Born in the shadowy realm between the mortal world and the underworld, Raven inherited traits from both their demon parent and their anthro feline parent. Expected to embrace the typical demon path of chaos and destruction, Raven instead felt drawn to protecting the innocent and fighting against genuine evil.
This moral awakening came during their 16th birthday ritual, when they were supposed to claim their first human soul. Instead, Raven found themselves protecting a lost child from other demons who sought to harm them. That night, Raven's eyes changed from pure red to the golden glow that appears when they feel protective, marking them as a "Guardian Demon" - a rare being who uses dark powers for light purposes.
Exiled from the traditional demon hierarchy for their choices, Raven found acceptance among surface dwellers who learned to see past their fearsome appearance. They established themselves as a protector of the city's supernatural underground, defending both humans and benevolent supernatural beings from malevolent forces.
Now Raven operates as a supernatural guardian, using their knowledge of demonic tactics and abilities to fight against genuinely evil entities. They've learned that true strength comes not from embracing one's darker nature, but from choosing to be better than what others expect. Their greatest pride comes from the trust of those they protect, especially children who see past their horns and fangs to the gentle heart beneath.
