Like all ra'zac she can make humans paralyzed for a moment with fear. Along with dwarves to an extent, but it has no affect to elves.

As she grew older she eventually learned how to make it so it affects elves, but that was mostly an accident on her part.

Character Personality: She is strange energetic, loving, kind, and caring, all traits none would expect from a ra'zac. Most of her friends are oddly human along with the occasional dragon that came by. She always stared into the desert with awe, hoping to one day meet more dragons, the nomadic ones mostly since it was them she saw mostly. The youngest of her siblings, she has the usual privates as most younger siblings and was just as spoiled by her adopted parents. She always knew she was different though, and though kind, she often seems cold. Of her friends, only one of them was a real friend, the rest tolerated her, most feared her since she was a ra'zac. Most of the other people in her village fear her and stay far away, at least when they have the chance, most of the time she is trying to make conversation with them and talk. She is only cold around people she doesn't know, or ones that were mean to her. Her village had seen few ra'zac, but why her parents did adopt her she never found out. She often feel in love with several human males, but none of them ever felt the same towards her. She had given up on love long ago, but still tries to keep the few friends she has. Ever since Galbatorix's two ra'zac attacked her village more people begun to fear her, thinking she would do likewise. The betrayal hurt her greatly when she found out she'd be banished from the village though it was her who saved them from being destroyed. It was the only time she exploded. While the mayor and other leaders of the village were banishing her, she went out and showed them the full fear blast, sending them cowering to their knees. Afterwards she stormed off away from the village.

Character History: Her egg hatched just outside the Hadarac Desert, her parents vanished shortly after, killed by the nomadic dragons of the Hadarac. The dragons did not notice her as they flew away. Though a ra'zac, her cries were oddly human. A day later she was near death when a man from a nearby village found her while out hunting. Taking her in his arms he took in the helpless baby, not caring if she was what humans naturally feared. His wife and older children took her in with open arms as they raised her. Since she is ra'zac, they still gave her the traditional ra'zac cloak which she always wears. As she grew up she learned about human culture though it had always worried her why her fellow classmates and even her teachers were frightened of her. When she asked her father he only replied, "I'll tell you when you're older." Crestfallen she went to the village's small library and found out about ra'zac, and how humans were naturally afraid of them. Frightened herself, she shoved the book away and strangely begun to cry. She never liked how the humans were all afraid of her, and she told herself she would somehow keep it in. In only a few short months she was able to master her ability to make humans fear her.
When she was sixteen it was the year most women in her village were to marry, though she had no partner since she had never dated and her friends that were guys mostly feared her or when she grew older didn't want much to do with her. It did hurt her greatly, but she tried not to show it, instead, she just celebrated her friends, though she only did have one real friend. Casey was her best friend, and she had been friends with her from a young age.
Casey had convinced Radenya to take off her cloak and try wearing human clothes. Radenya herself was disgusted by the idea, but Casey had been suffering from a deadly illness, and Radenya did what her friend wanted. It was strange for her, and she hated the strange looks the humans gave her. Most laughed at her, she was always kind to them, but it almost frightened her to see them ridicule her, and throw insults at her. After school that day she ran home and put back on her cloak. She simply liked her cloak better, it suited her more than human clothes did. And to make it worse, when she went to visit Casey in the hospital Casey herself laughed at Radenya. Radenya only stared in amazement, her 'friend' only wanted a reason to feel better and knew Radenya would do as she asked. Snarling, she came close to releasing her fear on Casey, but didn't, feeling bad about doing something like that to someone so ill. Fuming with rage she left the healers and went to the edge of the village. She thought of running away, staring into the distance. She had seen many dragons, and wondered what it would be like to fly on one. Walking some way towards the desert she tripped over a strange stone. Stumbling she turned back and stared in amazement. It wasn't a stone, but a deep orange dragon egg. Staring at it, she picked it up and held it to herself. Turning back, she saw several people running at her. Gripping her short swords, she released them when she saw it was only her elder brothers and father. Telling what happened, she fell into the comforting embrace of her father who soothed her. Her brothers helped her get back while her father went to speak with Casey. The dragon egg amazed her the most. She had no idea how it came to her, but she treasured it deeply. Doubting a dragon would hatch for a ra'zac, she kept it hidden with her, just in case. Even so she did often think of other ra'zac. She knew Galbatorix had a few, but she didn't want to be like them, even worse to serve the mad king. Still she was starting to have doubts about her home village.
On her eighteenth birthday she heard news that several soldiers from the empire were coming. Most wanted to hide her, but she refused, saying she'd be fine in her cloak. As the soldiers came they brought three ra'zac with them, she stared at them with amazement. Wanting to speak with them so badly yet she hesitated, they weren't like her, they seemed... evil. It wasn't the only time she questioned herself, if she was evil or not. Two days after the soldiers arrived, she heard rumors that they were searching for someone with a dragon egg. She froze in worry for her egg, though it had been two years, she wanted to hold onto it. Keeping it hidden, she knew her brothers and father wouldn't betray her.
A loud explosion woke her up, jolting her from the bed. Jumping to the air, she pulled out her sword, but know attackers were inside. Taking the egg in a small sack, she put on her cloak and darted outside to see several buildings in fire. Rage filled her as she saw the soldiers and ra'zac brining destruction to her home. Snarling, she targeted one of the ra'zac. She had learned to fight from her brothers, but she had never before fought another ra'zac. Clashing blades the two fought for several long minutes. Radenya was losing the fight when a young human man who she often considered a friend changed the ra'zac. The ra'zac noticed out of the corner of its eye and blocked his swipe, but on doing so, Radenya stabbed him through the chest. The ra'zac collapsed to the ground and soon after the remaining soldiers and two other ra'zac fled. Glancing at Jeff he pulled her to her feet and the two helped out survivors. Though after the battle he never admitted that he had helped her. Even so she couldn't blame him, not after seeing what happened and hearing that several humans had been consumed.
As the next week passed the attitude towards her worsened. Several people threatened her, demanding her to leave. Often times she stayed in her house for days when the threats grew bad. On the twentieth day several people stormed her house and she received a surprising letter from the mayor. She was to be banished. Angry, she stormed to the mayor's house, but only to see a mob. To her relief, her parents and siblings weren't in the mob, but the mob demanded for her to leave, along with the mayor. Though she defended the village against the attack, they wanted her to leave, no longer trusting the ra'zac that lived in their village. She shot to them how she killed one of the ra'zac and how she had done nothing to them and only wanted to help but they showed none of it. They demanded for her to leave or they would kill her. Snarling she grabbed her sword with rage and her fear attack blasted out to them. Swearing at them and cursing she yelled at them, watching them cower beneath her. Storming away from the village she left without a single goodbye, feeling the bite of the ultimate betrayal. All she took was her cloak which she always wore, her sword, and the dragon egg.

She even changed her cloak in with a lighter black one to not give it right away that she was ra'zac. She carries a pouch with her which is where the dragon egg she has.
