Official History:

Raphael is one of the seven Archangels and lives in Yetzirah, the fifth level of Heaven. He holds the title of Great Virtues, which is the fifth of the nine choirs of angels. His abilities to heal are second to none, and he has the gift of resuscitation, he is the only one in all of Heaven and Hell who can successfully resurrect a dead corpse. Demons are able to reanimate, but it is not true resurrection. He is also one of the four Elemental Angels, and thus has the power to control wind. Raphael only appears in the Angel Sanctuary manga.

A neutral character through most of the manga, he abides by Sevotharte’s orders, but also helps Sara when she awakens in Jibrille’s body after Metatron pulls the needle out of her neck. As her only ally in Heaven, Jibrille/Sara puts her faith in Raphael, nicknaming him Raphi-kun, and he helps her when he can. He cures her blindness and resurrects the body of the Messiah, Mudou Setsuna, when he, Jibrille and Mikael are lured to Assiah by Katou and Uriel.

When Sevotharte kidnaps his assistant Barbiel, he can think of nothing but her safety, and therefore will do anything Sevotharte asks of him, even if it means to betray Jibrille/Sara by giving her a serum to seal her voice during her trial. Barbiel however, escapes from her prison and Raphael makes the decision to defy Sevotharte. He enters the courthouse and walks up to Jibrille, kissing her and healing her voice in the process. He shows the pictures of the needle wound that had been in the back of Jibrille’s neck, and holds her hand, giving her the courage to speak out against Sevotharte.

He suddenly finds himself in love with Sara, and resurrects her body as well, letting her stay in his house. Though, his love is unrequited because of her love for Setsuna, so instead he decides to aid the Messiah and protect Sara while Setsuna and his comrades journey to Etemenanki after Rosiel.


Personality:

Raphael is a playboy, and quite promiscuous, though he wasn’t always that way. A scandal with Belial long ago changed his personality to what it is now. Angels are forbidden to feel any other emotion other than praise to the Creator, and are branded fallen if they are discovered. He really could care less about being caught, since he’s slept around so much. He is laid back and relaxed, but not lazy.


Special Abilities: As the Angel of Wind, he can freely manipulate the air around him. He is also able to heal any type of wound, and resurrect the dead.

Weaknesses: Overuse of his power.
