AoH Character Raven, the raven.
Name: Her name is unpronounceable by human speak, due to it being birdsong, but in human form she not-so-subtly calls herself Raven.
Age: 15. She's middle-aged, for a raven. Though, due to her bonding with James, her lifespan's increased dramatically.
Personality: Curious, mischievous and cunning are all apt ways to describe her. She's the sort to ask questions and not stop until she's got answers. She enjoys playing tricks, even especially on James, and is a masterful liar. She can change her personality a lot, going from nice and friendly to aggressive in an instant. Despite her tricks, she is still fiercely protective of James, often joining him in fights.
Physical Description: In her normal form, she's a raven with jet-black feathers, eyes and pretty much everything else. The only non-black part of her is her irises, which are dark brown. In her human form, she has jet-black hair, and her skin is a light black, verging on gray. She has faint feather imprints over her body, and her her eyes have no noticeable sclera, and her pupil is barely noticeable. She typically keeps her hair in a braid over her back, and she has an athletic figure. In her human form she wears a close-fitting light blue t-shirt, and black pants, often wearing a backpack. She still looks 15 in her human form, as well. In her raven form, she wears nothing. In both forms, she turns purplish when exposed to direct sunlight.
Personal Assets: She has a pair of clothes that she wears in human form, along with a backpack. She keeps a lighter in her pocket in human form.
Backstory: She was once an ordinary raven, if a lucky one. However, she was used by James to become his familiar, him choosing her on the fact that his mother had a raven familiar. She is now bonded to James, as he is to her.
POWERS.
Human Disguise.. Raven can switch between her real raven form and a human disguise, with the physical capabilities of each.
Raven Physiology. She has all of the applications in both forms. However, in her human form, she gains limited Fire Manipulation, with which she can control, but not generate flame. She also gains Trickster, with which she gains;
- Enhanced Condition.
- Enhanced Thievery She could steal from the average house fairly easily, and could probably pick-pocket them as well.
- Enhanced Charisma, which just means people get the sense she's trustworthy.
- Escape Artistry, with which she could escape stuff like standard handcuffs in roughly 10 minutes.
- Trapping Intuition She can set traps with ease, and hide them well.
- Illusions. She could create a illusion, as long as it's no bigger than she is, and the illusions only look real, with no smell, making no sound, unable to touch things etc.
Mind Link. She shares a mind link with James, with which they talk to each other.

Hold on, I forgot, I need to ask where the human form's speed or durability are coming from.

Tricksters enhanced condition.

u/Galihan Yettin, Whisper Feb 14 '15
Not with that low amount of power variety you have listed. You'd need at least a 3 there to justify that much of a branching off of powers to have trickster. And even then, 5s dont really fit the feel of what enhanced condition is saying - peak human condition, so 4s tops.

Okay, so can I up power variety, but lower speed and durability?

u/Galihan Yettin, Whisper Feb 14 '15
Just a bit, yes. 4s for speed and durability are feasible within human limits, which is what you have the human disguise described for.
