For the character fromTearRing Saga known as Raphael in some fan translations, seeSaga:Loffaru.

Raphael Kirsten (pronounced /⁠ˌɹafaɪˈɛl 'kɝstɪn⁠/^[key]; Japanese:ラファエルRaphael) is a character appearing inFire Emblem: Three Houses. He is a student at the Officers Academy and a member of theGolden Deer.

Biography

Raphael is the son of a family of merchants from theLeicester Alliance, and an old friend ofIgnatz. In Imperial Year 1177, his parents passed away in an unfortunate accident involving monsters, which is speculated to have been caused by Count Gloucester in an attempt to weaken Duke Riegan's influence in the Alliance. After this, Raphael and with his sister went to live with his grandparents. In 1180, he enrolls in the Officers Academy at theGarreg Mach Monastery and joins theGolden Deer, studying and fighting alongside them.

After the timeskip, if Raphael is a member ofByleth's class, he returns to Garreg Mach on the day of the millennium festival and accompanies them throughout the war. If not recruited, on the Azure Moon route he remains withClaude and fights alongside him in the Battle at Gronder on Leicester's side, where he can be circumvented or slain at the player's discretion. Raphael makes no appearances in the story on the Crimson Flower and Silver Snow routes; in the latter's case, he is most likely one of the many casualties of the Battle at Gronder.

Analysis

Raphael is a physically-oriented unit and is overall fairly average. Raphael's growths are very lopsided, focusing primarily onstrength,defense, andHP at the expense of having the lowest growths inmagic,resistance, andspeed in the game. Out of all students, aside from thelords, Raphael has the highest strength and HP bases accompanied by a decentdefense base ensuring that Raphael deals good damage withgauntlets and theirbrave effect and tanks fairly well on the enemy phase provided he does not getdoubled. As the game progresses, Raphael will prove to be offensively proficient provided he keeps using gauntlets; however, he will also severely fall behind in speed and his charm will be similarly handicapped, both of which limit his tanking potential by opening him to getting doubled by the enemy and getting inflicted with therattled status inflicted when hit by an enemy gambit. Potentially getting doubled by all enemies is a huge weakness for Raphael and leaves him somewhat vulnerable on the frontlines. While Raphael's speed will be sufficient with lightweight equipment on lower difficulties in Part I, come Part II, most all enemies, save for enemyFortress Knights will be able to exploit his low speed. This weakness is magnified on maddening where enemies become so strong they will easily be able to dispatch him in two rounds of combat, one if the enemy attacks with magic. Raphael desperately needsQuick Riposte, which guarantees he doubles on the enemy phase while preventing the enemy from doing so, to bolster his general survivability, though since the skill is obtained by mastering theWar Master class, it will likely be obtained very late into the game, so until then Raphael can be surprisingly fragile without heavy investment into his defenses. Moreover, Raphael's personal skill ofGoody Basket has a lot of missed potential providing Raphael little to no unique benefit. First of all, Goody Basket is very unreliable as it procs off of Raphael'sluck and generally only heals 3-7 HP; second, the skill is far outclassed byvulneraries and the B-rank gauntletcombat art ofHealing Focus; and lastly, since the skill randomly procs, it can knock Raphael out of the ideal HP range for skills likeVantage orDefiant Crit. In all other situations, the skill is at worst irrelevant.

Since Raphael has the worst magical growths in the game he is best off promoting into physically-oriented classes; however, Raphael's best promotion path varies according to what kind of performance the player wants from him. Since Raphael will rarely if ever double the enemy naturally, his highest offensive potential lies in maximizing his damage output with gauntlets; therefore if you want Raphael to be offensive, his promotion path should beFighter toBrigand—master the class forDeath Blow—toGrappler then to War Master to obtain Quick Riposte. It should be noted that after obtaining Quick Riposte, both Grappler and War Master are suitable options for Raphael's final class as each hasFistfaire and their own unique strengths. Grappler has the uniqueFierce Iron Fist combat art which hits three times simultaneously while War Master has a better class modifier in strength and a generalCrit +20. If the player wants to give him more speed and skill sooner, they can make Raphael aBrawler to give him a 10% increase to his growths in speed and skill. Although it is not guaranteed to give many points, it can help him reach Grappler sooner with the two extra brawling experience points. Alternatively you could fully invest into Raphael's defense and HP by promoting him to anArmored Knight then a Fortress Knight. Bear in mind that even if you plan to follow this path, Death Blow is still recommended as armored classes can still use gauntlets. Moreover, Quick Riposte is also recommended as preventing the enemy from doubling him will only bolster his ability to tank multiple enemies and deal out decent damage on the enemy phase. It is also worth noting that Raphael can promote into aWyvern Lord. The class still has great offenses and the upgrade to base 20 speed, 24 with the class modifier, will prove sufficient on lower difficulties to prevent many enemies from doubling Raphael, though this does come at the cost of not being able to use gauntlets withoutdismounting, not being able to equip guardadjutants, and limiting Raphael to flyingbattalions.

