Raphael (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles)

Raphael was a humanoid turtle, and a member of the Teenage Mutant Ninja (or Hero) Turtles, distinguished by his red mask. He possessed a pair of sai daggers.

Biography
During Red Nose Day 1991, Raphael was with the rest of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles in their underground lair as Master Splinter told them that they needed to play a part in the charitable occasion. Splinter showed that he could turn his nose red, and when the turtles - including Raphael - questioned how they could do that, not even having green noses, Splinter reminded them that there was more to life than weapons and pizza.

Donatello misinterpreted this, asking for Raphael's sai daggers, and using them to slash at a pizza, splatting red sauce onto his fellow turtles' "noses", including Raphael's. After Michaelangelo licked off his "nose", Donatello remarked that they'd have to do it all again, with Raphael remarking that it was fun. (COMIC: )
