#Raven (CBBC)

[not-mary-sue]

Traitors works because it hits the CBBC generations craving for overly dramatic gameshows

[femmehysteria]

I'm doing a series of "Best Character Named X" polls where all the characters have the same first name but are from completely different media, feel free to send in name/charcacter suggestions, I'm posting one poll a day, check my pinned post for active polls

Group D Round 1

[image ID: the first image is of Kronoculus, a giant creature with a hollow--looking body that fades into tattered black robes at his feet. he has a triangular, orange-gold and pink head, teeth-like protrusions where a mouth would be, and a large chain hanging from his mouth, attached to another triangular object. his arms and hands are black, long, and thin. his neck is hunched below his shoulders. the second image is of Raven, a Black woman with kinky brown hair fading into a light color, wearing black leather armor with a feathered cloak over her shoulders. she holds a black staff decorated with more feathers and gold bands. end ID]

Kronoculus

Kronoculus is a time wizard and the secondary antagonist of Costume Quest 2, a Halloween-themed video game about a group of kids who physically become their costumes to fight evil. Throughout the game, he serves under Dr. Orel White, a dentist attempting to rid the world of candy. Kronoculus commands an army of minions called Kronys, which are physical pieces of Kronoculus himself. (Kronoculus is special to me because, the last time I saw my half brother, we were playing Costume Quest 2 together. Hope he’s grown up to be an alright guy)

Raven

You know that thing where a cult series with a white male protagonist gets rebooted but with a black female protagonist instead? Well this is her. I love her. She’s the badass birdwoman shapeshifting warrior you’ve been dreaming of. She’s just so determined and compassionate and resourceful, even in the face of fighting a never-ending battle, against an enemy that won’t. Stay. Dead. She’s my favourite of all time and deserved like five more series and at least one spin off

I wanted to add this as propaganda, but it wouldn’t let me add a video in a reply.

I literally just remembered I made this, and I think it might make good propaganda so here it is!

Vote for Raven in THIS poll.

Thanks!

if anyone here remembers Raven, you could problem steal the contestants' names and get away with it

Every fantasy setting needs a guy whose name sounds like the author was trying to solve one of those word squares by randomly scrubbing their mouse over it fishing for hits, like "'Miralo'? 'Lontor'? 'Orimon'? Come on, one of these has to be a word... hey, wait a minute."

Did other countries have kids gameshows where if the children playing lost the game they were said to be eaten, imprisoned, killed or something similar or is that just a British thing?

[mistermoonstone]

If you spent your childhood watching CBBCs children adventure gameshow Raven, you're probably a bit too invested in The Traitors right now.

Lance Week 23, Day 6: Ancestor... Outfit Swap, 2?

I'm just saying, there had to be an origin for my love of mentorly figures in cool capes, alright! Only so many guys can wander around a highland-like area testing the moral fibre of children and smiting evil (though admittedly only one gives out the final reward of a family holiday to a single child and nebulously wipes out all the rest...) Anyway my original like, 3 different ideas for this prompt all died a death, so you're going to take this 10 degrees to the right version of me having highlander Lance headcanons, and you're gonna like it!

Group D Round 2

[image ID: the first image is of a profile for Silver, stylized as a popup on an old school desktop. she has pale skin, red hair, and red eyes. she's wearing a black bodysuit and silver armor with blue, glowing trim. the text of her profile is partially cut off, but what is visible reads: "Met: Barrens / The Barren's head engineer, a rather morose robot living alone near the mines. It's her duty to oversee operations and maintenance of the world's industrial heart, where metals and resources are pulled from the earth's clutches and rendered into usable goods. / ...at least, that's how things used to be. Since the evacuation, only a few active--" below this text is several small, full body renders of Silver. the second image is of Raven, a Black woman with kinky brown hair fading into a light color, wearing black leather armor with a feathered cloak over her shoulders. she holds a black staff decorated with more feathers and gold bands. end ID]

Silver

Silver is a robot who fucked up because she wasn't properly tamed (In oneshot, taming is the idea that a robot can be taught to act beyond its baseline programming by forming a relationship with someone). She went rogue because of contradictions in her code that she couldn't resolve. Her creator, who based Silver on herself, eventually fixed her, but the damage was done and Silver had to be relocated to a remote mining facility for political reasons.

Raven

You know that thing where a cult series with a white male protagonist gets rebooted but with a black female protagonist instead? Well this is her. I love her. She’s the badass birdwoman shapeshifting warrior you’ve been dreaming of. She’s just so determined and compassionate and resourceful, even in the face of fighting a never-ending battle, against an enemy that won’t. Stay. Dead.
