Bio: Very similar to his non-anthro bio in that, he is from the streets and he is an orphan. He was born to Zeus(father) and Eva(mother), both loving parents. Before living on the streets, he lived with his parents and baby sister Yokoshino at their home pretty much in the projects. His mother was a teacher(despite being ill with cancer) and his dad was a police officer, who previously was a Navy Seal. It was his father who taught him firearms and various combat/survival techniques(such as kickboxing and grappling, among others), as it was his hopes that his son would get out of the projects and have a better life as either police or armed forces while protecting his sister. They often struggled to get by, but had some great times while they lived together nevertheless.
However, after his mother had to retire from her job due to becoming extremely ill at this point, they reluctantly sent baby Yoko to live with her aunt and uncle in Japan when she was 3 years old(raiden himself was 8 at the time). Also during this time, he and Marcus met and became best friends, I guess you could say. One day, when Raiden was 10 years old, his mother died of cancer. It was very hard on him and his dad but after a while they pressed on. After this, Raiden and Marcus's friendship dissolved for some unknown reason(see Marcus's bio why). A few years later, during a shootout with bank robbers, Raiden's dad was shot and killed. He had found out about it while walking home from school. When he had come onto the scene, he found his father laying in pool of blood, barely alive. They shared their final goodbyes at this point before his father finally died. By this point, Raiden totally stricken with grief, now having lost the two people he loved most. With no one to take care of the house or him, he packed up what he could and lived on the streets. After a few years of living on the streets, his aunt Jill(a psychologist) and uncle Kyoshiro(whom is also a police officer and former Marine Special Ops) found him while they were out one day back from their stay in Japan. Fortunately, he was surviving and alive. They took him back to their home in the slightly nicer part of the town‘s middle class district where he was also reunited with his long lost sister who is now 12. He's lived with them ever since and they are just as caring as his parents were. It was this part of town where he met Sonya and the others as well. Because of the care of his friends and family, he is moving on with his life each day.
Voice Actor: Rueben Langdon, formerly Bruce Campbell(however, his voice actor does return as Bruce Campbell once he's around 40 years old and on up)
Singing Voice: Varies. Sometimes he sounds like Jon Bon Jovi(lighter/softer songs) all the way to Lemmy Kilmister from Motorhead(heavier songs).

Thunderstruck by AC/DC(Main Theme)
It’s My Life by Jon Bon Jovi
Ride The Lightning by Metallica(Battle Theme)
