Raphael delights in enticing mortals with offers, especially to those whose circumstances leave them with few options. Back home in the hells, Raphael resides in the House of Hope , a lavish and seemingly welcoming place where he brings potential clients. Raphael has dark hair and faintly red skin, which deepens into a brighter red when he sheds his human disguise. In his true form, he has the tell-tale characteristics of a cambion; significantly with thick and decorative curved horns, and a set of pointed wings with visible membranes, similar to that of a bat.
While fiendishly ascended, Raphael's form forgoes its remaining humanoid qualities. Wreathed in flame and two sloping horns, his head is an amalgamation of three animalistic faces with skin stretched tight over bone. His faces total three glowing, yellow eyes, each with tusked gums and open nasal cavities, exposing bloody muscle.
His body visibly glows with hellfire, laced with dark, bone-like structures that lead down his arms, torso and digitigrade legs. Raphael is cunning, manipulative, and incredibly confident, though easily angers when he is undermined.
Although his station grants him power and rank higher than many other devils, he hungers for more, and is resolute in his goals. Raphael enjoys poetry and his own theatricality, as well as tormenting and playing with people in creatively cruel ways. He is also narcissistic to the point that his father sent an incubus, who could appear as a more youthful version of Raphael, to distract him.
Raphael is heir to the archdevil Mephistopheles , a status granting him power and rank above that of other devils. He is proprietor to the House of Hope , a falsely welcoming home used to lure in those he wishes to bind into his service with infernal contracts. The nature of Raphael's contracts are such that the contractee will inevitably owe him a debt. Those individuals would eventually become Eternal Debtors. One such contractee was the architect of Moonrise Towers. They bargained to end Ketheric Thorm's Dark Justiciar army in exchange for their soul.
