Name:
Raven.
True Name:
Louis Ashton.
Age:
Twenty six at the time of his death, currently nearing one-hundred years.

Physical Description:
Raven is slightly below average height, standing at around 5'6" with a slender frame from lack of proper nutrition while he was alive. He has short black hair which is usually rather messy which stands out from his fair complexion. Raven's eyes are a bright green in color, though he tends to keep them closed a lot. His arms bear the slash marks that led to his death.
Most often Raven can be found wearing a simple brown hat which covers some of his hair. The color of this matches the three-quarter length pants and the poncho he drapes over his shoulders. Under the poncho he wears a white long-sleeved button-up shirt and a dark grey blazer on top of that. There is often a blue striped tie hanging loosely around his neck and occasionally he will wear a pair of black-framed glasses, despite not really needing to. The part of his legs not covered by his pants are done so by the long white socks he wears while he dons a pair of simple black shoes on his feet. It's not exactly a practical outfit, but it's something he enjoys wearing.
Raven's mask is a dark grey in color and looks like feathers surrounding and spreading out from his eyes.

Personality:
Raven has a somewhat childish persona, he's rarely without a smile and he takes nearly everything with a positive attitude. He's curious about the world around him and usually ends up asking a load of questions about what something is and how things work. He's a little naive, often taking things at face value and not looking into the heart of the matter, something which his care-free attitude about un-life seems to work well with. Sometimes he will do things simply because he can, or he wants to try it out. He may see something and decide to have a look. This sort of thing happens fairly frequently and often means that someone has to keep an eye on him so he doesn't wander off and get lost, something else which happens regularly.
Raven's smiles can be a little disturbing, especially if he is in the middle of something serious or killing someone, whether on orders or because he felt like it. He still plays the innocent card even during these darker moments, sometimes humming a random little tune under his breath while doing so, or laughing happily.
Sadness or any negative emotions are rare for Raven, perhaps because they are what he frequently felt during his life. But when he does get these moments, they tend to affect him rather strongly, perhaps because he is otherwise so upbeat most of the time.

Cause of Death:
Suicide, Raven sliced open his arms and bled out before anyone noticed.
Past:
Raven doesn't remember a lot of his past. He knows that he had an elder brother and sister and a mother and father, but he doesn't remember their names or what they looked like. He barely remembers his own name. There are patches of memories here and there, but most of them are unconnected and are from the years closer to his death.
His earliest memory is of his family crying as a group of people take him away.
Raven wasn't a nice child. He would make up stories to scare others on purpose and would sometimes see things that weren't really there. It escalated and after killing several animals by the age of ten, his parents called the doctors who took him away.
The remaining sixteen years of his life were spent in an asylum, where he was frequently subjected to various things in order to "fix him". None of them really worked, causing more hallucinations rather than stopping them and in the end he took his own life, not wanting to deal with existing anymore. Of course, that didn't exactly go as he planned...
Ability:
Given the hallucinations he frequently endured while alive, it seems fitting that in death he can now create them. Raven's ability is the creation of illusions, usually he tries to create monsters with this ability to scare people, like in the stories he told when he was younger, though he is capable of other types of illusions as well.
Weapon:
Orion: a bow and set of arrows. It's a weapon he rather enjoys using as he thinks it's a fun little game to hit his targets.