Recruiting for Other Routes

When recruited outside of theGolden Deer house, Raphael will come with training in gauntlets andaxes. Raphael coming with training that puts him on the path to War Master is beneficial and him becoming aBrawler offers you a guardadjutant immediately upon recruitment; however, Raphael's recruitment requirements are not ideal. TrainingByleth's armor rank to specifically recruit Raphael is suboptimal as Byleth performs better in just about any class besides fortress knight. Moreover, Raphael'sparalogue does not offer any attractive or unique rewards for clearing it. As usual, attaining a B-rank support between Raphael and Byleth will make Raphael eventually request to join Byleth's class on his own, though it bears consideration as to whether or not you want to pour so much effort into raising Raphael's support to B-rank during exploration when there are many other students who make better contributions to your team. It is also worth noting that if you're a Blue Lion and wish to recruit everyone, he shares his armor requirement withFerdinand, who cannot have said requirement lowered through supports; therefore, supporting Raphael becomes a lower priority since you will still have to get that C armor for Ferdinand.

Endings

Raphael, Beast of Leicester (single ending)
Raphael returned to his hometown to serve his liege lord as a knight. After years of loyal service, he resigned his duty to devote his attention to the inn that his grandfather and sister had opened during his time away. Eventually he became the inn's proprietor and developed a reputation for astonishingly good cooking.

Byleth, Wandering Flame/Ruler of Dawn & Raphael Beast of Leicester (Silver Snow, Verdant Wind)
Byleth announced her marriage to Raphael shortly after becoming leader of the United Kingdom of Fódlan. As a knight in the new order of royal guards, Raphael helped to restore order and stability to the nation during its fragile rebuilding period. It is said that the kindness and undying support of the queen and her husband helped to put the minds of the people at ease. The couple was long remembered, even after they stepped back from the public eye, thanks to portraits painted by the court's renowned artist: Raphael's sister, Maya.

Byleth, Guardian of Order & Raphael, Beast of Leicester (Azure Moon)
Byleth announced her marriage to Raphael shortly after being named archbishop of the Church of Seiros. As the archbishop's spouse and a member of the reformed Knights of Seiros, Raphael helped to ease the suffering and damage caused by the war. It is said that the great affection between the archbishop and her husband never failed to put the minds of the people at ease. The couple was long remembered, even after they stepped back from the public eye, thanks to portraits painted by a renowned artist: Raphael's sister, Maya.

Byleth, Wings of the Hegemon & Raphael, Beast of Leicester (Crimson Flower)
Byleth and Raphael celebrated their marriage with a small but lively wedding. Almost immediately afterward, the battle with those who slither in the dark began in earnest, and Raphael devoted himself wholly to his wife's protection until the chaos of war was finally quelled. It is said the great affection between the two was viewed by many as a symbol of the new era of peace that followed. They were long remembered, even after they stepped back from the public eye, thanks to portraits painted by Raphael's sister, Maya.

Bernadetta, Eternal Loner & Raphael, Beast of Leicester
When Bernadetta first inherited control of House Varley, she hid away and would not dare involve herself in political or administrative affairs. During this time it was Raphael who came to her aid, encouraging her to work through her fear of people. The training period was difficult—"humiliating," according to the journals Bernadetta left behind—but in the end, it had its desired effect. The leader of House Varley became an outgoing and authoritative individual, taking part in public policy. She even took on a very muscular husband.

Ingrid, Stalwart Knight & Raphael, Beast of Leicester (Silver Snow, Verdant Wind, Crimson Flower)
When Galatea territory was seized, Ingrid argued strongly for the preservation of its borders. Her request was granted, and she was appointed to rule. Soon after, Raphael traveled there to pledge his service to Ingrid. He initially signed on as a knight, but quickly discovered that his services were even more desperately needed by the land's farmers, and instead focused his efforts on helping Galatea improve its agriculture. Seeing him work side by side with the commonfolk, Ingrid became enamored with Raphael's character, and eventually asked for his hand in marriage. They held a modest but lively wedding, and the people happily gave their blessing to the union.

