🐢 Raph 🐢-[Tmnt 2k12]

Personality:   Personality: Just like other incarnations, Raphael is the muscular hothead of the ninja turtle quartet. However in this incarnation, Raph can be erratic emotionally. He is brave, daring, free spirited, and while Michelangelo is the comedian of the turtle quartet, Raphael is the most sardonic and sarcastic. He is very athletically adept. He is also very close with his allies, friends and pets. However, he can be very willful, stubborn, incredibly rude, and aggressive. He is also the most relentless of the turtles, his relentless ferocity makes him a deadly fighter. Raph loves to fight, wrestle, and trash the place. If there’s a brawl, Raphael would love to join in the fight whenever you like it or not. Because of his passion for fighting, he would fight first and reflect and ask questions later. He doesn’t tolerate offensive teasing from anyone. When people and or even his brothers mocks him, he would put up a fight. When Mikey is teasing him in his mischievous ways, Raph would either yell at him or beat him up playfully. Hypocritically, he mocks and taunts his family, allies, and his enemies, often coming up with rude remarks. Raph is not afraid to make light of very dark situations. He would make jokes about dejected and morose people who are miserable. On rare occasions, one of his brothers (especially Leo) or even his sensei may slap him in retaliation. Like his big sister, Miwa, he’s also very cocky and competitive. When he wins games and duels against his brothers, he will rub it in his brothers’ faces, much to their dismay. Raph can be unpredictable, and his ferocious temper can sometimes frighten enemies even his brothers. He can be very aggressive when trying to solve problems, even with his family and allies. Sometimes during training, Raph can get hostile, and he would do anything he can to beat his brothers in sparring matches. When he feels misunderstood or irritated, he would erupt at any given moment, occasionally "quitting” the team (more like walking out). This type of situation happened 27 times ("Mutant Gangland"), according to his younger brother Donatello. When he‘s calm, he goes back to rejoin the team. In addition to this incarnation, Raph and Leo’s relationship is a half-love/half-hate relationship. Raph hates the fact that Leo is chosen to be leader. Sometimes, Raph is willing to follow suit and cooperate with Leo, and other times, he’ll instigate. When Raph does instigate, he'll either talk back, get physical with him, or even try to take over as leader. In two episodes during this incarnation, Raph has successfully taken over Leo’s lead after Leo gives in (e.g. "New Girl in Town" and "Follow The Leader"). Raph’s rebellious behavior gets in the way of thinking before going into the situation. Sometimes Raph would go down and think before going into situations, and other times he will rebel. Because of his mood swings, his behavior is inconsistent. Sometimes when he actually think things through and tells brothers that they need a plan, it can surprise his brothers. Raph is only angry because he loves and cares for his brothers so much. Despite all this, Raph does have a soft side with his two pets Spike (which turned into Slash), and then in Season 4 Chompy, whom he adores both so much. His pets always calm him down. Sometimes, he shows his soft side to his family and friends. He would do anything to protect them, but he would never admit it in order to stay "hardcore" and to protect his pride. On some occasions, he even has a soft side towards Mikey, as seen in "New Friend, Old Enemy", "New Girl in Town". In "The Wrath of Tiger Claw", he even hugs Mikey, considering he is the youngest, and therefore his little brother. He becomes more softhearted after encountering Mona Lisa in "The Moons of Thalos 3" and especially after Splinter's death in "Requiem". Apparency: Raphael's character design was updated, giving him green eyes as well as a small, lightning shaped chip cut out of his plastron across his left shoulder. His shell shows distinct battle damage, and the tails of his mask are tattered and worn. On the new ninjaturtles.com, Raphael says that he usually uses his Sai as a pair of pizza forks. History: Fifteen years before "Rise of the Turtles, Part 1", Raphael and his brothers were once ordinary turtles; when they were infants the benevolent Hamato Yoshi purchased the four as pets. When their soon-to-be father walked passed a strange man, he felt something odd about him and followed. Unfortunately Yoshi gave away his position when he accidentally stepped on a brown rat's tail. The Kraang found him and attempted to kill him, but Yoshi fought back hard. During the scuffle, the aliens dropped a container of mutagen, Yoshi, having to have stepped on that rat, thus mutated into a humanoid brown rat by the name of "Splinter". While Raph and his brothers, after having been in contact with Yoshi and the clerk of the pet store where they were bought, mutated into humanoid turtles. Yoshi raised the turtles as his own children and to train them in Ninjutsu. Splinter knew they would never be accepted in society and with the Kraang hot on his trail, the five of them lived in an abandoned water tower and a warehouse avoiding detection. During all of these trials, Splinter and the Turtles bonded and after he noticed the baby turtles trying to copy his Ninjitsu training, Splinter decided that there was an opportunity to turn this new life he was thrust into to his advantage, Taking one of his favorite books about the Renaissance art named them after the Artists he admired the most.
