Description

Being a Fae creature, yes, she IS vulnerable to Cold Iron. Contact with the stuff means she will get terribly burned by it.

Full Turnaround Video: [link]

Deceptively Deceptive:
To simply lie well does not make a good deciever. Ravin knows a lot about things she, by any accounts, shouldn't even know.
*As a Fae of Deceit, Ravin is to an extent a diviner. She can hear a person's desires and can give them the answers they seek to get it. There is a cost as with all things Fae, and that is that she won't remember the subject after talking about it. Added onto that, she will riddle the answer with enough lies to cause rather big problems.

Talking the Talk:
Ravin talks like she knows things beyond the scope of one's human understandings. She speaks with a large number of metaphors that may not seem to initially fit the situation until later. On occasion she'll talk in modified nursery rhymes. When she doesn't have anything terribly important to say, she will switch back to a more childish mindset of expressing her feelings quite openly on whatever may be around or pointing out the obvious to fill the silence which is her much more common way of communicating to a person they are boring her.

Whats with the kid?
Ravin's relationship with July is one of necessity. She does find a little robot girl to be absurdly amusing and somewhat hilarious to see a child try to act so mature. But she does realize that she needs a protector in this new world and July seemed to fit the bill since she wanted to get out of here. Robots aren't people, so how do robots act when put through her games? Can they even be effected? So many questions, so much curiosity!

F.A.Q:
(Ask away and they shall be answered by the lovely Sachi Shimizu)
Are those shadows on her eyes or is that a mask?
Sachi: They're shadows and glowing eyes. Once she takes that stupid hat off, she can actually look a little 'too' normal and makes me hate her just a little bit less.
What is the Hedge?
Sachi: If hell were green and made of sword-sized thorns on vines that block out the sky, that's what the Hedge is. It is the land of the Faeries that exists beside our world. The land is alive and quite malevolent. Your fears are turned against you in the most monstrous of ways and the paths take on subtle shifts to make escaping it that much harder.
Why does she hate Mages so much?
Sachi: Cuz they're cheaters who break reality. Duh. Most Fae hate mages because they do not abide by the laws of our world. In a sense, they're contract breakers. Ravin tends to take it upon herself to make a Mage's life a living nightmare. I just hate'em because they think they're so cool with their finger-wiggling bullshit.

If you're one of those people who is terribly bothered by this (because it's happened before) allow me to explain a few things:

The Twilight Princess symbol is based heavily itself off of the Winged Sun, found throughout many cultures as a symbol of divinity and power. Within our own culture today, we see it in things like the Mini-Cooper symbol, the United States Air Force, and even the Freemason icons. While they may not have 'exact shapes' the Twilight Princess but they are there. The Triforce itself is the Hojo family crest from the Kamakura Period and used metaphorically to represent dragon scales.

So no, it isn't technically the Zelda symbol. When I made that symbol, it was the symbol of the Winged Sun, and there are variants of it, I just find myself liking this particular version to represent Divinity, her Nobility, and most importantly, the Light, which if you know Plato's Cave Theory, it is a philosophical statement on man's perception of 'truth' which ties in with her being the Fae of Deceit.

Not saying you're accusing me of theft or stealing a logo design here, but there is a bigger reason to why I used it than just because I was too lazy or unoriginal to make my own design.

No I wasn't calling you lazy or unoriginal, I was just saying it reminded me of it But that is a very interesting piece of information there, makes sense with the hat now.

Similar design, though it's missing a Triforce and talons.

I have meant to comment on this for a long time, because I really just love the layout of it. Probably one of the nicest ref sheets I've seen.

Oh! Thank you very much space! I followed 's lead on this to keep our refs kind of unified and I'm glad it turned out so well! Definitely one of my better Refs instead of the lazy 'here's picture and text in bottom' format x)

First she IS crazy, and now she can plant and/or exacerbate insanity in everyone else. Holy shit, Ravin's getting terrifying. QAQ (I love iiiiiiiiit~)

But HEY! Good luck with The Switch and I like the style you did for the little Ravin doodles on the sides. Nice and crisp-looking. C8

DEAR GOD the more I read about her, the more I realize that she is just one BATSHIT INSANE CHARACTER. She really is a fun one. In so many ways. ;;

Also did I mention she is crazy and honestly I don't even need to look into her eyes without feeling some kind of slow onset of crippling insanity... There's just something very very creepy about her that sets me off like that. LMAO.

I do really love her, though. ;A;

She so cray cray

I think the more I work on her the more I realize that I've created her @A@ What's that say about me?!

Also, it'll be so hard to stop wanting to call you Armi D: I'll have to work Acti into my mental log as your new name!

As a character creator, I have to say I am quite taken with this one!

She's unique - bursting with personality! I also love the file-card format... I may need to do something similar with my own!

Marvelous! Thank you for sharing her!

Thank you very much! She's always been a rather interesting character to work with and it's fun to get her all finished up for a reference for the
