A quick sketch of Raik along with some info about her — since there's barely anything out there yet.
Raik is not a name but a nickname that eventually became her name. She comes from another universe, having ended up in the world of The Legend of Korra against her will.
Raik is a very changeable person with a great deal of past trauma, so few people know the truth about her past. Even those who do are mostly misinformed. Meanwhile, her dark green eyes have changed to a gray-green color.
She first met Korra when she was about four or five years old. After that, she started visiting her, helping her, and telling her stories — especially about how the White Lotus isn't as noble as it seems, and that anarchy is the best path.
Raik possesses magical abilities, but in the later seasons, her power weakened due to betrayals and the loss of important people.
· She walks into the Spirit World as if it's her own home.
· By the end of that whole madhouse, she dyed her hair red with blue tips.
· She convinced Korra to get tattoos and then spent a month covered in bruises.
· At 31, she feels like she's 100 years old.
· At some point, she annoyed Aiwei so much that he now avoids any meeting with her.
· "I would kill Suyin. Well, she has bodyguards — and my promise to three people" (Korra, Lin, and Aiwei).
· A walking joke and catchphrase: "Guess what I'll do next?"
· For a period of her life, she was bald.
· She knew the Equalists and was even a member of them long before the events of the first season. She was kicked out a year later after being framed for an assassination attempt on Lieutenant. She was lucky to convince Amon not to kill her.
· I'm still deciding whether she's for anarchy or democracy. She leans more toward anarchy — especially since I have a backup Avatar.
· To Korra, she's like a second mother, a mentor, and simply a crazy friend. At least, that's how it usually is — right now, they've had a bit of a falling out.
· A hater of the White Lotus and everyone else.
· Mako is her punching bag.
