WHO ARE YOU ?

Raphael is NIS’ strategist and a loyal general, who often advises his friends on how to proceed. He is calm and rational, and a wise expert of strategy who is capable of seeing through most of his enemies’ ploys. Generally a general who is a cut above the rest with his superior talent and intellect, Raphael is praised as a hopeful candidate for leading NIS future, even though he’s still very young compared to the high-level officials in the team. His devotion to his crew and homeland is unquestionable, and his talents are praised with renown.
But boy, what did he do wrong in his previous life to be treated this way by world? He clearly didn’t work
so hard for 8 years to be one of the best officers in the organization—resulting to him to carry numbers of important missions, and also brings countless victory to the team—only to be deserted with no more humans to serve, let alone leading the National Intelligence Service. He was just thinking of taking a rest for one, one frickin evening, but whatsoever thing did this to his realm decided to prolong his break.
Honestly,
not that he complains about it. He always has a knack for adventures, for adrenaline rush journeys, and this, this my friend, is one that he shall never miss out.

Raphael steps forward to stand next to Chansung, staring far at the desert before them. "Honestly, when you were drunk last night, did you go around vomitting your dad jokes that everyone unanimously decided to leave the planet?"

HELLO MY NAME IS -
name Bae Yongwon
other names Raphael Bae
 
 + Rave ; his code name in the organization. Basically because he slurs like a drunken old man, and his tendency to deadpan whenever he's being (savagely) funny.
+ Don Won ; a pun of Don Juan, it rhymes (doesn’t it? fml) anyway, his homies a lot because he's earned himself considerable numbers of fangirls.
+ Yok-won ; he has the habit to cuss or talk in a very fast pace English whenever he's badly pissed. "Yok" means profanity in Korean.
+ Grandpa ; he spoke Korean like an old man since day one and courtesy to his training in London, somehow his way of speaking Korean has become heavily affected by the British accent, thus the slurry and lazy sounding speech.
 
birthdate + age Feb 14 +25
birthplace Daegu, SK
hometown Daegu, SK (0-17), London, UK (17-20), Seoul, SK (20-present)
occupation undercover Special Agent-in-Charge (SAC) of NIS (National Intelligence Service)
 
STRAIGHT OUTTA MAGAZINE
face claim Suga BTS
backup  GD / Lee Jonghyun CNBlue / Dean 

appearance 


His hair is raven black in color, not particularly silky nor smooth and it’s often left unstyled—more often than not his hair looks like a mess, good mess. He looks like a vampire, with skin so smooth, sharp jaw and natural pinky lips—though they are somehow darkened due to his smoking habit—with countenance that is almost always stoic. His piercing gaze is braced by pair of dark onyx orbs, just like the color of a deep night sky. And it is emphasized by the fact that he was born with natural resting b*tch face which looks pretty condescending, thus his colleagues often mistake him as an aloof and cocky person. His stature is not higher than the average, and his body looks frail with lean arms and legs which can rival female idols’. However, he actually has a firm posture for someone who’s not too tall for his age—thanks to years of training—and sort of domineering aura oozing around his body, part of it courtesy to—of course—his resting b*tch face. He doesn't have chocolate abs, but his abs are still there. He also has a small tattoo on his chest where the heart is: his parents' birthday date and initials 'BIVIIGHI'.

#ootd Being a man with a great sense of danger that he is, he never goes out of his crib wearing too flashy or extravagant attire and goes with simple but handy outfit instead. That evening when Chansung rang him up to chill with the other homies was not exceptional. He went out garbed in all black attire, complete with black leather jacket and black cap. Nobody would suspect him for a Secret Agent, right?
 
thrifting He doesn’t care about looking utterly good, just decent and proper is enough for him. And as long as it doesn’t cost him his flexibility and agility in moving about, he’s fine with anything, really.
HOW DO YOU DO, DO YOU LIKE ME TOO ?
  

personality  ISFP

"The work of their hands is usually more eloquent than anything they say."
"It is this type more than any of the others whose style it is to stand by another person (or plant or animal), with no intention to influence it, criticize it, or change it— perhaps not even to interact with it— only to be in its presence."


