I'm back after thinking about the theory, and holy shit, I'm pretty sure that Raven is totally a Maiden because-- oh you guys were already discussing it... ;n; I'll say it anyway.

Qrow seemed really bitter and annoyed about how Maidens were chosen. Let's assume that Raven was a random pick because the Maiden before her thought of someone unsuitable (a male or an elderly woman).

He feels that it's unfair that Raven got randomly chosen as Maiden, due to the way that it caused her to have to leave behind the family she had just started! He's frustrated that he can't tell his niece why her mother left her!!

While they were talking about Maidens, he brought out his flask and started drinking!!
