Props to Sev for the awesome pic of Raphael!
|Name|
Raphael Lesueur
|Age|
238 (appears 34)
|Physical Stature|
Raphael stands at an average height of 6'0". His semi-muscular body sports a very healthy tan, standing in contrast to his long, aqua blue hair, which nearly reaches the ground, and the deep pools of blue that are his eyes. He wears a matching light blue obi that he knots into a large, looping bow at the front of his shihakusho.
|Persona|
Raphael feels almost no emotions. He is incapable of love, fear or sorrow in any traditional sense. For this reason, he has turned to sadism. As a child, Raphael learned that he could feel a kind of pleasurable emotion while torturing small animals. In his adult life, his hunger for the pleasure became so strong that he had to consciously stop himself from killing other people. When he passes by someone, he feels the need to choke him or her. To Raphael, this is normal.
Though he would rather torture someone than talk to them, he is very capable of being social. In fact, keeping up this facade has allowed him to stay out of the Maggot's Nest. He smiles and laughs with his colleagues, and is able to put up an air of ease, but on the inside he wishes nothing more than to hear their screams.

|Biography|
Raphael Lesueur was born into a prominent East Second District family. The Lesueurs tried to rear Raphael to the best of their ability, but it was clear from a very early age that he was... different. The young boy would often come home covered in blood that was not his own, swearing that he had no memory of where it had come from.
After a few years, the Lesueurs denounced their teenage son and paid a low life to drug him and take him to an outer district, hoping he would either perish or be taken in by someone who could handle his murderous traits. Officially, Raphael Lesueur was kidnapped.
The kidnapping had been Raphael's plan all along, however. He knew enough of how the world worked to know that if he stayed too close to Seireitei, his unsavory tendencies would quickly be discovered. He needed to be somewhere where his behavior and skills could evolve unabated, which is why he paid the kidnapper to hint to his parents that some kids are too much to handle and that some parents hire people to take them off their hands.
He had no problem growing up on his own. Hunting was in his blood, and he quickly learned how to build shelters. Survival became a game.
Much later in life, the blue-haired man made his way back to his birthplace. He learned that both of his parents had been arrested in connection to his kidnapping by shinigamis. Raphael took over their home and wealth, which was rightfully his, and lived several years there until he could no longer control his urges. The high population made his cravings far worse, and he knew that he would end up somewhere unpleasant if he acted out. He came up with a plan to convince a shinigami to vouch for him so he could get into the Academy.
The Academy days were long and tedious. Raphael passed through the six years fairly unnoticed, but once he had graduated, there was only one position that he wanted to fill. With a bloodlust to match a Kenpachi, Raphael joined the division in which he could satiate his thirst for murder.
