## Trivia

### Interesting facts

* Raven Reyes/Trivia may be descended from The Grounder Floyd Reyes.
* Originally, Raven was supposed to be Finn's 35-year-old mother and appear in the "Pilot," but they removed her from the episode because they didn’t think they need her and it was too long. Instead, the writers brought Raven back as Finn’s girlfriend.
* Even before Lindsey Morgan became series regular, Raven appeared in almost every episode. The only two episodes Morgan was not credited in were "Pilot" and "Earth Kills".
	+ Morgan stated that Raven was going to be killed off after five episodes, but then her role was extended. She also said that the producers let her decide if she wanted to continue on the show and she would became a series regular in Season Two, but if Lindsey had not wanted to, Raven would have died in the season one finale.
* Raven's mother was mentioned in Season One, but is unknown what happened to her until Raven revealed in "How We Get to Peace," that she was alcoholic and drank herself to death back on The Ark.
* Raven used to have a raven pendant (made by Finn for her birthday) and wore it constantly. The piece of jewelry, however, was given back to Finn upon their breakup.
	+ Raven is once again shown to be in possession of this pendant in "Wanheda (Part 1)."
* Raven's illegal spacewalk wasted three months of oxygen, perhaps setting in motion the events of the series.
* According to Abby, Raven was the youngest Zero-G mechanic on the Ark in 52 years.
* During "Earth Skills", Abby notes Raven to "have a thing for air ducts", which may imply her hobby of travelling inside tunnels.
* Raven is the second non-delinquent and the hundredth Arker to step foot on Earth, the first being Bellamy Blake.
* Raven is the first person to contact the Ark from Earth in 97 years by building a working radio.
	+ She also built working walkie-talkies.
	+ Raven was also presumably somehow responsible for building the video chat device first introduced in "Day Trip]]" though its unclear how she was able to turn an audio only radio, which had been repaired with parts from an RC car, into a video conference device.
* After her arrival on Earth, Raven appears to have managed to repair some of the Delinquents' dropship's systems as it had interior lighting again in "Contents Under Pressure."
* Raven is one of eight Sky People left outside Mount Weather after the battle and subsequent abduction at the Delinquents' Camp. The others are: Bellamy, Sterling, Zoe Monroe, Finn, John Murphy, Octavia, and an unnamed delinquent.
* Raven is the only disabled Sky Person in the series.
	+ Raven did not tell Abby who shot her.
* In "The 48", Raven is revealed to have Jasper Jordan's goggles.
	+ She returned them to him in "Blood Must Have Blood (Part 2)."
* Raven was the only person who was able to temporarily resist A.L.I.E. after taking the key to the City of Light.
* In Season Four, Raven has several strokes due to lingering effects from A.L.I.E. At one point, she decides to die. However, in "The Other Side", she decides to live and finds a solution to the issue by inducing a near-death experience.
	+ As mentioned in "The Blood of Sanctum," she continues to retain the intellect she gained from A.L.I.E. even after getting rid of the other lingering effects from her encounter with the AI.
	+ Raven is the only one is known to have gotten an upgrade from A.L.I.E because of her skills with computers. A.L.I.E upgraded her brain to which Raven can code which she could not originally do. After the EMP it damages Raven's brain. Raven says that when they EMPed the chip it was like her brain was a ram and it was suddenly cut off with part of Becca's code in her brain.
* So far, Season Four is the only season that Raven didn't kill or indirectly kill anyone.
	+ In Season Six she also didn't kill anyone. However, she destroyed the Flame while trying to delete *Sheidheda*. In the process, she may have destroyed the consciousnesses of the Commanders such as Lexa and Becca Franko, but it is currently unknown if they survived or not.
* At the crew panel at Unity Day 2018, it was revealed that Raven's brace was remade for the fourth season because Lindsey Morgan found the original brace (used in Season Two and Three) heavy and uncomfortable.
* Raven and Nathan Miller are the only two characters who were introduced in Season One after "Pilot" who are known to be still alive.
* Raven only once spoke to Kane in "What You Take With You" after six seasons.
* Raven had a hand in the termination of both A.L.I.E. and A.L.I.E. 2.0. In the former case, Raven helped lead Clarke to the kill switch to destroy the AI and was in fact the one who discovered the kill switch's existence in the first place by hacking into A.L.I.E. In the latter case, Raven activated *Sheidheda's* kill code to save Madi Griffin.
