The Archangel Raphael is one of the seven Archangels mentioned in Literature/TheBible, specifically in The Book of Tobit, (which many people do not consider {{canon}}). He is seen as a healer and guide, acting as an assistant to Death, as his Traveler persona, on some occasions. He is also seen in the Islamic faith as the trumpet blower for death, replacing {{Archangel Gabriel}}.

Along with ArchangelGabriel and ArchangelMichael, Raphael is one of the three ''arch''angels recognised by the Catholic Church.[[hottip:*:Michael is the only archangel named in Biblical books that everyone considers canon.]]



Raphael is associated with the element of water, and one of the most common images of him according to {{That Other Wiki}} is of him holding a water flask. As water is associated with healing and life, it is fitting that he is the patron saint of doctors. He's sometimes also associated with Air and is depicted with a bow-and-arrow.

He is the equivalent of {{The Medic}} in {{Real Life}} as he is not a love interest like the WhiteMagicianGirl.

* In the german RPG "Engel" (Angel) the archangel Raphael sends his angelic servants to heal the wounded and support the fight of the Angelitische Kirche against the demons send by the Lord of Flies. They have healing powers depending on their rank and age from healing minor wounds to regrow severed limbs and reviving the death. They discovered that it is possible to use their powers in reverse, enabling the most powerful of Raphaels Angels to turn their enemies to dust with a mere touch. And still the angels send by Gabriel refer to themselves as Deathangels...

* The Archangel Raphael is prominently ''missing'' from the ranks of Heaven in Steve Jackson Games' ''InNomine''. Canonically, Raphael (the Elohite Archangel of Knowledge) died in 1008 CE in the battle against Legion, the Demon Prince of Corruption. However, a sidebar in one of the supplements hints that there may be more to the story, that Raphael did ''not'' die outright but instead suffered the loss of all her Celestial forces to became a ''Remnant'' -- effectively a Corporeal "ghost" of a former angel -- and that the amnesiac Remnant became the Renaissance artist Raphael.
