For Raphael, however, it marked the first time he owed his life to someone else. For the little girl, helping Raphael was only a simple deed motivated out of spite for the soldiers. There he met a little girl named Amy, who hid the weakened Raphael from his enemies. Raphael hid himself in an impoverished town to escape from his pursuers. Outraged by this, his own family cast him out, and even aided the town in the pursuit of Raphael. Unfortunately, Raphael was cast out one day when he made a critical mistake during the Evil Seed incident, he had killed a noble in self-defense: a noble that had long supported their family. His cool, unemotional demeanor created many enemies, but his quick and precise decision-making and execution skills solidified the foundation of his family amongst the nobles. Raphael, the young master of the Sorel family, grew up with the rapier and medicine as his playmates. Like D, Raphael is vampiric in nature and, as of Soulcalibur V, can be assumed to be a tormented figure. The reason for this is still unknown and might never be explained, but it can be surmised the widebrimmed hat is in reference to the Vampire Hunter D artwork done by Yoshitaka Amano. He also wears his bat ornaments upside down. The outfit he is wearing has a very similar silhouette to his Soulcalibur II costume with the addition of a black widebrimmed hat. His eyes remained red.Īs of Soulcalibur V, it appears he has not aged at all. In Soulcalibur IV, he wore a mostly black ensemble featuring a two-tailed high-collared coat with gold lining and an elaborate white frill decorating with a bat emblem on it, making him resemble Castlevania's Alucard. He then wore a green jacket with a collared cape, both which feature red inner workings and gold lining with an armor plate beneath. In Soulcalibur III, the influence of Soul Edge had changed his body to resemble something of a vampire, featuring paler skin and red coloured eyes, part of his hair swept up with another styled in a fringe that covers half his face, and a slightly more muscular build. Tied around his waist is a long red sash. In his first appearance, he wore an indigo jacket with black lining and red inner workings, matching gloves and black pants with red highlights. Raphael appears as a fairly young man of French noble descent, having blue eyes and shoulder length blonde hair.
