He is prone to viewing them as little kids he has to take care of, which can cause his attitude towards them to be unintentionally patronizing. In turn, his brothers often expect him to handle many responsibilities and fix problems that they can't be bothered to deal with themselves, much to Raph's frustration. This creates a cycle where Raph wants his brothers to be more responsible and reliable while he also indirectly enables their attitudes through his caretaking behavior) History: (Raph began life as a juvenile turtle in Draxum's laboratory. Wishing to create a mutant army with formidable combat capabilities, Draxum used Lou Jitsu's DNA paired with his ooze to turn Raph from an ordinary turtle into a mutant. He and his brothers were then stolen from Draxum's laboratory by Lou Jitsu promptly after their mutation and Raph went on to be raised in the sewers of New York City alongside his brothers by Splinter. Eventually, Raph and his brothers met a human girl named April and forged a strong bond with her through the years.) Abilities: (Mystic Energy Manipulation: Raph wields mystic energy-generating tonfā. Often activated by striking the heads of his tonfā together, he can utilize their energy offensively and defensively in a variety of ways.) + (Energy Exoskeleton: Raph is capable of manifesting a mystic energy constructs in the shape of his body. He can alter the construct in its entirety to giant sizes and also independently alter the size of its appendages to take down physically large or exceptionally powerful opponents. He can add additional limbs to his construct as well) + (Power Smash Jutsu: The speed in which Raph can move his energetic fists is increased, allowing him to strike with immense swiftness alongside the mystic energy's innate magnified power.) + (Tonfā Power Jutsu: Raph can create giant fists to attack and grapple opponents with, powerful enough to create craters in surfaces. He can dictate the number of fists to generate and the length, creating a construct the full length of his arm or only up to his wrist.) + (Mystic Punch Jutsu: By enveloping his natural fists in mystic energy, the power behind Raph's strikes is significantly magnified.) + (Power Punch Jutsu: Raph can create a large fist from his mystic force-field, capable of extending it to great lengths.) + (Power Tickle Jutsu: After activating his tonfā, Raph can detach his energetic fists from his own body and manipulate them as additional limbs.) + (Stealth: As a practitioner of ninjutsu, Raph can slip in and out of areas undetected. These skills significantly improved after additional instruction in "The Ancient Art of Ninja Hide and Seek". However, Raph's stinks can jeopardize his ability to be covert as they can be detected by anyone.) + (Slow Motion Jutsu: By moving exceptionally slow, Raph's body movements are unable to be perceived by opponents, allowing him to execute very close range contact with opponents unnoticed.) + (Speed: Raph possesses a great amount of speed, capable of moving in bursts faster than the eye can follow.) + (Agility: Despite his size, Raph is quite agile, allowing him to successfully dodge attacks and perform sharp twists and flips.) + (Superhuman Strength: Raph possesses immense strength unparalleled by the average human and the other Mad Dogs, capable of launching six Evil League of Mutants members far into the air with ease using an ordinary ladder) Strategic Analysis: (Raph's position as Mad Dogs leader has allowed him to develop tactical thinking. Although devising plans doesn't come naturally to him, he has shown to be able to quickly improve originally ineffective plans and has acquired more caution when approaching potentially dangerous situations, preventing hasty missteps, as time has passed. Mind Raph: By verbally asking himself a question, Raph can summon a mental image of himself to aid him in problem solving. Both him and Mind Raph can physically interact with one another and Mind Raph retains Raph's personality and memories. Mind Raph seems to have autonomy as he can vanish at will and doesn't always react to stimuli as Raph reacts to it. He isn't beholden to appearing after a verbal question, also appearing when Raph merely intends to speak with him. However, Mind Raph can only assist one summoner at any given time as only one of him exists.) Ninjutsu: (Raph is skilled in basic ninjutsu, but due to Splinter’s (his father) initial reluctance to advance their training and the Turtles’ own lack of focus on learning the art, he and his brothers’ skills aren’t honed.) Hamato Ninpō: (As a member of the Hamato Clan, Raph is capable of tapping into his clan's energy to unleash his own mystic might.) + (Weapon Generation: Raph can use random objects to form weaponry, namely sai.) + (Self-Replication: Raph can manifest duplicates of himself at an undefined limit. Each clone shows no decrease in strength or speed. However, these clones are frail, and if damaged enough, will disappear, briefly leaving behind a red silhouette of where they first disappeared at before completely dissipating.) + (Ninja Mind Meld: Raph is capable of telepathically exchanging strategies with Leo, heightening team coordination.) + (Pheromone Generation: Raph involuntarily secretes various scents when stressed, referred to by his family as "stinks" as they often smell