== Design ==
In contrast to Arsène, who resembles a Victorian gentleman, Raoul has a more modern and steampunk-inspired design. Its most apparent distinctions are the mechanical wings made of leather and metal, similar to bat wings. It is dressed in a vivid red jacket with golden trim, a white shirt paired with black-tie underneath, and a red fedora. It wears a black belt with a gold buckle, dark pants and thigh-high boots that are decorated with gold studs on the sides of its thighs. It wears white, fingerless gloves with gold-tipped claws at the end of its fingers. It is also equipped with long, bladed heels much like Arsène. Similarly, it has a demonic face with red eyes and holds a cigarette in its jagged mouth resembling sharp teeth or fangs.

Raoul is the third-tier Persona of Ren Amamiya only available through DLC. It is purchasable for 300 yen. In the English version, Raoul is bought alongside other DLC Persona in a bundle for $9.99. Raoul is the only Persona that is capable of learning the skill Phantom Show, which has a high chance of inflicting Sleep on all enemies.
When itemized through Electric Chair execution, Raoul will yield the Picaresque Hat accessory, which grants the wearer the Insta-Heal skill as well as +2 to all stats. During a Fusion alarm, he will instead yield the Picaresque Crown, which in addition to the Insta-Heal skill, will now grant the wearer +3 to all stats.

== Trivia ==
* Excluding the Picaro variants of existing Personas, such as Orpheus and Izanagi, Raoul is the first DLC Persona that was not present and introduced in prior games.
* Among the Picaro variants of DLC Personas in the files is an entry for "Neo Arsène Picaro", which corresponds with Raoul's entry in the non-Picaro section of the Persona list, implying that Raoul Picaro was considered before being cut.https://tcrf.net/Persona_5_Royal/Unused_Personas#Neo_Ars.C3.A8ne_Picaro
* After completing the game's third semester, Raoul's concept art can be bought in the Thieves Den.
* Despite being a third tier Persona (and supposedly more powerful than its predecessors), Raoul starts at a lower level than Satanael and has a weakness, while Satanael doesn't. This is in accordance with the other third-tier Personas of the party members, who all retain their weaknesses.
