In Danish folklore, a valravn (Danish "raven of the slain") is a supernatural raven. The ravens appear in traditional Danish folksongs, where they are described as originating from ravens who eat the bodies of the dead on the battlefield, as capable of turning into the form of a knight after eating the entire heart of a child, and, alternately, as half-wolf and half-raven creatures. … No folclore dinamarquês, um valravn (dinamarquês “corvo do morto”) é um corvo sobrenatural. Os corvos aparecem em canções folclóricas dinamarquesas tradicionais, onde são descritos como originários de corvos que comem os corpos dos mortos no campo de batalha, como capazes de se transformar na forma de um cavaleiro depois de comerem todo o coração de uma criança e, alternadamente, como criaturas meio-lobo e meio-corvo.

A legend of the European and the Northern lands, this creature would instill terror in the hearts of the children who would not slip into bed in time. Certain tales claim that it’s terrible form bears holes in the eyes and wings, which would spread ill fortune, disease, and even death to those unlucky enough to stare into them.

We need those tough emotions and feelings to survive life! But.. sometimes it can be a bit hard to control. Especially when ND or struggling with mental illnesses. In Zephyr’s case - some of these feelings triggers something much more … real… that needs to be controlled. And he probably would’ve liked to have avoided it all together.
But does he really?

Getting there! He finally looks like something. Glueing is always the scariest part for me so I’m glad it went okay.

VALRAVN
In Danish folklore, a valravn is a creature originating from ravens who consume the bodies of the dead on the battlefield, and are capable of turning into the form of a knight. When a king or chieftain was killed in battle and not found and buried, ravens came and ate him. The ravens became valravne, and the valravne that ate the king’s heart gained human knowledge and superhuman powers.
Spark form #5: Meet the Nachtkrapp! A bird from German folktales that is said to bring death with its eyes and disease with its wings, it also enjoys children as its meal.
Nachtkrapp sparks are usually more nocturnal and prone to be powerful magicians. Do not cross one because not even death will give you an escape from their wrath.
Many more spark forms are on their way! Hope these help you all to make your own spark OCS for the comic!
