General knowledge: The angry and hotheaded one, the loner, the rebel, the troublemaker, fights with Leo, the most brutal and most likely to kill, vengeful, sarcastic, protective, passionate, has sais as his weapons.

He's the one of the four who's most aware of the fact that they are unique in the world. He hates more than the others the fact that they are different and have to hide, and he can't forget it. He plunges into action head first, without thinking twice, and that is mainly why he and Leo fight. It's just his nature to be like he is, and no one can change that, except maybe mellow him out a little.
Raphael has trouble expressing/showing his feelings, other than anger, and has only done so properly to Master Splinter and maybe Mikey. Mikey understands him a little more than the others, they both know what fun is. Raphael really just needs to be loved. He's not mean or anything, just misunderstood.
But he is very passionate about the things he does.
He's also very protective of the people he loves, and he would gladly sacrifice himself for them.
His interests besides ticking Leo off, is working out, listening to death metal and watching movies.
Oh, and there's that big, black bike that keeps popping up everywhere...

What I think: I like Raph. If you think about it, he's really just human. <G> He acts like we all do sometimes, being pissed off at everything and everyone. And his sarcasm can be just as fun as Mikey's jokes.
Heh, although he may behave that way a little more often than we do.
When Raph does express his true feelings, you just melt, it's so touching. He's definitely the one of them with the highest sex appeal, being the rebel, among other things.
He also hits your maternal instinct, you want to take care of him and comfort him, you feel so sorry for him at times. The drawback is that he most likely won't let you. I don't think it's strange that he's the one who's had a girl friend, though, (Ninjara in the archie comic) and most frequently has in all the fanfics. Like with Leo, you would feel really special if you managed to get through "the wall".
But I, however, with my fairly rickety psyche, probably wouldn't be able to handle his humoungus moodswings. "Geez, somebody give this guy a bag o' sugar, will ya?"  ;P
I would of course give it an honorable attempt first-- try to cheer him up. But one can only be understanding for so long, right?
