Boy Sad Biography
Source (Google.com.pk)During the Titans Hunt story arc she was captured by the Wildebeest Society who intended to use her to revive Trigon.
Later, another version of Raven appeared, this time, possessed by her evil conscience. She attempted to implant seeds of Trigon's children into new bodies. She crashed the wedding of Dick Grayson and Koriand'r of Tamaran, and implanted one of the seeds into the alien princess. However, she actually implanted the seed of the good Raven, which caused Starfire to leave Earth in order to escape from the evil Raven and go on a spiritual journey. Raven then implanted seeds into several superheroes. The Titans were able to defeat her with the help of Phantasm.
Raven returned later, still evil, in order to destroy her good self which she had implanted in Starfire. The Titans defeated her once again, for the last time. The good Raven remained as a golden spirit without a physical body.
Golden Spirit
During her time as a golden spirit Raven remained mostly absent from Earth and events there, spending much of the time travelling with Cyberion and Changeling. However, as Victor slowly lost himself to his Technis programming, Changeling eventually returned to Earth. Due to a mix between his programming and his human desires, Victor eventually returned to Earth as well as the massive Technis Planet and proceeded to collect his Titan friends and all those who had ever been a Titan, trapping those he captured in what he believed would be pleasing VR simulations. As a spirit, Raven couldn't be captured in this fashion and helped break the others out before having to contain Victor's soul as it was to be extracted from the Technis Planet and implanted within a new body; the Omegadrome. It was not without difficulty as Victor was wrecking havoc both on every system on Earth and through the sheer mass of his artificial planet that was slowly consuming the Moon and the JLA initially believed he should be destroyed, as Victor was technically dead. As Titans fought Justice League, Raven pacified the New God Orion, who would only revert to his own persona after the battle was over, having given Magneta a hug for her efforts before that.
Raven would later appear once more during the Our Worlds at War story, if only briefly, being part of Wonder Woman's plan to re-power Darkseid by channeling the prayers of the Amazons into him. When faced with Raven, Darkseid remain unsure what to make of her, what he didn't know either was that while he was being re-powered, Raven also took a tiny sliver of Wonder Woman's soul and implanted it within Darkseid as a form of revenge for his slaughter of half of her sisters (during the initial story of John Byrne's run on WW).

Raven as a student could't escape her demonic father - Titans #1
Raven eventually returned to corporeal form by a new Brother Blood. Sebastian, had as foretold slain his father to become Brother Blood though his mother goes unmentioned and his existence is unexplained. And he had plans to marry her in order to bring about the apocalypse, where only his true believers would be spared. It was discovered by Tim Drake, Starfire, Deathstroke and Ravager that the source of all the Brother Blood's power ultimately stemmed from Trigon, explaining why they sought her out and why the old one had been mostly immune to her. Her former team intervened and saved her from this fate and she subsequently rejoined them. She also started a normal life by enrolling in a high school under the name of Rachel Roth, taking the last name of her biological mother. It was also during this time that she developed the most lasting relationship of her life, after she and Beast Boy began dating. Another conflict with Brother Blood and his own team of reanimated Titans led to Raven and Beast Boy traveling to the afterlife where with the aid of Kid Eternity they managed to stop the threat.
In the events leading up to Infinite Crisis and due to the effects of the Specter's destruction of magic during the Day of Vengeance storyline, Raven's powers have weakened and slipped out of her control.

Raven -while on patrol in the North of Gotham - felt fear from someone. She went to a cemetery where a cult was trying to sacrifice an unknown girl. For the first time in her life, Raven demonstrated she is a good fighter when she wants to be. She defeated all of them and after that she ran with the girl to a church. She felt as though she knew that place. After thinking about it she remembered that was the church were she was conceived. The girl, without thinking of it twice attacked her. She said she was the spitting image of her mother (Arella) when she was young. The girl transformed herself and revealed her true identity: Envy. She was her brother who wanted Raven to join the rest of the family. She refused his proposal because she said she has her own family now (The Titans). She won the battle easily with her powers. She subsequently felt out of touch with emotion for a brief time.
Teen Titans #100 - Beast Boy and Raven
Raven rejoined the Teen Titans around the same time as Garfield, after first being attacked by the monstrous Wyld that aimed to feed off her empathic powers. She was found by the Titans but didn't regain consciousness before the Wyld came for her again, where she managed to beat it back. The Wyld would soon return however and brought Raven to its world of origin, where it revealed it was her son, of sorts. The Wyld explained it was an amalgam of monsters that were fused together by Raven's soulself as she had passed though its world in a search for Trigon.
Recently she has been seen as the only Titan openly defending Damian Wayne's admission onto the team, besides Cassandra. Also she attempts to calm the angered Headcase, a bullied youth granted telekinetic powers by Dr. Caligan, succeeding in doing so until Damian decided to intervene resulting in Headcase's escape. With the addition of Solstice to the team, Raven has felt slightly outed, as there is something about Kiran that drives Raven away from her. During their initial mission together, Raven snapped twice at Solstice, once because she felt suffocated by her presence, resulting a in a blastwave of power erupting from her. Later on openly attacking Kiran after being released along with the other Titans by her and Beast Boy, before Garfield was able to calm her down and direct her to wipe out an oncoming horde of demons. When Superboy-Prime finally returned to take out Superboy once and for all, Raven came face to face with Headcase again, this time claiming he was prepared to absorb her knowledge of the Dark Arts which he imagined would make him into a god. However, as with their second encounter, as Red Robin put it; 'He got into her head, big mistake.' This time he was brought into her personal space, where he was again caught, unprepared seeing an illusion of a demonic-looking Raven.