(+) unassuming, artsy, pacifist, thoughtful and caring, kindhearted, humanitarian
(o)
manipulative, quiet, action over words, lives in here and now, observant and perceptive, rebellious, skeptical, not trusting so easily but once he considers someone as "family" he will be an open book (therefore he tends to categorize his relationships with people), dislikes the spotlight and is a quiet supporter, avid for being unique and one of a kind
(-) appears distant and aloof, easily bored, tends to shut down if he’s bored or simply exhausted beyond anything, unpredictable, somewhat stubborn regarding his personal values

Raphael usually maintains a stern, serious, and distanced personality, but often loses his temper in a goofy and exaggerated comical style. It would seem however, that this anger is the only emotion that Raphael often feels comfortable showing. After all, he’s trained to be devoid of emotions in every occasion, or only show emotions whenever needed. Not to mention his habit of blurting out “jokes” without even trying to be funny—sarchotic, if I may say, “sarcastic borderline psychotic”. Even in moments that are particularly tough on the crew and would warrant sadness, Raphael chooses to maintain a quiet solemnity rather than outwardly express his emotions. He will be encouraging enough to his comrades and do something about it rather than dwelling in the misfortune too much. Despite this assertion, though, he cares deeply for his friends and wishes to protect them, that in spite of his preference for fighting without a motivation he can feel one coming on. He doesn't trust people so easily, and he tends to categorize people into some groups; such as "mere friends", "those who can work with me". "basically stay away from them but you don't have to be an about it so be nice anyway", "homies aka family". He only opens up to those he considers as family, though he is modest and respectful to everyone.

factoids 
+ He was told that his parents left him to orphanage due to financial issue. Henceforth he lived with the Bae-Karaugh's—Korean British pairing—as they adopted him at age 3. His step sister is Bae Robin Karaugh, who is younger than him by one year as they share the same birthday date. He earned the name "Raphael" from his foster parents.
+ As he graduated high school with noticeably high scores (in Math, social science subjects, English, and Korean literature), and was one of Top-Ten high-ranked students all over Daegu, it wasn’t hard for him to enter the NIS. He then was sent to London and received training from MI6 for 4 years before coming back to Seoul to serve in NIS.
+ He has outstanding combat skills, such as artillery proficiency and enhanced gunmanship, as well martial arts. He received 3rd rank black belt in 2014. + He always brings S&W Model 29 with him wherever he goes.
+ “Do you smell that? Who tf brought strawberry to the premise?” His nose is just so sensitive when it comes to Strawberry and its dairy products. He’s allergic to it as he feels nauseous and has the urge to vomit each time he smells the scent.
+ He aspires to be as awesome as Zoro Roronoa or One Punch Man.
+
He might not speak much but he brings a purse of sass wherever he goes so prepare to be savagely burnt.
+ Blurts out philosophical sentences in one too many occasions. His homies call him "Won Khalifa" each time he does so.
+ Can gobble down three boxes of large pizza by himself because why not.
+ He opposed the idea of going undercover as an aspiring indie artist for his current mission, moreover when his superior told him to follow the trend of vlogging as a disguise to freely take videos around the hood. “Do people even watch other people talking non-sense while doing almost nothing in their video?” he asked as he proceed to record their—he and his team’s—first vlog at the basement.
+ On a completely related topic, he’s good at playing the guitar.
+ The first thought that came up to his mind when he saw the deserted city was “Wow, everyone’s gone. This calls for dramatic measures. Do I blast Bohemian Rhapsody or Fantastic Baby because nothing brings people together like singing MAMAAA or YEOGI BUTEORA.”

