Resistance to Aging, Disease, and Toxins: being an android, an inorganic being created outside of nature, the second Red Raven is not susceptible to ailments that typically are the downfall of most normal folks. Should he act to properly maintain his personal systems, the second Raven can wield +8 resistance to these attack forms and phenomenon.

Equipment:

The Red Raven Suit: his primary claim to fame, the Red Raven suit is the vehicle by which the second Red Raven fights evil and participates in the actions of Sky Island society. Though it is a construct, and thus marks its wearer as something less than a true native of Sky Island, Red Raven 2 wears it with pride, as it allows him to fly at a respectable speed, and has several other useful functions. They are:

* Flight: the primary ability of the Red Raven suit is, well, its ability to fly. It can carry Red Raven 2 at an approximate speed of intensity 5; while the suit acquires lift via anti gravity generation, it needs Red to flap the wings in order to generate forward movement. This is still rather fast, mind you, and I'd call this about ninety miles per hour.

* Body Armor: the suit is also proof against small attacks like pistols and such, adding a +2 modifier to the second Red Raven's inherent protection from attack. Furthermore, Red Raven 2 can use his wings as an additional shield, adding another, +3 modifier to his armor. Of course, this is a challenging Agility action for him while he is in flight (but he can still try it).

* Pinion Pistols: hidden within the pinion 'feathers' of the Red Raven Suit's wings, these twin guns fire to inflict +3 damage, based upon Red Raven 2's Agility score of 4. Alternately, the second Red Raven can bludgeon a body with the barrels of these pistols, inflicting +2 damage (as long as he is within striking distance of his target, of course).

Hindrances:

(none)

Skills:

Aerial Combat: having spent 'his' lifetime flying about in the air, Red Raven 2 is naturally rather skilled in airborne fighting techniques. Having honed 'his' skills as the guardian of Sky Island for years and years, Red can use his Agility to resolve battle actions instead of his Strength while in flight, and he uses his Agility instead of his Intellect to resolve the order of action declaration while conducting aerial combat.

Calling:

Protector: since his mind is based on that of the original, human Red Raven, the second Red Raven is a protector by his very nature, doing his best to protect Sky Island from any danger - real or perceived. As such, Red Raven 2 has gotten himself into tussles with various folks, both good and bad, who have expressed interest in 'his' floating city in times past (but he means well).

Costume:

The second Red Raven wears a primarily red suit with red wings, boots, gloves, and a partial mask (head covered, but face exposed). It is complemented with yellow stripes on the ends of his boots and gloves, a yellow belt, and yellow 'Y' straps running from the front center of his belt to his wings. Red Raven 2 never allowed his long red hair to flow free, unlike the original.

Personality:

The second Red Raven has the personality of the first, since the former was based upon the latter - right down to his mental patterns. As such, he was a staunch guardian of Sky Island while its people were in cryogenic storage, a trait that got him into more than one fight with outsiders who happened upon the place. Of course, his solitude eventually got the better of him, and he went mad in time.

Story:

Long ago, before the modern age of heroes began, the residents of Sky Island decided to invade the surface world. Usually a peaceful people, this was a decision that shocked the leader of the island, the original Red Raven. As such, he put his people in suspended animation to allow them to cool off (in more ways than one) - and decided that he should join them himself - it was only fair, after all.

However, he couldn't just leave the floating city-state unprotected. As such, he used the advanced technology of Sky Island to build a special organic construct, one that was identical to himself in every way - right down to his very brain waves. Once this being was in place, and fully believed that it was in fact the original (it didn't know it was a created being), the first Raven sank the Island and then joined his brethren in slumber.

As his people slept, this new Red Raven vowed to protect them from any threat. One such threat the second Raven perceived was the high-flying Angel, a mutant member of the X-Men who happened across Sky Island when it rose from the ocean floor. After dealing with the Angel, the second Red Raven submerged Sky Island once more, though his loneliness was beginning to eat away at him.

He eventually lost it, and decided that his fellow Islanders were right - the surface world must be invaded at once! Of course, when he opened the sleeping chambers, the people of Sky Island all appeared to be dead (though they were simply in a death-like sleep). This caused him to lash out in grief, the result of which caused the island to explode - and sink yet again to the ocean floor.

While this explosion killed him, the second Red Raven's corpse was reanimated by Diablo when he was attempting to raid the remnants of Sky Island for certain technologies, and needed a distraction to keep Namor and the third Red Raven at bay. Of course, it then got demolished by Namor as he drove a steel pylon through it in an attempt to get at the villainous alchemist.

As such, it's likely that we won't be seeing this second Red Raven again - but you never know...
