Corvi - Runner of Arden
(casting - Christina Ricci)
Corvi was technically
never a Ranger of Arden,
but she served with the Rangers for many years as a runner, carrying
messages and light supplies between posts and positions. Corvi
appeared on the outskirts of The Mews one day, without reason or
explanation, when the young girl was probably in her early teens.
And Robin was in her later twenties.
Feeling lonely after the loss of both Rattle and Fetch, Robin adopted the young 'spook' as a friend and eased her way into the somewhat rough and ready society of the Rangers While Corvi never became very social, preferring to remain quiet and in the shadows, Robin's steadfast and exuberant nature drew the girl out enough that none of the Rangers doubted that Corvi was worth her feeding.
Corvi's ability to move quickly and unnoticeably between positions was good enough to be eerie, even among the silent ghosts of Julian's best. Her reticence, timidity and odd moments of almost supernatural anticipation of events only increased her reputation for spookiness among the Rangers. But then, they have never felt that this was necessarily a bad thing.
Corvi was one of the few people that Robin said good-bye to a she set off on the Black Road. And the Ranger has not heard the faintest rumor or whisper of where Corvi has gotten to since. She only knows that the runner is gone.
