A principal character from the City of Splendors, a Dungeons & Dragons Forgotten Realms campaign set in Waterdeep. �The villa echoed with the ring of steel on steel as their duel escalated in intensity, but remained just as playful. Daeron had to admit that she was as skilled as she was beautiful, as he pressed an advantage, pushed her back into a column and binding both their rapiers between them. Catching her by surprise, pressed his lips to hers, and, for an instant, felt her kiss back. �You orc!� Raven swore and shoved him back. Swinging wildly, she spun herself in an off balance pirouette. �Watch you temper!� Daeron mocked, swatting her butt with the flat of his rapier as it spun pass. Realizing that he was goading her into making worst mistakes, Raven smiled coyly and resumed the duel with control. She had thought he was nothing more then a flop, but his skill had proved her wrong. Lunging forward, her foot slipped on polished marble, and she ended up over-extended. Seizing the opportunity, he lunged himself, slipping his blade into the bodice of her vest. Reacting on reflex, she pulled up, and his blade sliced through her bodice ties. �What!?!� she cried in surprise as, with out the ties to restrain it, her vest popped open under the strain of her ample breasts. Daeron circled out of reach, as she struggled to hold the damaged garment closed with her free hand, to little avail. Then, eyeing him with a combination of respect for his skill and cleverness, and seething fury for her embarrassment, she moved forward to resume the duel, letting her vest hang open with no further effort to hide the charms revealed. �Like what you see?� she cooed, with a capricious grin, her rapier at the ready and determined to pay him back a dozen times over�� An enigma, even to herself, Raven woke one morning in her teens in Jester's Court with no memory of how she had gotten there... or who she was! Her only clue to her identity; a tattoo of a winged figure on her back, which, along with her dark eyes and hair, gave her her name. A skilled thief and cunning rogue, she survives by her wits and daring, and is well aware that her exotic beauty and charm can be deadlier then any blade. Always searching for clues to her past, Raven is frequently surprised by the odd bits of knowledge that spring to her mind, but so far, these disjointed revelations have failed to unlock her lost memories or identify, which even powerful spells have been unable to recover.