for the presses 
+ *when he's shocked* "w-t-f" (he spells it in English)
+ “Well, sorry for the awful, mean, accurate things I said.”
+ *sarcastically or nicely good luck tryna figure it out* "Live long and prosper."
+ *whenever he sees Chansung’s comical shenanigans* “I’d pay with all of my fortunes to have whatever you’re having, kid.”
+ “Who t-f signed me up for this.” “oh hey this is fascinating!”
+ “On a scale of one to kicking Hitler out of art school, how bad is your idea?”
+ “Wanna see a real mannequin challenge? Watch me on my couch for 12 hours straight.”
+ “If I’ve learned anything from video games, it is that when you meet enemies, it means that you’re going in the right direction.”
PULLED FROM THE HISTORY BOOKS

background Safe to say that he came from an orphanage and his current family is very warm and encouraging and accepting for everything that he is. His father is a former rugby player from London, Riley Karaugh, his mother is a taekwondo instructor, Bae Hyojin, and his sister Bae Robin Karaugh is an aspiring detective. Though he's actually still searching for his biological parents' whereabouts. Anyway, not much story to tell about his family since he's been living technically alone since 17 and only comes home on national holidays. Moving onto his mission which he has been doing since the beginning of 2016. He's currently undercover and his cover is being a guitarist of an indie band, BTS which comprises five members including him. The other four members are his undercover partners: Kim Taehyung the drummer, Wang Jackson the bassist, Mark Tuan the keyboardist, and Jeon Jungkook the vocalist. Amongst the five, he's the leader of the team. He and his partners are currently in a watch to observe the prefecture to unveil the wrongdoing of a government member as he's reported to have been embezzling fund. He and the band lives at a basement of a club which is said to be the place where various illegal things take place. Up to this day, his band has gotten considerable amount of love and recognitionthanks to their hidden musical talents, good looks, and of course their vlogs which became viral after the third episode. Throughout the days they've been living and on a watch toghether, they've also gathered informations from the friends they've made during the course. Basically Raphael and gang became close to so many people whose workplace revolve around the club they live at. One of them is yours truly Lee Chansung whom they met in their second week being around—trust Lee Chansung to spill the tea in the most hilarious way possible because he never disappoints. Lee Chansung was the one who gave them tips and tricks on making an interesting and fun vlog.

on the day of.. So one evening, Lee Chansung rang him up inviting him to join Chansung and their other mutual friends. Because the other BTS members were either sleeping or going on a stroll, Raphael came alone to the basement thinking "why not, I could use some hours of refreshing". Though, being a SAC compels him to stay sober and alert, so while the others were indulging themselves in booze and games, he watched, observed and only joining the fun whenever needed—though he did drink a little. Fast forward to the moment where they played the Truth and Dare version of Spin The Bottle and came his time to spill the truth. He and the other SACs had been thinking about it for a while: that they would tell the bunch the truth about their identity. So he did on behalf of his team. The others only laughed it off saying they wouldn't believe him, all too tipsy to even take anything seriously. He didn't even bother to convince them and decided to just go with the flow. As one by one of the bunch surrendered to slumber, he started to feel utterly sleepy—perhaps it was the alcohol. He fell asleep thinking that evening was totally worth it, it was a stress-relief for him, tomorrow will come and another watch will begin.
Or not.
Imagine how flabbergasted he was when he woke up the earliest and went upstairs to pee, then saw the very unlikely sight before him after fulfilling his needs. He even had to rush down and wake up the others to ask if they put any drugs in his drink last night because he just saw a strange hallucination. Long story short, it was not even an inch close to hallucination.

"I did wish my watch would end soon, but not like this, man."
"Hey, Rave, what are we sup- What the heck, man, where did you get those from??!" Asks someone as he sees Raphael loading his handgun with bullets he brought in his bag, Raphael in his typical deadpan manner: "I found them scattered on the ground... I told you about it last night, dimwit."
VLOG ### : CHANSUNG + RAPHAEL BAE

[the camera fades in to show Raphael. muffled giggling is coming from behind the lens and the view is shaky for a bit before it steadies itself.]

