Raven (#0D1117) is a deep neutral with a mono character. It's a grayscale value, at home in typography, dividers, and the structural layer beneath stronger colors. Its HSL profile (216°, 28%, 7%) places it in the muted band at a dark lightness. It works as a background, hairline border, or text color in dark UI. Swap to true black when you need maximum contrast. Pair it with almost any saturated accent. It's built to sit underneath or behind stronger colors without fighting them. The blue-black of the common raven, whose feathers absorb most visible light and refract a faint oily sheen. In Norse myth, Odin's two ravens Huginn and Muninn brought him news from every corner of the world.
