Raina Rivera

"Cooking is like painting or writing a song. Just as there are only so many notes or colors, there are only so many flavors - it's how you combine them that sets you apart." —Wolfgang Puck
== Childhood ==
Very shortly after Raina's birth, her parents gave up custody of her and her two sisters. It took a year or so for them to be adopted by a nice lady from London — Helene Johansen, who made sure the girls' Puerto Rican culture was integrated into their household. This made Raina's adoptive brother, Hans, feel left out.
== Schooling ==
Raina was sorted into Slytherin and began a rivalry with Luca Rivera. The two butted heads often, eventually falling for each other their sixth year. They were on-again, off-again at first, but eventually worked things out before they graduated.
== Adulthood ==
Using a loan from Helene, Raina opened her own restaurant, Mama's Kitchen. She and Luca welcomed two children into the world after marrying — Luciano and Nerissa. Unfortunately, Luca passed shortly after Nerissa's birth, leaving Raina a single mother. He was murdered by his Pureblood family for "settling for a half-breed." It took Raina years before she was able to go out with another again, eventually welcoming Clove Rivera, as she kept Luca's surname.
== Death ==
TBA.
== Trivia ==
