Trivia[]

  • Raki was the third animal familiar added to the game.
  • Before he was officially added to the game, Raki was found in the game's files however there was a note from Supergiant Games asking players not to leak information about Raki until he was implemented into the game.
  • Ravens, and their close cousins the crow, are often associated with witchcraft and death. Witches are also said to be able to transform into them to fly away.
  • The fact Raki is white instead of the common black feathered species references the first raven, whose feathers were white until Apollo changed them to black after it delivered the message that his lover Coronis was being unfaithful.
  • κοράκι (koráki) means crow or raven in Greek and is from where the name Raki originates.
