[/strong];; Despite Raven’s competence in close combat without his Weapon Arm, he is very reliant in the usage of his arm as a weapon in general. Much like a modern-day firearm, it needs maintenance and cleaning. While very robust and reliable, his disabled Weapon Arm causes a devastating effect on him in the midst of battle.
"This steady burst of snow is burning my hands.
I'm frozen to the bones, I am.
A million mile from home, I'm walking away.
I can't remind your eyes, your face."

General Personality ►: Despite the intimidating and serious demeanor that Raven gives off about to other people, he is actually a very nice person; however, he is a man of very few words and will hardly ever express what he thinks or feels to people around him unless he feels that he can trust them. Due to what had happened in the past, Raven has difficulties trusting people, and tries to keep the social interactions minimal unless it is absolutely necessary. That does not mean he will simply ignore someone if they are in need of help, and because of his guilty conscious of what he had done in the past, he has tendencies to jumping into dangers that involve other people to help them recklessly without a second thought. Despite the recklessness, Raven is also a highly-skilled fighter as he can alternate styles between both ranged and close-combat, and for that reason he carries himself with a certain degree of confidence as a former Black Crow mercenary leader.
Raven also has tendencies of random outbursts of anger. This mainly has to do with the side-effect of his Nasod enhancement had done to his brain as well as his arm’s influence. While he is in mainly control of his own emotions thanks to the meditation that he does every day, Raven is especially prone to blindly losing himself in combat until everything around him is nothing more than smothering ruins, outside of it, he often falls into survivor’s guilt if anyone or anything reminds him of his past. He tries his best to hide it behind his stoic exterior, and often fails. Even so, Raven does not let such things in his heatd for too long and gets back right up thanks to his strong-will and focus as to what he must do to redeem himself for what he had done.

Weaknesses ►:
Still a human;; Despite the enhancements made by the Nasods on his body, Raven can still normally succumb to wounds and abnormal effects like every normal human being.
Lightning-based Spells;; While Raven can withstand all kinds of attacks, Lightning attack in particular is something that he often tries to avoid. His arm, being made out of complex system, can short out and be easily disabled by something like an electromagnetic pulse.
Water;; In combat, terrain means everything. Fighting ANYWHERE near the water is something that Raven would never do considering his attacks are actually fire and heat-based. His opponents, if set fire by the attack can easily go into water and cool-themselves off. If his attacks are hit by the water, the damage done by it is significantly reduced.
Overheat!;; This is the greatest strength and asset that Raven possesses as a Veteran Commander, but it is also one of his greatest weaknesses. While ‘Overheating’ his arm increases the damage of his abilities either by essentially ‘heating up’ his attacks from temporarily removing the limiter, or by constant usage. The flames ventilated from his Weapon Arm also tend to hurt him in the process. Fortunately, overheating his attacks is completely optional, but it must be used sparingly since constant usage of this feature does have detrimental effect on both Raven and his arm. [Can be used 8 times per thread and Overheat’s negative effect lasts up to 2 posts]
Lack of Magical Knowledge;; Raven is not exactly big on magic. While he is quite aware of that they do exist, he chooses not to use them since he is well-versed in usage of his Nasod Weapon Arm and his swordsmanship.[/ul]
Abilities ►:
Weapon Arm;; Raven’s main weapon and main source of his abilities. The Weapon Arm can fire out 4 explosive Anti-Nasod rounds per turn and even spew flame out at his enemies; however, prolonged and constant usage causes his arm to overheat, also hurting him in the process.
Overheat Barrage;; Raven fires a bullet and leaps towards his enemy and punches them with his immense Weapon Arm, causing them to stagger. He then quickly assumes a stable firing position for and releases six continuous barrage of explosions right in at the point blank range with the final explosion sending them flying. Using this attack causes his arm to overheat.
Revolver Cannon;; Taking a stable firing position on a ground, Raven fires out 4 large armor-piercing slugs coated in flames at his opponents, which travels up to 40 feet. The usage of ‘Overheat’ system in his arm allows him to fire out two additional slugs while increasing the ability’s damage.
Harpoon Spear;; While in mid-air, Raven fires off an immense metal spike at a diagonal angle which travels across the ground at a linear path up to 30 feet. Enemies caught in the attack are constantly pushed back by the brutal force digging into the ground and peppered shrapnels. By the end of its travel, the spike explodes at 20 feet radius, causing moderate flame-based damage. Overheating this attack makes the spike larger, and increases the distance traveled up to 40 feet and explosion up to 30 feet radius.
Hellfire Gatling;; This is one of the more devastating abilities that Raven possesses in his wide arsenal. Planting his feet down on the ground and using his sword as a tri-pod for his weapon-arm, he takes a firing a stance and aims his arm at a general direction of his enemies. As the ability’s name implies, his arm rapidly spews out 40 fireballs size of a football up to 50 feet in front of him with 30 feet wide cone-shaped spread. Overheating his arm, while it can be done is more dangerous to do than other abilities due to how rapidly the rounds are fired and the sheer volume makes it so that it counts as having him using TWO Overheat at once and the negative effect from it stacks up to two times, making it a total of 4 posts that Raven has to suffer from burning effects. This attack inflicts devastating fire-based damage, and in addition to the overheat increases its damage and up to 20 additional fireballs are fired.
Ignition Crow;; Upon coating his sword in flames, Raven slices his weapon across the ground and sends a wave of flames using the shape of a crow to consume his enemies. The ‘crow’ leaves behind a trail of flames which is traveled from Raven. The attack spreads up to 30 feet in front of him with a wide 40 feet cone-shaped spread in front of him. While the flame itself does not cause significant amount of damage other than minor burns, the flames left behind it are actually devastating as it can light multitude of enemies on fire and continuously burn them, which lasts up to 4 posts while 'Overheated' version lasts up to 5.

Weapons ►:
Veteran Commander’s Sword;; A large sword given to a Veteran Commander of Black Crow mercenaries which resembles the head of a crow. The weapon stands up to five feet, and is easily swung by Raven with just one arm.
