==History==
===Early Life===
Raito Sonozaki was born the third child and only son of the Sonozaki Family. However 12 years ago, he had fatally fell into the true , but somehow revived as an avatar almost instantaneously. Since then, Raito spent most his life in a seclusive institute and his memories altered by his father Ryubei Sonozaki until the evening of Begins Night, where he was rescued by a hardboiled detective and his rookie partner and was given a new name, Philip, at the cost of the detective's life.
===Becoming Kamen Rider Double===
After the events of Begins Night while honoring his deceased savior, Philip assists Shotaro in the Narumi Detective Office to investigate the ongoing Dopant activity. With no recollection of his past life prior to his rescue, Philip spends his time in the Detective Office's secret hangar while keeping his location secret from the organization Shotaro rescued him from. In his free time, he reads about common topics that he finds interesting while helping Shotaro's cases by using his ability to access the , a collection of all of the information in the known world. But whenever in Shotaro's need during Dopant battles, Philip fights with Shotaro as the mind and soul of Kamen Rider Double, providing the Gaia Memories for Double's right side.
===Learning his Past===
With the addition of Akiko Narumi as the office's chief and every case solved with Shotaro, Philip begins to take steps forward in becoming human as his personality develops, giving him a strong love toward Futo City and his friends. His emotions begin surfacing upon meeting Satoshi Yamashiro, a neuroscientist abducted by the Museum organization who was responsible for Philip's memory loss; and Wakana Sonozaki, Futo's popular radio host whom he develops feelings for before realizing to be his elder sister. Upon meeting the two is when Philip discovers the truth of himself as part of the Sonozaki Family which reverts him back to his logical self seeing, seeing no hope in resisting a Gaia Memory's corruption given evident by the current devilish state of his family. This all changed in reversal during the "Gene Dopant" case per Akiko's persuasion which proved successful, making Philip became devoted to liberate his family from their memories' dark influence.
During the Old Dopant case with Philip taking over due to Shotaro's "aging down", Philip learns of Shroud's identity as his mother, Fumie Sonozaki, who was the true client of the Begins Night case and also Double and Accel's benefactor with their arsenal. Philip finally confronts his father, Ryubei Sonozaki during the "Evil Tail" matter, where Double finally breaks the Terror Memory, but was unable to rescue his father from the burning Sonozaki mansion.
===Abandoned U & Goodbye to the E===
After being thrown into the Gaia Memory for the Gaia Impact and extracted from Claydoll Xtreme, time was running out for Philip where his body became unstable to the point that should he transform into Kamen Rider Double again, he would break down into data and completely be absorbed by the planet. Saving their final transformation to save Wakana and fight the Utopia Dopant, Jun Kazu, Philip has Shotaro promise to him that he will still fight for Futo even if he is gone. After Kazu is defeated, Philip bids his final farewell to Shotaro as he fades away once the transformation is ended. Before he left, Philip left Shotaro a gift containing a Lostdriver belt and his blank book he used to access the Gaia Library with a parting message thanking Shotaro and asking him to continue to protect Futo.
A few days later, Wakana escapes police custody and eventually learns about Philip's sacrifice with remorse. With a final consolation from Shroud before her last breath, Wakana initiates her own Gaia Impact where she sacrifices her existence to restore the Xtreme Memory and Philip's physical body slowly in reconstitution for a year. After being revived, Philip has one last moment with his family who tell him that they will be watching over him within the Earth. He then spent the next year waiting for his body to be restored and watched over Shotaro within the Xtreme Memory. Upon returning to physical form, he continues to protect the city of Futo as Kamen Rider Double.

==Personality==
In his early childhood, Philip was an affectionate child, something he retained until losing his memories. His isolation from society further damaging his sense of empathy, Philip gradually became cold in nature, relying on logic to cope with his situation. From this, Philip had little tact in general; his attitude occasionally bordering onto unnecessary cruelty. 
Being extremely intelligent, he has a strong focus toward collecting information, regularly leaning toward an obsession. Once believing himself to have fully understood his topic of interest, Philip quickly discards his fascination and moves on, having no personal attachments whatsoever. His family and past are among the few things that can break Philip's cold demeanor, something he felt burdened with. 
By Futo Tantei, Philip has significantly matured as an individual, becoming more mindful of others. During the case of the Trash Dopant, Philip bonded with the Bayside Bad Boys&Girls members, spending time as their friend. Upon learning that one of them was the culprit, Philip felt genuine sadness in turn, recognizing the pain of ousting a loved one as a criminal. Regretful of how he treated Shotaro's grief in similar cases, Philip resolved to take matters into his own hands, seeing it as his sworn duty. 
When interacting with others, Philip often refers to them by their full name and/or status, barring Shotaro, Akiko, and the Sonozaki family.
==Powers==
*Gaia Library Access: Due to his status as the True Gaia Memory's avatar, Philip's focus and intelligence are comparable to a super computer. Having access to the Gaia Library, he can attain any recorded knowledge on Earth, appearing as though he possesses omniscience. Through use of Gaia Memories and/or Live Connectors, Philip can also connect with others in the Gaia Library, though only in special cases.
*Data Humanoid Body: Having been "reborn" as a data homunculi, Philip is immune to several powers by Dopants and can convert himself into pure data via the Xtreme Memory. While later recreated with a human body by WakanaMaverick d, Part 7/The Counterattack Fangs, Philip evidently still retains these powers, giving him an unshared edge in battle.
===Former Weaknesses===
*Family: Due to having no knowledge of his past, Philip will blank out and suffer a mental breakdown whenever somebody mentions the "F" word as it is the only word being unable to lookup. This lasted until the Money Dopant case, where he overcomes this mental block having recognized Shotaro and Akiko as the family he can call his own.
*Poor Stamina: Being confined most of the time in the hangar, Philip has little stamina compared to an average human being, though still capable of moderate exercise. Thus, whenever transforming into FangJoker, Philip's body is unable to sustain the transformation for extensive periods. Evidently though, this has become less of an issue overtime, with Shotaro and Philip prove capable of transforming into FangMetal and FangTrigger in Futo Tantei.
*Body Breakdown: Right after his body was retrieved from the True Gaia Memory, Philip's body began dissolving at a rapid pace, with any transformations into Double only hastening the process. After Wakana restored him through her "Gaia Impact", Philip's body stability was fully restored, allowing him to transform into a Kamen Rider without issue once more.
