Something like that. He has become a vampire of sorts after his encounter with Soul Edge in Soul Calibur II. The wounds he was giving by Soul Edge Infected him.
(ps) and on the note of the whole "vampire" thing... since everybody seems to be ogling or bitching about it... honestly, Raphael coul be a fucking plumber for all I care. He'd still look like a badass.
I agree. I miss Raphael's Swashbuckler appearance, it was such a cool homage to those old heroes like the Count of Monte Cristo and the Three Musketeers. Now he's just another Vampire cliché. >=(
The whole vampire thing wouldn't have bothered me so much, it's just that he's being stuffed with every vampire reference imaginable to the point where he comes off as a charicature to anyone new to the game.
I do love Raphael, and nothing will change that. I just hate what Namco is doing to him.
Oh, and thanks for correcting me on Monte Cristo. It's been a while since I've read the book, so I'm ashamed about forgetting that little detail.

Ganth: I hate to break this to you but Raph is gayer than a tree full of monkeys on nitrous oxide, planted on a rainbow float in the San Francisco pride parade.
omg i still play this game to this day i love raphael he si the greatest character in the game... love his style and i love his weapons totally awesome 5 out of 5
I was wondering if there was a Raphael composition out there :) This was great, the music and the video have great synchronicity (is that how you spell it, LOL) Well done, although I would have liked to see a teeny-weeny itty-bitty bit more variety in the choice of attacks. Apart from that, it's brilliant! (5 stars :D)
I'm really impressed. The video quality is relatively nice which, I have to say, is rare for VGMVs. The music fits nicely with the interspersed FMVs and Combat sequences....it's fast enough to accomodate the latter, but has slow moments to accomodate the former. The french song shows you have a good grasp on what your working with. Of course...it helps that Raphael Sorel is a favorite of mine!
The words of the song fit Raphael so well... I like it! I already liked the song and I love Raphael, so it's great!

I dont mind the vampire thing but i still miss the old raph.
The Count of Monte Cristo was after 16th century, raph was there in the 16th but he pretty much was to reflect those old heroes.

Pretty much. Soul Edge corrupted him and stopped his aging. He is said to be 'weak by day' and have a strong thirst at night.

Btw, Amy is 12 yet, and Raphael about 32 Years old
Isn't it a bit too early for a marry between both? Except when Amy is 18 or later in SC IV
I mean, Raphael sees Amy as DAUGHTER, not as Girlfriend I guess...plz correct me if i'm wrong

no way Raphael not should marry Ivy!
