Most of Ravinica's history has been lost in time, but it is known that she was born thousands of years ago and spent the first years of her existence as an orphan. Although her parentage is unknown, she was considered human at one time despite the weak traces of demonic blood coursing through her veins. It would be these same weak traces of demonic blood that would set the path for her.
At around he age of 20, Ravinica felt herself drawn to Athens, Greece in the search of her parents, but fate intervened and she found herself madly in love with a man who resided within the city.
For over a year the couple seemed to be happy, then Ravinica felt heartbreak for the first time when the man was discovered to have impregnated another woman. The two were married, and all the while Ravinica saw them living together ever so happily; her own thoughts eating at her brain, and a vendetta against her fomer lover began to form within her consciousness.
During this time, Ravinica heard of a powerful sorcerer by the name of Mortiis who resided in an otherworldly Realm known as Taratarus, a place so dark and forboding that not even Lucifer would enter. She thought that maybe this Mortiis could help her in her quest for vengence against her former beloved.
With the help of her weak demonic blood, Ravinica eventually reached Tartarus despite the four month-long trek, but it was worth it, for once there and after much asking around, she met the man which she sought. She told him her story, and being the hopeless romantic, he agreed to help her.
Mortiis gave Ravinica a noxious liquid and instructed her to drink it. As she drank, the demonic energy in her blood reacted, granting her spraling horns and a long forked tail as well as digitigrade talons and the ability to create and command plagues. Willing to learn what the Sorcerer was willing to teach her, Ravinica learned to control her new abilities and became well-versed in the art of sorcery. Six months thereafter, Ravinica returned to Greece, sending the what is now referred to as 'The Plague Of Athens', taking down her former lover, his wife and their baby as well as many other innocent bystanders in its wake.
Once Ravinica succeeded in her revenge, she settled down and opened up a clothing store in Hell's Capital of Pandemonium known as The Flesh Field, which has since become the bestselling clothing store and spa in all of Hell.

So, despite a possibly dying computer monitor and much blood, sweat, and tears, I finally got this finished. There are many things I absoloutely HATE about this piece, but at the same time there are many things which I LOVE about it. Either way, I did enjoy working on it.

Despite her rather Fighting American-esque origins, my Plague Goddess Ravinica is shaping up to be a character that I can be proud of with her spiraling horns and raptor feet.
So, with that aside, here she is, sitting on a poorly drawn...table of come sort smoking a cigarette. The 'smoke goes in grey/white, but comes out green due to Miss Ravi's toxicity. It's a weird thing she picked up during an RP with ~AnarchicQ that stuck.
I wouldn't walk into that room though. You might die from the miasma, and I doubt Ravinica would open the window for you.
