Raven (Brave Exvius)

The Raven is the name of two different organizations in Final Fantasy Brave Exvius

Profile
The original Raven was the name of a group of adventurous thieves founded by their leader known as only as "Crow". Several members use an animal motif to name themselves after. The Crow pursued and acquired several treasures for himself which he eventually hid thorough the multiple Vault Keys. For several reasons including the death of many of their members the group stopped their regular activities and settled down in multiple towns, however the organization still exists in present day with their current members guarding the Vaults holding the treasures. Only through recommendation of other members can somebody be eligible to earn those treasures and they must bring on the respective keys themselves.

The second organization, named after the first one, is a Rebel army in the Zoldaad Empire founded and led by Jake in order to overthrow Emperor Sozhe and put a halt to his militaristic tyranny. Due to Sozhe pursuing an arms race in order to secure resources for his nation and making Zoldaad a bigger power, the citizens were forced into a military career while also being heavily taxed. The situation made life in the empire a living hell with little hope for change.

Eventually Jake met with Rain and his party and convinced them to join his movement as Zoldaad was preparing to invade Grandshelt for resources. Rain and Lasswell knowing that their nation could not withstand an invasion after being assaulted by the Sworn Six of Paladia had no option but to join, forcing the party as a whole to assist the rebel movement.

The rebels succeeded in destroying important targets, including the Empire's communication tower and the Fire Crystal, the Empire's main source of energy. The rebels were able to rescue Crown Prince Shera who was imprisoned on suspicion of treason, due to helping the rebels and managed to confront Emperor Sozhe himself who was brainwashed by Dr. Lazarov to perform his cruel experiments on eternal life.

Emperor Sozhe was defeated and with his dying wish, Shera is crowned Emperor. The party pursues Lazarov in command of the airship, the Invincible, encountering Lid's older brother, Evan who was also controlled by Lazarov. Evan regains his senses and uses his airship, the Enterprise to pursue Lazarov. The party infiltrated the Invincible and catch up to Lazarov who battles the party but is defeated by them and later finished off by Veritas of the Heavens who wanted to reclaim the Invincible from the mad scientist. Heavens regains control of the Invincible and departs Zoldaad.

Gameplay
The original Raven serves as a major optional quest section for the player. By finding the Vaults (unlocked through different means), the player can access the many treasures found in each Vault. In order to reclaim them, the player needs to find Keys for that Vault which are found in Treasure Chests in Towns, Explorations, or given as Quest rewards. Upon full completion of a Vault's contents the player is given a final treasure as a reward. There is one Vault per continent found in one of the towns. Completing all of the previous Vault is not a requirement to fetch treasures from the next one, although usually the player will need certain Keys from a Vault to unlock the next Vault, mostly as a result of some Quests being involved before the player can enter the newer Vault.

Keys from Vaults are non-interchangeable, so the player must go to each Vault with the precise Keys or they won't get Treasures.
