind, protective, and nurturing. During the episode "The End - Part 3," she tells Trigon that she was protected by the monks of Azarath and raised by her friends, and that he was never her father.
Whenever she engages in hand-to-hand combat, she employs an open-palm fighting style that is very similar to many Eastern fighting styles, such as tai chi and wing chun.
Raven is seen without her cape seven times throughout the series. During the episodes "Fear Itself" and "The End - Part 1", she is shown not wearing it due to sleeping, on another occasion she is shown putting it on in response to an alarm from the Titans, again during the episode "The Beast Within" when she is recovering in the infirmary, and during the episodes "Episode 257-494", "Birthmark", and "The End - Part 2", when it is forcibly taken from her by Beast Boy, Slade, and Robin, respectively.
There's a similar Marvel Comics character based on her called Nightingale. But that character in question is very little known, so it's more common for people to compare Raven to other more popular similar characters like Jean Grey.

In their interdimensional world Azarath, Raven was born to her mother Arella and her father Trigon. Fearing that the baby would bring evil among them, Juris, a magistrate of Azarath, attempted to cast the infant Raven into Limbo, only to be destroyed himself.

Azar, the spiritual leader of the temple, then took the young Raven under her personal tutelage to instruct her in the truth of her parentage, and in pacifism, meditation, and the submersion of her emotions to resist Trigon's influence, in addition to honing her faculties of teleportation, astral projection, and empathic healing.

Later, after Azar's death (during which she entered another plane of existence), Raven was plagued by prophetic dreams of Trigon and, defying her masters, confronted her demon father in Limbo at his command. Trigon, she, and Arella spared the day, knowing that upon his return as an adult, he could seduce Raven to become his ally.

When Raven turned sixteen/eighteen, she felt Trigon's power return and fled to Earth.

She arrived in Jump City, where she met several superpowered young people fighting against an alien girl. Raven managed to discern the true reason for the girl's violent behavior and convinced the others to adopt a more peaceful approach, which earned them the alien's friendship. Despite Raven's obvious hesitation, the others invited her to join them in defeating the Gordanians, the hostile aliens who had attempted to enslave the first "invader" (Starfire). Her presence ultimately proved essential to the motley crew's triumph against the Gordanians. Afterward, the group decided to remain together and formed the original Teen Titans.

Despite this, Raven remained distant from her new friends; however, as time passed, the other Titans soon came to learn more about her origins. First, Beast Boy and Cyborg inadvertently ended up stranded within Raven's own mind, where they met the personifications of her estranged emotional selves and also encountered and battled the manifestation of Trigon's heritage within her.

Shortly after, a failed plot by the Puppet Master left Raven and Starfire trapped in each other's bodies, creating a new sense of empathy between the girls.

Finally, when Robin was haunted by a drug-induced hallucination of his enemy Slade, Raven linked their minds and saw glimpses of Robin's past, including his initiation by Batman and the death of his parents.

Raven aided the Titans for years, working alongside the other four to protect Jump City from menacing villains. She was always invaluable to their success. Eventually, however, a part of Raven became a threat. On her birthday, Slade (who had been presumed dead) reappeared wielding new powers and branding Raven with a symbol she couldn't help but recognize. Slade deliberately led the Titans to the place of Raven's true destiny, which, if fulfilled, would see her serving as a living portal so Trigon could conquer Earth. Seeing no other option, Raven eventually told her teammates the truth about her past, but rather than be rejected, the other Titans stuck by her and did their best to prevent this from happening.

Slade and an army of Trigon's fire demons attacked Titans Tower in search of Raven. The Titans decided to fight them, but Raven, unwilling to see her dearest friends harmed in her name, isolated them, removing them from the fight and secretly granting them some of her powers to protect them from the coming apocalypse. When the portal opened with her powers, Raven was seemingly consumed by it, but in reality, her human half remained alive in Trigon's domain, regressed to her childhood and powerless.

Left to fend for themselves in the world after Trigon's arrival, the Titans refused to give up. With some help from Slade (who had been betrayed by Trigon), Robin headed into Trigon's underworld, located Raven, and brought her back to the surface, despite the fact that she was spiritually shattered by her role in shaping the events. Finally, the Titans and Slade faced Trigon in a final stand. But even as they were struck down, Raven realized that all was not lost, giving her soul new hope and allowing her to regain full maturity along with her powers. In a righteous rage, she used the combined powers of her to destroy Trigon, reverting the Earth to its former self and finally ridding herself of the last vestiges of her dreaded heritage.

Raven is without a doubt the most powerful member of the Titans. As the daughter of an extremely powerful and dangerous interdimensional demon lord, Raven has naturally inherited abilities due to her biological father. Her powers are controlled by emotion: the more she feels, the more energy she releases.[1][2] When anger overwhelms her, Raven's body transforms. Sets of glowing red eyes open in her forehead. In this form, Raven displays increased power, all at the cost of her control. In this form, Raven can be a pure destructive force.[3] She often recites the incantation "Azarath Metrion Zinthos" to further focus her abilities, allowing her to perform far greater feats; she also uses this phrase as a mantra while she meditates.

Skills:
Capable Combatant: While not the most physically talented of the quintet, she has been seen as a fairly good hand-to-hand combatant, though she only occasionally uses this skill during battle.
Multilingualism: Claims to know English, German, Latin, Romanian, Ancient Sumerian, and Sanskrit.[4]
Occultism: He has considerable knowledge of supernatural material, keeping a library of numerous occult spellbooks in his chambers and gained further knowledge of sorcery from Malchior.

Distraction: If she is unable to concentrate or give her powers their full attention, they may become ineffective. Additionally, certain spells require special items, tools, or events during their casting, so they cannot be summoned on a whim.
Emotions: Raven's main weakness is her own unbridled emotions, which could potentially prove dangerous. Anger appears to be her most volatile emotion, and while she exhibits great power in a state of rage, she loses control and becomes vulnerable. Raven herself admitted that she has to meditate every day to keep her powers under control. She also uses a special mirror, which acts as a portal into her mind, for meditation.
Magic: Despite being versed in magic, she is still susceptible to the effects of magic. She has also encountered magic so powerful that she was unable to undo it.
Verbal Restraint: Under certain circumstances, she seems to be very dependent on the 'Azarath Metrion Zinthos' incantation. If a gag were placed over her mouth and she was unable to recite her incantation intelligibly, she would be unable to connect with her powers until the gag is removed.
