-Raven saying to protect Mimi.
Raven is a character from The Grim Tales From Down Below. She appears in the memory of Mimi in Chapter 7: What About Mimi. She originates from the DC Universe cartoon, Teen Titans.
Grim Tales What About Mimi?
She made a few cameo appearances in the backgrounds during the story Grim Jr. told about his parents.
She later appeared in the memory of Mimi when she saved Jeff the Spider and Mimi and began fighting The Lava Monster along with Irwin and Hoss Delgado. When she was speaking an incantation HIM suddenly appeared and slashed her in her back. Irwin got furious and attacked HIM who snapped his neck to the horror of Raven. When Mimi was brought up to the sky Raven striked down a meteor on the Lava Monster's head who commented about her mother instinct. Raven told Mimi wasn't her daughter but that her mom was coming. HIM overed her to become a nanny of Mimi but she refused, The Lava Monster was about to hit her when Blossom killed the monster and saved Mimi. Raven went to Jeff and gave him a golden medallion and asked to give it to Mimi. She then along with Hoss grabbed HIM and transported to far away where Hoss' nuclear grenade exploded killing Raven and Hoss. HIM, though, had survived the blast.
Appearance
Raven's appearance is seen as dark and mysterious throughout the series. Her superhero outfit is mostly made up of her favorite color, dark blue/indigo. She usually wears a blue cloak (and matching blue ruffled ankle-boots with black/gray soles), with a leotard-like long-sleeved shirt that is blue/black with cuffs at her wrists of the same blue of her cloak. On her cloak, she has a circular black/red jewel set in a gold plate that attaches the whole thing together; it covers her T-communicator and it's fixed to beep/glow when there is trouble as seen in some episodes. Around her waist she has a red and gold belt with the same jewels around it and no pants. Her hair and eyes are violet, and as seen in the episode Birthmark, Raven cuts off the extra hair that she had grown. In Switched, Raven despises Raven wearing Robin's costume Added by Mystogan zeref Starfire's long hair, which may conclude she likes to keep it short. On her forehead, she has a red and black gemstone on her ajna chakra, that she was born with. She is seen to be very pale (gray skin), which makes her appearance somewhat demonic. She tried to wear Robin's uniform as seen in The Quest. When Mother Mae-Eye infiltrates the Tower and puts the Titans under her control, she turns Raven's blue cloak into a yellow Shirley Temple dress with matching bows in her hair, but her boots remain blue in color. Mother Mae-Eye then says, "Just because you're evil on the inside doesn't mean you can't look pretty on the outside." This outfit puts her a disadvantage fighting Jinx, contributing to the team's defeat by the H.I.V.E. Five.
However, despite her demonic appearence, she is shown to be quite attractive, as Adonis took a liking to her, and in the Teen Titans Go! issue The Great Race, Kid Flash considers her pretty and stops in the middle of the race to flirt with her.
Powers and Abilities
In Grim Tales, Raven takes much inspiration from the Teen Titans animated series on Cartoon Network; her powers and appearance are similar to that version of her.
When fighting Him; Raven uses her shadow-based telekinesis to project energy bolts, create solid energy barriers, teleport herself and others away, and typically to move objects or people away from danger. She can levitate via her own power as well. Whenever she is about to use a massive amount of power, she recites the chant "Azaroth, Metrion, Zinthos.". In a brave act, Raven used her powers to teleport herself, Hoss Delgado, and Him kilometers away so that they could destroy Him with a nuclear weapon, though ironically Him is the only one to survive this.
Origin
Raven is a fictional superheroine who appears in comic books published by DC Comics. The character first appeared in a special insert in DC Comics Presents #26, and was created by writer Marv Wolfman and artist George Pérez. Raven is an empath who can teleport and control her "soul-self," which can fight physically, as well as act as Raven's eyes and ears away from her body.
