Meet Raven Alexis: Your WoW-Playing, Star Trek-Loving, PC-Modding Crush Object

There are many stereotypes out there about pornstars: Raven Alexis demolishes pretty much all of them. When we heard about Digital Playground's geeky new addition, we knew we had to get her on the phone.

And having done so, we're pleased to announce that Raven does, in fact, live up to the hype. A smart, capable girl who loves Star Trek, World of Warcraft, and, of course, making porn, she's a geek's dream. Add to that the fact that she's got a head for business, and runs not one, but two sites all on her own, and well—it should be easy to see why we're totally smitten. Looking to fall in love yourself?

Fleshbot: So just to get started, can you tell me a little bit about yourself? Where are you from, how long have you been doing adult, how did you get into adult?
Raven Alexis: I'm originally from the Northwest and I've been living in Las Vegas for about three years now. I've done a lot of online work; I've done some dvd work as well and I have my own websites that I started and I work really hard on those and obviously now I'm with DP, so that's kind of me in a nutshell.

What made you decide to start your own site?
I've always kind of wanted to have my own website, to start my own business, be my own boss. And it just seemed like the web is where everything is right now.

For your own website, how much of the business end did you do? Were you also doing any technical stuff?
I own and operate them. I do have two webmasters that help me operate them, but I can do pretty much everything just in case someone can't do something. So I edit occasionally, I update the sites occasionally....I'm my own production company, so I try to be as hands on as possible and involve myself in everything a little bit.

What's the difference between ravenalexis.com and ravensplayhouse.com?
Raven's Playhouse is my first site and it's exclusively solo...solo masturbation, solo stuff. It's much more girl next door, sweet girl stuff. Raven Alex has my boy-girl, girl-girl. It's got kind of a collection of stuff on it. It has a backstage pass area on it where they can actually just kind of see see me in regular life doing regular life things.

How long have you been doing hardcore?
I have been doing it...I want to say for a year and a half now.

And what made you decide to start doing hardcore? Was it something you planned all along?
Yeah, it's definitely something I planned. I wanted to get a lot of solo glamour work under my belt. I wanted to make sure it was the right time and everything. And I've done it exclusively on my own site, on Raven Alexis, so all along I've been wanting to go to the next level. And Digital Playground has definitely been in my sights. I just think they're an amazing company and now I finally get the opportunity to work with them.

Do you consider yourself a geek? Is that how you self identify?
Definitely, yeah. I'm proud of it.

So what's the geekiest thing about you?
Um, well, there's a lot of geeky things. I play a lot of computer games, I play a lot of Xbox, I go to Comic-Con every year. I have a huge Star Trek thing, I go to Star Trek conventions.... Um yeah I'm very into gadgets, into sci-fi, just not really your typical girl, I guess.

In terms of gadgets, what are your favorite gadgets?
My iPhone definitely is my favorite. I don't go anywhere without that. My computer. I have several. I have my gaming machines and then I have my laptop.

What kinds of computers do you have?
I have one Mac that I do all my website stuff on, then I have actually my two PCs that I built out myself. They're water cooled; they've got all the latest on them.

Are you mainly into Star Trek? Are there other sci-fi things you like?
I like Star Trek, it's probably my favorite. Battlestar Galactica is probably my second favorite. I do watch Star Wars. I'm not as into them, but I think I'm more of a trekkie than a Star Wars person, but I like them all and I'll give anything a chance. But I think Star Trek is my favorite and BSG is my second.

New BSG or old BSG?
I would have to say old. I watch the new stuff but it doesn't do as much for me.

And which breed of Star Trek?
The Next Generation.

I also heard you play World of Warcraft.
Yes, I do.

Did you know there's a porn star guild in World of Warcraft?
I did not know that, no...If there is such a thing I would definitely be interested.

Have you run into any issues with your account? Mia Rose, one of the pornstars who plays World of Warcraft actually had her account banned because of being a pornstar.
No I haven't. I don't really discuss it. You know, I've played it for, gosh, five, six years now. I don't really discuss what I do. I don't you know let it be known who I am or anything like that. Yeah, I haven't run into any problems with that.

Have you shot any scenes for Digital Playground yet?
Yes, I have. I actually just finished doing something for them that's going to be released hopefully just right in time for the AVNs. We're just focusing on filming as much as we can.

Do you know what it's going to be called or is it still untitled?
I don't. I think they kind of keep those things untitled until the last second, you know?

Can you talk about who did you get to work with?
Oh, I can't actually say who I worked with but it was a great team and they were two of the best performers in the industry so it's not going to disappoint for sure.

Oh, two? Did you do two separate scenes?
It was one scene.

Oh, okay. Oh my goodness. Are you planning on working with males, females, both?
Both, all, you know, as much as I can get. I love sex and I love men and women equally.

Are there things you haven't done on camera yet that you are looking forward to doing?
I always I want to do new stuff all the time....I'm always looking to kind of push the envelope and do as much crazy kinky fun stuff as possible.

What would you say is your favorite fetish?
Um, gosh. I like BDSM, I like I have a kind of strange mask fetish, kind of like the "Eyes Wide Shut" thing. I have a lot of different kinks that I enjoy, but BDSM is probably the top contender.

Do you consider yourself a top or a bottom?
A top.

You live in Las Vegas, right?
Yes, I do.

So if I were to come to Las Vegas, what would be something I would absolutely have to do?
Oh gosh. I think probably the most important thing here in Vegas is the old strip, the Fremont Street experience. I have a fascination with all things classic and retro, so it's pretty cool to see the old classic Vegas like you see in all the movies.

Are there things you see as a local that tourists don't normally see?
I think everybody thinks that vegas is crazy crazy 24/7, you know? But there's a huge outdoors scene, = hiking and ski clubs and things like that. There's a huge suburban feel to it as well. So, I think people tend to just see the strip and don't realize how much it has to offer for actually like living here and doing other stuff.