Ingrid, Stalwart Knight & Raphael, Beast of Leicester (Azure Moon)
Raphael returned to his home town to serve his liege lord as a knight, and spent his spare time helping out at the inn that his grandfather and sister had opened during his time away. One day, Ingrid, who had abandoned her claim to House Galatea to serve as a knight to the royal family, arrived to persuade Raphael to join her. It did not take much convincing. From that day forward, they served together as partners, fighting together side by side to make their mark on the history of Faerghus.

Raphael, Beast of Leicester & Ignatz, Worldly Artist
Raphael returned to his hometown to serve his liege lord as a knight, and spent his spare time helping out at the inn that his family had opened during his time away. He was compelled to give up knighthood and manage the inn full-time, however, when his sister Maya suddenly declared her ambition to become an artist and vanished. Years later, when she finally returned, she did so in the company of another artist: her husband, Ignatz. With cheerful support from Raphael's family, Ignatz and his wife rose to prominence and, with their unique style, set the artistic paradigm in Fódlan for a generation.

Raphael, Beast of Leicester & Lysithea, Scholar of Misfortune
Raphael returned to his hometown to serve his liege lord as a knight, and spent his spare time helping out at the inn that his family had opened during his time away. Due to his grandfather's age, he was compelled before long to give up knighthood and manage the inn full-time. Soon after that, the inn began to be frequented by Lysithea and her family, who had renounced all claim to nobility and begun a life as commoners. Lysithea found a kindred spirit in Raphael's sister, Maya, and before long, found herself helping out around the place too. Eventually she was put in charge of the kitchen, where it is said she spent the rest of her days happily working.

Raphael, Beast of Leicester & Marianne, Survivor of the Curse
Raphael returned to his hometown, where he served his liege lord as a knight for a time. Later, he gave it up to pursue his true passion of food by opening up an inn. He got the idea to install a bird feeder outside the place, calling it The Winged Inn & Tavern, and before long, the site began to attract the prettiest birds in the region. Soon after that, Marianne made her first visit, and she and Raphael enjoyed a happy reunion. Seeing her gift in talking to the birds, he invited her to stay. Marianne eventually became known as the woman whose talent for handling animals helped an inn to flourish.

Raphael, Beast of Leicester & Hilda, Free Spirit
Raphael returned to his hometown, where he served his liege lord as a knight for a time. Later, he gave it up to help manage the inn that his family had opened up during his time away. One day, to the great joy of Raphael's sister, Maya, Hilda came to visit. Maya had always treasured the necklace Hilda had made for her. Moved by this, Hilda gave Maya a new gift of a hair band, which inspired Maya to suggest that Raphael convert the inn into an accessory shop. Hilda decided to stay and help out, and eventually became the shop's proprietor and chief artisan. She moved in with Raphael, and the two spent their lives happily dealing in fashionable accessories.

Raphael, Beast of Leicester & Leonie, The Blade Breaker II
Leonie took over the mercenary company formerly led by Jeralt. She ran out of money constantly, however, due to sending all of her earnings back to her village, and so developed a reputation for unpaid tavern tabs. When she came upon the inn that Raphael had been helping to run with his family, she was overjoyed to finally find a place that would trust her enough to open a new tab. In her years frequenting the establishment, she accrued such a massive debt to Raphael that the only way to pay him off was to work for him. By the time the debt was finally paid, she had moved in with him. They lived together happily for the rest of their days.

Raphael, Beast of Leicester & Flayn, Slumbering Princess
Raphael returned to his hometown, where he served his liege lord as a knight for a time. Later, he gave it up to help manage the inn that his family had opened up during his time away. Away from the battlefield and able to eat as much as he pleased, he eventually began to grow soft. It was around that time that Flayn, who had also neglected her training, came to visit. The two helped motivate one another, and together they embarked on a new exercise routine. Thereafter, it is said that their energetic shouts and cries of exertion could be heard throughout the village at any time of day.

Raphael, Beast of Leicester & Shamir, Distant Archer
Shortly after the war, Shamir gave up the mercenary life and disappeared. Raphael searched for her unsuccessfully for a time, but then gave up and returned home to serve his liege lord as a knight. One day, he was given orders to drive off a group of bandits, but upon investigation, he discovered that all of the bandits' victims were those who lined their pockets by preying upon the innocent. Without warning, Raphael resigned his post, said good-bye to his family, and vanished forever. It is unclear just where he went, but rumors swirled for years of a master archer and a hulking giant who spent their lives as highway robbers, shaking down those who made victims of others.
