Post #1




         I am Raven, god of mayhem. You very well may know me as Chulyen, Hemaskas, Guguyni, Nankil'slas, Kwekwaxa'we, Kwekwaxawe, Txamsem, We-gyet, and Yhel. I am seen to all as a black raven, with long talons, a sharp beak, shiny black feathers, and beady, black, ever-watching eyes. I have no family, as I have always stood alone, independently.                                                                                                                        To many, I am seen as a helpful figure, even a hero. But, I also am known for greed, impatience, and gluttony, and for often getting into trouble and causing more issues for those around me and myself. My only true weakness is a lack of judgment and poor behavior that gets me into trouble much more often than it should.

    Your use of vocabulary is exceptional, and I have noticed your rebellious attitude. I can only suggest that you could verify how your emotions become your strengths. What are some of the adventures you have come across? I am very interested in where you use your strengths.

  2. Raven,
    Are you considered the trickster god in Native American mythology? Some of your weaknesses suggest that you are a trickster. I couldn't help but notice the sheer amount and difference of your names. How do you keep them straight? All my names are similar in sound and spelling.

  3. To Rhea, thank you very much. I guess you could say that my best accomplishments are creating, thus being a strength of mine.
    To Nut, I am indeed viewed as both a trickster and creator. I brought light to the world, and I am also considered to be the giver of water and the stars, but as I deceive those around me and cause trouble, I am seen as a trickster.

  4. Raven-
    Thank you for being honest with your descriptions. I despise anyone who would take away a right, such as knowledge of the truth, from me.

  5. If you are considered the trickster god of Native American mythology, then you and I have a whole lot in common.
