Raven Baxter



Raven Baxter (played by Raven-Symoné) is a teenage girl from That's So Raven that has the ability to see things in the future by having a strange look to see her visions. Her best friends are Eddie and Chelsea and has a brother named Cory.

Appearance
Raven's body-type and hairstyle change throughout the series (slim or thick in the middle; brown, sandy brown, black, or dirty blonde). She has an outgoing sense of fashion, and likes to dress very fashionably. In order to achieve this, she usually designs her own clothes, and adds her own accessories.

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. Her maternal grandmother is named Vivian, and her paternal grandmother, whom she calls "Nana", is named Loretta.

Friends
Raven has many friends, but her best friends are Edward "Eddie" Thomas and Chelsea "Chels" 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).

‎

Premonitions
The main plot line revolves around Raven's psychic powers allowing her to catch brief glimpses into the future (premonitions). This is characterized by her going into a blank stare, and the TV audience seeing the "premonition". She has no real control over her premonitions, but they usually involve whatever she is thinking about at the moment when she gets her premonition. Raven once learns that her Grandma Viv (Jennifer Lewis) is also a psychic. It is then shown that the "psychic gene" is on Tanya's side of the family, and assumed to be a "chick thing", passed down to every female, but not her mother, meaning that "the gene" must have skipped a generation.

Sayings
Raven's catchphrases are "I'm okay!" (usually after a bad fall), "Ya nasty!" (usually to someone she dislikes), "Oh Snap!", "My Bad!", "Gotta go!", "How y'all doin'?", and "Gently!" In addition, she tends to scream hysterically when she's excited or panicked.

Raven has had many crushes, but the only serious one has been Devon Carter (Lil' J), whom she initially fought for with Alana. She loves him so much that she always thinks about him a lot even in her dreams. She also has a little relationship with Eddie as seen in the episode "When 6021 met 4267" when they kissed.
