Raven (Teen Titans)

Raven is one of the deuteragonists of the Teen Titans franchise (along with Starfire). She is a human-demon hybrid, originating from the parallel dimension of Azarath, and is one of five founding members of the Teen Titans.
== History ==
Raven was the daughter of Arella and the inter-dimensional demon Trigon. She was born in the mystical realm of Azarath, a parallel world from Earth and raised by her mother and the Monks of Azarath. Despite knowing her destiny to one day act as a portal for her father's conquest, Raven was still loved by the  people of Azarath, who she considered part of her true family. Eventually, she left her Homeworld and returned to Earth. Knowing she was destined to one day destroy the world, Raven sought to use her powers for good and started out in Jump City, California.  When she arrived in the city, an alien princess began to unleash her own powers, causing trouble and destruction downtown. Raven appeared on the scene, where she found a trio of boys trying to handle the situation. This included the Boy Wonder, Robin/Dick Grayson (recently the former sidekick of Batman), Beast Boy (a metahuman who was a former member of Doom Patrol and Cyborg (the former athlete Victor Stone).
During the small battle with Starfire, Robin freed the girl of her manacles but the alien princess preceded to kiss him to acquire knowledge of the English language. She flew off and warned them to stay away from her before running away to another part of town. Despite the small group of superheroes, Raven was reluctant to to team up with Robin, Cyborg and Beast Boy to find the alien girl because she feared they wouldn't like her if she told them what she was. However, Robin convinced her to join them help Starfire, after noting that it wouldn't matter who or what she was.
During the mission, the team learned that the Gordanians were the true threat. Raven and the rest of the superheroes grouped to protect Starfire and Jump City from the villains. In the aftermath of the battle, Raven joined the group on the island where Avengers Tower would be built. As Beast Boy joked, Raven admitted he was kind of funny. However, this prompts him to tell Raven he will tell her all the jokes he knows, much to her horror and starting one of the running gags in the series. Raven was given a communicator by Robin in case they needed each other again. This eventually led to Raven and her new friends to forming the Teen Titans, a group of young superheroes to protect Jump City from other threats, with the likes of Slade Wilson, Dr. Light, HIVE, and Trigon
