This is Raven Dust! She is one of my older ocs I made when I was in elementary school. She is the daughter of the Nattmara and is 1,706 years old. Her birthday is January 21st which she shares with her twin brother Hawk. She’s from Norway and can speak a little bit of French, Japanese, and Old Norse. She’s fluent in Norwegian, English, and German. She’s currently learning Gothic.
Raven is a confident, creative, and fun person. She likes dark clothing, metal (goth, Viking, a tiny bit of pop, industrial metal) music. She’s a musician and is famous for her music. Hawk helps her with the music. Raven likes to write as a coping mechanism and sometimes turns them into songs. Raven likes to draw as a hobby, with her artstyle looking like a Marvel comic book character. She’s terrifying when she’s angry. She’s very caring, a good listener, thoughtful, and very loyal to her boyfriend and friends.
On the other hand, she’s not all that perfect. Raven is reckless and sometimes would do things without coming up with a plan. She had a history with depression and self harm. She also had an abusive ex in 2018. She’s doing better and has grown as a person. Raven hates it when people raise their voice or look like they are going to throw something at her. The reason is because that reminds her of her ex. I’d say she’s still healing.
You can learn more about her by visiting my Instagram with the same username
I hope you like her! Ask questions if you’d like!
50 ways to leave your lover (while you’re still in love with them)
In Scandinavia, a race of female werewolves
named Nattmara, or nightmare in English,
slip through cracks in walls and come to rest atop sleeping residents,
turning their dreams like an abacus.
Sometimes, they are small children whose souls escape at night
to pursue the living.
Leaving you was a haunting
but staying was a ghosting
without the cutting off of contact.
You were my nightmare
but I welcomed you to my bed.
Some hours, I curse the ancestors
who led me to you; other hours
I bless them.
At night I practice my own version of echolalia
by repeating I love you over and over again
pretending it’s chanted in your voice.
Years after having fled from you, when the Nattmara
cross thousands of miles to slide through my door
I turn the lights off. I hold my breath.
I close my eyes, picture you in my mind,
waiting for their bodies to press down on me
as yours once did.
I feel like my WIP needs a Real World Problem to parallel the Paranormal Problem, ya know
Other things still up for grabs in the grand SALE, which ends tomorrow.
