Rephael Swan 

An athletic cocky bum who thinks he's the shit.
Rephael Swan by You know April 9, 2003
The best person ever, absolutely fabulous and simply just amazing.
"Oh my gosh what's this feeling I'm having???"

"You mean pure happiness? That's probably because you just saw a Raphaella."
Raphaella by Witchgang December 9, 2019
A name; commonly given to those of overwhelming intelligence, indisputable potential, exceedingly high SAT scores.

Silent, skinny, and shy, yet braver, bolder, brasher than any mortal you could hope to meet, Raphaels approach life with a quiet, yet brazenly authoritative audacity, which is unfortunately often misinterpreted as arrogance.

A justified and righteous arrogance, but arrogance nonetheless.

However, Raphaels are still widely and wildly loved, for not only their large, dense, muscles and innate athleticism, but for their ability to influence through the humanities. Painting, piano-playing, essay writing, baking, animating, singing, movie making -- trades of which the talent of a Raphael is unmatched, unrivaled, unlimited.

Despite their artistic prowess, Raphaels are innovators at heart; programming virtuosos, lovers of not only the arts but of technology: painters who program, bakers who build.

To know Raphael is to know life.
"Raphael does everything!"

"I wish I were like Raphael..."

"Raphael can bench 846 pounds."

"Tony wishes he were Raphael."

Raphael by Bex September 12, 2017
A person who's life is fueled by his passion for something on which others often look down on- often a very special person or hobby, a Raphael sees the bright in everything and sees talent and beauty when it comes his way. He can put the most complicated emotional feelings to paper. Often made fun of because his endless forgiveness, he will always forgive you if he knows you are being honest. He will never judge you and will always treat people he doesn't know with the greatest respect imaginable. If you are close to a person like this, you will never be able to let them go. Any person he dates will always love him no matter what. But hurt this person too much, you will learn the the forgiveness is not endless anymore and once you cross that line, you will regret it forever. Ask for forgiveness though, and he will probably forgive you. People like this are rare.
wow, look at him, he is the only one being nice to the biggest idiot of the school, how does he do it?
-I don't know, he must be a Raphael.

I just met this guy and we had the most interesting conversation I've had in years. I feel like my soul has been refreshed and my outlook on life revived.

-I know who you were talking to... it was a Raphael!

murderhobo 

In a tabletop game, a murderhobo is a player who murders NPCs indiscriminately. This is normally derogatory, referring to a player who totally ignores quests, dialog, backstory, trade, world building etc.

The term is most common with Dungeons and Dragons, but it can be applied to most RPGs where the player is allowed to kill most quest-giving NPCs and NPC traders. E.g. Elder Scrolls, Fallout, Divinity original sin.