"hey, hey, hey, Rave! what do you think of this whole situation?" Raphael stares into the camera for a while before shifting his gaze to look at Chansung, before gradually mirroring the younger man's broad grin. "Frankly? I think I haven't been this hyped up since my mission started." He breaks in a feeble chuckle. "Though, realistically speaking, it's havoc. It's fortunate that I'm stuck with you guys, out of all possible humans I could get tangled with, but I'm starting to get concerned as..." He gestures the camera. "We don't have much besides these cameras right here. I know all of you are good at what you do, but have any of you experienced real survival? No. That's what's worrying me the most. I want all of us to make it, no matter what. We're together from the start, we should be together when all of this ends.."

"do you...think we're gonna find anyone else?" He ponders the question, lips slightly pursed out of habit. "Hopefully." Gives the younger man a reassuring smile. "We should just keep trying, yeah?"

"i know this is, uh... kind of personal. but what about your family? do you think there's a possibility they might've survived?" A rueful smile rises onto his visage, longing in his eyes. "I do hope so. Father and Mother are athletic and smart, and I think my younger sister is clever and quick enough to sense danger." As his voice trails off, he musters up another reassuring smile, this time for himself. "And there are my biological parents, too. I want to believe they survived."

"i, uh..." he trails off for a bit before finally coming back to his question. "what do you think happened?" He hums as he ponders the question. "Many came to mind. Alien invasion being the most possible one. Though, I've seen the movie 'This is the End' and I'm not so sure anymore. Either way, we're here to find out."

"i'm sure you're super excited to be stuck with the other seven of us for who knows how long." you can practically hear him wiggling his eyebrows. "better start falling in love with us." A chuckle bubbles past his slightly darkened lips as he jests, one eyebrow up in amusement. "Haven't I been in love with you all enough to stick around for so long?"

"say, why doesn't anyone else vlog around here?" the camera shakes and he exhales loudly. "maybe you should try for a bit. it really helps." He stares at you incredulously as if you just said you wanted to go to Tibet and become a celibate monk for the rest of your life. "Normally, the other members and I vlog only to be able to gather information around without looking suspicious. It's written in our mission folder, somewhere in details section..." He pauses, his eyes slightly widened as realization dawns upon him. "Hey, I think we can vlog and make sure we capture everything around us in the camera. Who knows the information will be useful in our quest? Oh, Lee Chansung, you're quick."



"awesome as always, Rave!" a thumbs up comes into view. "thank you for your time. your compensation will be mailed to your house asap." ... "How about you cook something for me instead because hell hath no fury like me when I'm starved and knackered."

[a triumphant laugh. the camera shuts off.]
 
THE FORMULA FOR LOVE IS...
Raphael is a certified panromantic demiual with tendency to girls, which makes him unable to feel deep emotions for someone unless he's formed a deep bond with them. He doesn't have a particular ideal type, but someone who can work with him in lockstep. Someone who's survived a few long drops, and might know how to speak directly to his demons. Someone who is brave enough to not need one at all. Someone who, when he wraps his arms around her she will be his armor; she will make him feel the safest, and he will be a soldier ready for battle, even if he's a prisoner of war.
THE END
comments tiS THE THING I SCREECH FOR THIS KIND OF GENRE IS THE ENERGY PILL I NEED IN MY LIFE. THANK YOU FOR CREATING ONE, AUTHORNIM T u T (thumbs up)
questions I was wondering if he will suit the leader position because of his experience in the organization. And if it's ok to make him panromantic demiual? Since I tried to look for the detail about the preference but to no avail... I made him more into girls instead. But he's actually ok with dudes.

scene req's I'm down for comical scenes and scenes where he roasts everyone else but ends up getting burnt from the clapback.

put it back on BOHEMIAN RHAPSODY OR FANTASTIC BABY BECAUSE YESSSSS. Akeboshi - Wind. Or Flow! - Go. Or er For Pain. Or MCR - Summertime. Or Fall Out Boy - Alone Together. Or Reply 1988 - Don't Worry. Or Family of the Year - Hero.
