Name: Deria
Age: 27
Journal: On file
Contact: On file
Other Characters Played: Manic, Shippo, Satoshi, Ty, Izzy, Rioichi, Alaric
Canon: Rhythm Thief and the Emperor's Treasure
Character: Raphael
Age: 18
Timeline: Post-game
Background:
Found here
Personality:
Raphael is mostly just an average guy on the outside. He tries to make ends meet the best he can and loves his home of Paris greatly. He's not dense, nor is he exceptionally smart. He's good, but not to the point of complete selflessness. He has petty thoughts and desires like most people, and isn't above a snide remark or two, but he's also willing to lend a hand to those in need usually and feels bad when he needs to take advantage of or wrong someone to work towards the bigger picture. He's not easily pressured or deterred, and can be pretty headstrong. He's pretty lighthearted and seems easy enough to get along with.
Despite being the famous thief, Phantom R, Raphael isn't greedy or out for profit. There is always a good reason for his actions and he tries to keep damage to a minimum. He acknowledges that stealing is wrong, but he also actually enjoys his double life. He's normally cautious enough that not many people outside of the police have ever seen R and so he's usually comfortable interacting with people as either the thief or himself. Even as R he doesn't always introduce himself and Fondue, but he almost always does when it's polite to as Raphael.
As Phantom R, he comes off as an almost totally different person even though he really isn't. He's suave, confident, energetic, rebellious, and daring, attracted to mystery and excitement. Even though he's a thief, he doesn't try to hurt law enforcement and will even save their lives if needed. He's still kind enough to sometimes help out the average person in trouble, even things as trivial as a balloon getting stuck in a tree. He doesn't go looking for fights normally, but won't back down from one especially when something's at stake. He's smart enough to know when it's a better idea to make himself and his friends scarce however.
Raphael's father is a large influence on him. He often thinks back on how things were when his dad was around, and he became R to return what his father stole without anyone knowing anything. He doesn't seem to hate him, only wants to find him and at least understand why he left. Fondue is the extension to his family and his closest friend, and he is treated much like a human by Raphael who speaks to and listens to him like any other person. He seems to understand what goes through the dog's head easily, though maybe not word for word, and relies heavily on his support.
Abilities/Additional Notes:
Most noticeably, Raphael has an unnaturally good sense of rhythm, inherited from his late mother. He is very nimble and sure-footed, able to read patterns where they appear and apply that ability to anything from dancing to puzzle-solving to combat.
He's also very fit and agile. He can brawl, but his greatest strength is that he can fluidly evade physical attacks and outmaneuver his foes. He can leap lpng distances even while carrying another person as well.
Advocate Note:
No thanks.

So this place celebrates Christmas too it looks like.
[Raphael gives a small smile and turns the feed enough to show a very festive-looking shop, with lights strung up and Christmas music playing.
A curious bark comes from beside him and the 3STP tips down somewhat accidentally to give a glimpse of a do before facing Raphael again.]
It's nice to see something that's so normal so far from home. It makes me curious though, what does everyone here do for Christmas? Does anything special happen, or just a quiet night with the people who matter?
Sample RP:
Paradise was an interesting place, though in his opinion it lacked the beauty of Paris. The people were overall nice so far and the festive season made it a little less unsettling to have just been brought here so abruptly. The fact his best friend was here too helped as well and so did Raphael naturally sense of adventure. Sure there didn't seem to be much now but something was bound to happen.
For now, he was skating on the frozen fountain, Fondue trotting along on the edge happily. The coat the hospital had given him made staying out to enjoy the winter fun easy, as did already having a place to get out of the cold when they were ready. All in all, not a bad situation. He needed to think of some way to make money here, but the lady running the grocercy store near their chosen apartment was nice and offered to help them while he figured it out.
Companion Name: Fondue
Relationship to Character: Pet dog
Companion's Personality:
Fondue is a friendly dog who is easy to approach and seems to understand human speech well enough to react appropriately to it and situations involving humans, as well as understand slightly more complicated commands. He's a bit cowardly, but loyal and willing to follow his best friend into danger to support him however he can. He likes music and he loves to eat.
Companion's Abilities/Additional Notes:
Agility and good rhythm. Fondue can easily keep up with Raphael. But aside from that, he's just a dog.

[The screen blinks on to show Fondue. The dog is not doing anything remarkable, not even looking at the screen. He's watching his owner cook, paws on the counter and tail ticking back and forth like a metronome.]
