When I was creating Raven back before Little Nightmares 2 came out, I was planning out how she would look like and how will she act.
A part of me really wanted to make her be different from any other child character in little nightmares. Apart from the peculiar red eyes I gave her, I was actually wondering if to either make her blind or deaf too. Being blind didn’t work out for my plans so I thought if to make her deaf instead. It would have been interesting honestly, but then I figured it would have been difficult to communicate with The Janitor if she had to stumble upon him on The Maw, so I decided to leave her as she is and just give her unnaturally red eyes.
Now I’m honestly wondering, how would Raven be if she was deaf? Or partially deaf? Would she be able to mumble out stuff? Would she have owned a hearing aid to help her hear a bit better while still using sign language? Would she struggle to communicate since not everyone understands sign language? Would she be scared of people’s intentions since she can’t hear?
Suddenly I just wonder…What if Raven was deaf?
Oh thats interesting to know. Its nice to see more info about Raven and the thought process behind the character and ideas❤
What happens if you piss off the Lord of Shape Shifting….
For starters, I had mentioned that her emotions can effect her transformations. She ends up in a situation where she’s being bullied by some random thugs, and after having enough of being scared she gets mad enough to unleash the first beast that comes to her mind….
In this case, it’s a giant bear. The main problem is, when she’s mad she can’t be controlled or reasoned with. She instantly manages to scare off the thugs, but now the whole city is her new problem and goes on causing havoc out of pure anger.
You can notice she’s not herself when her gem is glowing uncontrollably and her eyes are shining a yellowish orange, none of her iris or pupils are seen.
How can you manage to calm her down? Well, you can’t. Unless someone physically fights her, she won’t calm down until her energy runs out enough to bring her back to her senses. After she turns back to normal… She will recall nothing that happened after the fit of rage with the thugs.
