Nickname
Raphael is known by a few names. These names include; Gambit, Mercutio, and The Prestige.

Age
Raphael is 19 years old.

Role
Team 2: Mentee

Personality
Raphael's personality is most of the time rather simple; he is normally quiet and nondescript. He is also very calculating, making sure that his actions have the greatest rewards with little to no risk. Because of his nature and calculating personality Raphael is a professional gambler. Even though Raphael is a reserve calculating person, when it comes to his temper he has a very short fuse. When things don't go his way or his calculations are wrong his temper will flare up, causing him to act rash and recklessly. Raphael's temper is one of the major flaws in his almost flawless reserved personality, something which irks him. He believes that if he did not have his temper his calculations would be perfect, every time. Unbeknownst to him though his temper keeps him from becoming a cold person, his temper keeps his emotions in check. If he weren't to have a temper his calculations would not consider the lives of others. This is one reason why Raphael's temper is something which keeps him, and others around him, alive.

Weapons
Raphael is not a fan of weapons, believing them to be unnecessary for the most part. He however is not beyond the use of such items but would rather use his own creations. Raphael has invented several weapons which he carries at most times, but are rather harmless unless activated. These weapons include;
Shock Gloves v3.0: Raphael wears two gloves at all time, these gloves contain metal knuckles and Raphael's own technology which causes the gloves to produce electricity. The gloves, when activated, produces electricity which can shock and cause paralysis, and even knock out if enough power is used, those whom are touched by it. It has also on occasion produced an arc of electricity which will shock those whom are targeted. The glove is activated when he activates the power source. Raphael carries several power sources in the very unexpected case that the batteries runs out. The gloves are not fully completed and will at times malfunction, Raphael is editing his gloves whenever he finds the time.
Combat Knives: Raphael carries two combat knives with 1ft long blades. He uses these when his gloves malfunction or in the case where they would be more effective. He dislikes using them thinking that they are so primitive.


Weaknesses
Raphael has few weaknesses, but he has noticeable ones. His weaknesses include;
Over Calculation: His calculative nature can sometimes take the better of him as he overlooks simple means at times. He can also overestimate his opponents making him believe he is inferrior, when at most times he will swiftly defeat them, something he himself doesn't truly understand why.
Muscularity: Although he is tall Raphael is not a very strong person and can be physically overwhelmed when it comes to strength.
Attitude: Raphael is competitive in nature but finds most things troublesome and will choose rather to not bother. This can be overcome by others forcing him and being motivated by things such as money, gain, or pride.
Pride: One of the most deadliest of sins and one of his greatest thorns is Raphael's pride. He won't let anyone talk badly of himself or his family and friends. His family is of royal descent, something which Raphael also takes much pride in, wearing a crown at most times. His pride makes him act irrationally at times.
Temper: Raphael has a short fuse and a quicker temper. When frustrated he acts reckless and his calculations can become miscalculated.


Skills
Raphael is very skillful. His skills include;
Inventor: Coupled with his genius intelligence Raphael is capable of creating items of advanced technology. His most notable inventions are his combat gloves, The Shock Gloves v3.0.
Martial expert: Although he resents violence Raphael is more then capable when it comes to fighting. He is highly skilled in hand to hand combat, self taught. Used in conjunction with his Shock Gloves v3.0 he is a threat when fought at hand to hand combat. Raphael also has very skillful with bladed weapons, he however despises using bladed weapons.
Calculation/Gambling: His genius intelligence has also made him an expert of calculating, this has also helped him with gambling. He uses his calculative skills almost at all times.
Speed and Dexterity: Raphael is incredible fast and dexterous. Capable of many feats which require immense speed and dexterity.
Endurance: Despite his lack of strength Raphael has amazing endurance. Was developed after running away from people angry about losing their money to him when he gambles.


Fears
Raphael has few fears. His fears include;
Fear of Imprisonment: Raphael fears being captured and caged. He loves his freedom and will do anything to maintain it.
Fear of Death: Raphael fears death, but not for himself. He fears that all his friends and family will die and he will be unable to stop it from happening.
Fear of Fear: Raphael fears that he will be overcome by his fears. He fears that his fear will stop him from completing what he believes must be done.


Horseshoes and Handgrenades
I'm not fucking around
I think I'm coming out
All the deceivers and cheaters
I've think we've got a bleeder right now
Want you to slap me around
Want you to knock me out
Well, you missed me kissed me
Now you better kick me down

Maybe you're the runner up
But the first one to lose the race
Almost only really counts in
Horseshoes and hand grenades

I'm gonna burn it all down
I'm gonna rip it out
Well, everything that you employ
Was meant for me to destroy
To the ground now
So don't you fuck me around
Because I'll shoot you down
I'm gonna drink, fight and fuck
And pushing my luck
All the time now

Maybe you're the runner up
But the first one to lose the race
Almost only really counts in
Horseshoes and hand grenades

Demolition, self-destruction
What to annihilate
The age-old contradiction
Demolition, self-destruction
What to annihilate
This old age

I'm not fucking around
I think I'm coming out
I'm a hater
A traitor
In a pair of Chuck Taylors
Right now
I'm not fucking around

G-L-O-R-I-A [x4]

So begins...