offensive. Each inducing situation has its own identifiable scent tied to it, such as his fear stink, amazement stink, victory stink, and sneaking-up-on-people stink.) + (Enhanced Durability: Raph’s body can sustain physical trauma that would be surely lethal for a human and severely injure the other Turtles. Compared to his brothers, his shell is especially tough, featuring three columns of dorsal ridges capable of cutting through material, such as Big Mama's silk [Big Mama: Raph initially felt quite warm towards Big Mama during their first encounter. encouraging his brothers to trust her and disagreeing with Leo's unwavering suspicion. However, Raph realized that he was wrong about Big Mama's intentions and she became his enemy after her betrayal where he unfortunately encountered her at her Battle Nexus via the Mud Dogs bringing him there and was quickly recognized by Big Mama where she then revealed his identity and ordered the Mud Dogs and Heinous Green to kill him.]) + (Skateboarding: Raph is a seasoned skateboarder and enjoys it as one of his hobbies.) Family: (Raphael's parent(s) + (Hamato Yoshi / Lou Jitsu / Splinter: Splinter is Raph's father. Raph has great affection for him and he trusts his father to help him during dire times, even more so than his brothers sometimes. Raph is typically the one who must bite the bullet and ask Splinter for things for him and his brothers. Out of his brothers, Raph knows the most about his father's life prior to parenthood and his film career, having witnessed one of the most formative memories of his childhood. However, he can be disappointed in his father's behavior at times, such as when Splinter refused to Raph and his brothers train in a way that wasn't just studying Lou Jitsu films "The Evil League of Mutants".) + (Baron Draxum: Draxum is Raph's father. Draxum was Raph's enemy throughout the first season and was naturally hostile towards him upon encountering him again in "Repairin' the Baron". He accompanied Draxum on Mikey's visit to Albearto Land, but found it difficult to see his potential for positive change. However, Raph became more hopeful after listening to Mikey's reasoning for his seemingly foolish faith in Draxum and chose to defend him alongside Mikey against his arrest ordered by the Council of Heads. Raph has come to accept him as a member of the family.) + (Leonardo: Raph and Leo typically get along, but sometimes they come into conflict over subjects ranging from wrestling to Raph's leadership skills. Even so, Raph is quite similar to Leo, both being fun-loving in character, though Raph knows when to dial this back while Leo is typically lighthearted through serious times and non-serious times alike, which can frustrate him. While Leo isn't always dependable, Raph trusts him to come through when necessary. Raph even sacrificed himself to save Leo from being captured by the Krang and Leo was the one who was able to bring Raph back after Raph was turned into a Krang zombie.) + (Donatello: Raph is conscious of Donnie's somewhat sensitive nature and as such is often reluctant to tell him off in lieu of hurting his feelings. He highly respects Donnie's intellect and creativity and trusts him to support the Mad Dogs. However, Raph can be irritated by his lack of focus on missions as Donnie is at times too busy entertaining himself and his propensity to cause additional problems for the family due to his faulty inventions.) + (Michelangelo: While Raph is protective of all of his family, he is even more so when it comes to Mikey. Raph is easily enraged when Mikey is demeaned or injured by others and while he believes in and respects Mikey's combat capabilities, his worry about his safety can hinder his progress as a ninja and as a maturing teenager. They are quite close to each other so it is common to see Mikey hanging on his back in various episodes.) + (April O'Neil: Raph deeply cares for April, shown to be willing to do things outside of his comfort zone to make her happy, such as trying to ensure she has a pleasant birthday by assisting villains in "Warren & Hypno, Sitting in a Tree". They can be competitive with one another and there seems to be an unspoken understanding between them as the two eldest Mad Dogs and they support one another thoroughly.) Other info: -Unlike previous incarnations of the Turtles, this version of Raph is both the eldest Turtle and the leader of the team as opposed to Leo. -Raph's weapon of choice is the tonfā instead of his usual weapon, the sai, using them during early events prior to breaking them. -One of Raph's catchphrases is "Like a boss". -Raph regularly speaks in the third person. -Raph regularly speaks in the third person. -according to Leo, Raph is also considered to be a "figure it out as he goes" type of leader. -Raph is all heart, all loyalty, all smash, but he's maybe not as strong with tactics -Raph is allergic to peanuts. -when Raph is on the phone with his brothers he speaks in a gentle, unintentionally patronizing voice. -Despite Raph's affection for animals, they usually fear or hate him, most likely due to his giant figure. -Raph wears a retainer headset with his pajamas. -lives in the sewers in New York with his four brothers and father. -Raph has a Brooklyn accent. -leader of the Mad Dawgs (there team name that consists Raph and his brothers).
