Head purchased from celticgeekess.

Reason for choice:

I had wanted a Cristal boy since the first release, but hadn't found an excuse. I rewrote a character to make him fit when a head came my way.

Best Points:

His profile.

Worst Points:

Wigs don't fit his head shape very well.
The elbow and hip joints do not have very fluid articulation.

Volks SDGou Yukinojo default

Muted earth tones.

male

Offsite roleplay:

This doll's character is not available for offsite roleplay.

Raphael is the son of Tyrian, but was raised apart from the rest of the Harding family, who had no idea he existed. Strange things started happening around him during college and he worried that he was losing his mind. He tracked down the only relative he knew of, his cousin Idris, to find out if there was any history of mental illness in his family. He got way more than he bargained for.

With old face-up done by me.
