Welcome to Gaia! ::

Name: Raven Cordal

Age: 18

Oriantation: She's bi

Nationality: Canadian and she's 1/4 Ojibwa and Cree, 1/4 french Canadian and 1/2 greek. Since her mother and grandmother didn't lose status, she has the tax card.

Job: Forestry ranger

Appearence: Raven's not one of those types to stick with an outfit but she likes wearing a Rainbow shirt that's a bit small for her and either jeans or black pants. She loves wearing a trench coat and has round polarized clip ons. She has brown eyes and bronish red hair cut like Uma Thurman's cut from pulp fiction, it was formerly a light brown. She has short nails because of a nail bitting habit. She's about four inches shorter then the average sized person and weighs 100 pounds mostly from muscle. She also has a number of luck charms and her earings are studs, both from the same package but one lost the crystal in it.

Intrests: Supernatural, Wicca, Karate, Kabuto, Animals, people, internet ad books.

Dislikes/ fears: Fear of Drowning, Fear of hight and Fear of getting attacked in the dark. Dislikes sleeping in late, no mint, when people yell at her and people who are depressed.

Likes: Interesting people, mint (In fact, plants in general), Internet, Her interests, parties (If they are made by someone else), shocking people for no reason (In grade 12, she ate pieces of a bran cracker ginger bread house to freak out her classmates), swimming (Not too deep), climbing (not too high) and waking up early.

Personality: Raven is a kind and compassionate person. She can be hurt by negative and made happy by positive ones. But she's also very stubborn and has a nasty temper. She also has tendancies to talk to alive things that can't talk or things like alive things (like her huge collection of benies and her chosen stuffed familiars.) She hates doing something wrong or forgetting something, although the latter happens too often. She's very quiet unless extremely bored or curious, then she's a chatter box and is a chatter box with friends or people she knows. She also has a number of songs she remembers by heart. She likes animals with a passion though. She still has imaginary friends but is good at hiding her odd and crazy actions sometimes. Also, if she's nervous or her hands need something to do, she braids her hair, tighter the braids, the more nervous she is. She's mostly the way she is because of bullying, specially some particulairly nasty bullying in grade nine. Her parents helped it stop but the deed was done. If Raven makes friends, they are with difficulty and very few.

History: Raven was born to a mother who ran away and a father who was very fun but wanted her to have straight As. She did, but only in math, biology, Drama and geography. She has a step mom who she likes but doesn't relate to much and a step brother who alternated between being a supporting older brother and a brat brother. She has a large family, which she loves and admires since most of them are poor. She has a natural gift with normal animals such as cats and dogs and is ok with wild animals. She trys to go swimming as often as possible but can't bring herself to swiom past the shallow end of public pools or shorelines of lakes and rives. She also likes climbing, mountains are ok because they are solid but stairs, cliffs, trees and houses aren't. She got her job at 17, working it part time doing stuff like sending supplies. After she graduated, Raven decided to visit her family and was brought to the island somehow but she knew ahead of time that she was going. Also, Raven is a blue belt in Karate and kabuto. She's got a major in geography and secondary degrees in Drama and biology in Toronto University. Raven has also had unfortunate bullying problems, both when she was younger and her boss.

Why becoming a bengal is good for her: Raven is afraid of drowning, darkness and height, cats aren't. Also, she secretly fears not being able to get her original hair color back, which is why her hair color coming to the island is semi perminate twisted that'll change. Also, Bengals like swimming and climbing. It'll get rid of her fears, make her less 18 year old partier at night and worker in the day and more of a social person when she meets people and a person with more friends then people she only meets one night that are gone the next. It'll make her more.....stable. Also, I like some of the looks a bengal can have like for example, the gold dust fur effect.

Why part egyptian mau? because they are cool, enough said.

Why she was chosen/ got to the island: She is currently working so either she got stolen, was offered a job or moved for medical reasons, any'll work, in fact......

(Sorry, I forgot the bengal cat description)

The Bengal is a medium to large domestic feline that originates from crossings of the small Asian Leopard Cat (ALC) to the domestic cat in an attempt to create a companion with an "exotic" look but a domestic temperament. After four to five generations of Bengal-to-Bengal breeding, the breed is recognized for championship competition by most international domestic cat associations including TICA, ACFA, GCCF, and AACE.

Brown spotted tabby Bengals The Bengal's beautiful coat makes it stand out in a crowd. Numerous shades make up the background color of the Bengal, ranging from golden, rust, brown and orange, to sand, buff, or even ivory. Bengal spots also vary in color, from rust or cocoa and chocolate brown to charcoal or black. Some Bengal patterns have inherited striking rosettes or spots made up of more than one color, usually a secondary color forming a dark outlining to the spot.

Brown and Snow Marbles
The second Bengal pattern is called marble. This is created by the combination of rosettes from the Asian Leopard Cat and the domestic classic tabby pattern to produce a "marbleized" look, one or more colors swirled into the base colors. Ideally, both the spotted and marbled patterns should have a horizontal flow rather than a vertical appearance. Since the original purpose for bree
ding Bengal cats was to try to replicate the look of the exotic spotted Asian Leopard Cat, the dominant spotted pattern is most common.


The Bengal Cat has a happy, active, interactive and extremely intelligent personality. Every domestic cat breed has its unique features, and the exotic heritage of the Bengal cat can be seen in their every day activities. While Bengals will happily search out a lap or stretch out on the sofa next to you during naptime, they are very active during the rest of the day.


Bengals watching TVThe energetic Bengal is not for people who just want a leopard print cat for decoration. Whether they are fishing in the aquarium or playing in their water-bowls, fetching balls for their families, taking walks on a leash or climbing to the top of the highest cupboards, Bengals are constantly on the move and are perfect for anyone who wants to interact and play with their cat daily. The Bengal cat, like many other pets, demands a good deal of attention and affection and enjoys being an integral part of the family.

(Specific look I want is the gold dust and a look that's sorta a mix between the Asian leopard cat and egyptian mau, so basically sorta silvery with the gold dust look and marble patterns, spots won't identify it)

Donators (because I'm very very poor) : 8k/20k


Type of auction and/or extras: Normal with silver rossettes outlining black spots on the bengal which is a normal bengal with the gold dust effect.
(To give you artists a challenge xd )

Yep! ^_^ Bengal cats are awesome!!! Thanks for being the first poster other then me!!! biggrin

Ohh yeah, If I can get enough and don't get impacient, I might try and get her back wings. There are a couple of reasons.
One: She is based after me so her grandma is christian and because of that she believes in angels.
Two: It'll make her freak out more with her obsession over the supernatural.
Three: I was thinking black raven wings which is contradictory to her sometimes kind personality.
Four: Wings are cool and finally
Five: It would be so ironic with her name!!! So, I'll put up the poll and if enough people agree it will be my main, higher goal.

I sincerely appologize for my long absence from this guild but I got distracted by my other account stuff and besides that my computer time is restricted. I'll try and be on more though now.
