Raven Lydia Baxter is the main character in the television series on the Disney Channel, That's So Raven, interpreted for Raven-Symoné. In general, she is a teenage girl with a daring style, and a stranger capacity of foreseeing the future.

Personality

Raven usually acts like a normal teenage girl, but (because she can see the future), she tends to try to prevent what may or may not happen later. She has a number of admirers, and is known to be a good friend, but she can also be bossy and self-absorbed at times. She often misinterprets her visions, many of which make her think that things will work out in her favor, which adds to her ego.

Appearance

Raven's body-type and hairstyle change throughout the series (slim or thick in the middle; brown, sandy brown, black, or dirty blonde). In the episode "That's So Not Raven", she attends a magazine photo-shoot, but they change her picture because she does not have "'the look'". She has an outgoing sense of fashion, and likes to dress very fashionable. In order to achieve this, she usually designs her own clothes, and adds her own accessories. She often tugs at her outfits in the series to prevent wardrobe malfunctions.

Family

Raven has two parents, Tanya (mother) and Victor (father) Baxter, and a younger brother, Cory. She has a good relationship with her parents, and a love/hate relationship with Cory.

Friends

Raven has many friends, but her best friends are Edward "Eddie" Thomas and Chelsea Daniels. There are some love triangles between them, but in the end, they are all just good friends.

Enemies and Dislikes

Her main nemeses are Alana (Adrienne Bailon), Bianca (Erica Rivera), Muffy (Ashley Drane), and Loca (friend, but acts as enemies in front of Loca's friends, who are Raven's enemies) (Andrea Edwards). Her more recent nemesis is Tiffany (Jodi Shilling), who "competes" with Raven to be Donna Cabonna's top assistant. Raven's neighbor, Sierra, can also be quite annoying, as can another local kid, Stanley.

Careers

Raven has had many jobs, such as a waitress and dog-groomer. But in Season 4, Raven lands an internship with (fictional) world-famous fashion designer Donna Cabonna (Anne-Marie Johnson).

Visions

The main plotline revolves around Raven's psychic powers allowing her to catch brief glimpses into the future. This is characterized by her going into a blank stare, and the TV audience seeing the "vision". She has no real control over her visions, but they usually involve whatever she is thinking about at the moment when she gets her vision. Raven once learns that her Grandma Viv (Jennifer Lewis) is also a psychic, but not her mother, meaning that "the psychic gene" must have skipped a generation.

Sayings

Raven's catchphrases are "I'm okay!", "Ya nasty!", "Oh Snap!", "Gotta go!", and "How y'all doin'?" In addition, she tends to scream hysterically when she's excited or panicked.

Boys

Raven has had many crushes, but the only serious one has been Devon Carter (Lil' J), whom she initially fought for with Alana.
