Raven Queen
The Raven Queen, Matron of Death, also commonly known as the Matron of Ravens and the Mother, is the goddess of death and fate she is also considered the goddess of twilight, inevitability and the passage of time, presiding over the transition between life and death. Originally a mortal woman before the age of Divergence, she ascended to godhood and destroyed the previous god of death. After her ascension, her true name and the knowledge of how she became a god has long been lost. .
Divine Domains
One of the Raven Queen's divine realms in the Shadowfell was a castle known as the Fortress of Memories. It was a place of overwhelming sorrow, overflowing with memories taken from mortals and fragments of dead deities, material objects collected by the shadar-kai and brought to her as gifts, and apparitions of creatures and places associated with strongly emotional stories. Swarms of ravens occasionally flew out of the fortress, taking her cryptic messages to the far reaches of the multiverse and acting as the Queen's eyes and ears while away.
