Tobias Hankel

Raphael is a serial killer the BAU is called to investigate in Atlanta, Georgia.

Background
Tobias Hankel grew up with an abusive father, Charles, who quoted Biblical scripture and used the Bible as a punishment guide. Samuel once branded Tobias with a red hot poker as punishment for not following "The Path of the Lord". On another occasion, he "Baptized" Tobias by nearly drowning him in the tub.

In the present, Tobias works as a computer tech support operator. He is a drug addict who attends Narcotics Anonymous meetings on a regular basis.

Season 2
In "The Big Game", it is revealed that Tobias suffers from Multiple Personality Disorder. He is often heard arguing with himself on whether or not his deeds are "The Lord's Work". It appears that he has taken on the personality of his father as his alter-ego. It is, apparently, the personality of his father that is killing the victims.

Tobias kills a couple in their home, kidnaps another woman (killing her "handyman"), and manages to kidnap Reid.

In Revelations, Tobias is shown injecting drugs into Reid, while three women are tied up in the barn at Tobias' farm. He tells Reid that he must choose who lives and who dies.

Later, Tobias kills another couple in their home, then returns to the cabin. He compares the BAU team to the seven Archangels of Revelations. He again insists that Reid choose one of them to die. Reid chooses Hotch, calling him a classic narcissist (a clue to Reid's whereabouts). Tobias then drags Reid to a cemetary and forces him to dig his own grave. Reid manages to get loose and acquire Tobias' gun. Reid shoots him, and Tobias thanks him before he dies, knowing that he will be reunited with his long dead mother.

Modus Operandi
Tobias calls 911 before committing his murders, usually quoting scripture stating that his victims are cimmitting some sort of sin. His victims are always people he has been watching with the victims' own webcam (which he has hacked into). The murders are then broadcast over the internet or sen through eMail to authorities. When his victims are found, their throats are cut, long gashes are found from the groin to the upper thigh and up either arm. The local Medical Examiner suggests that the cuts are similar to the way one would slaughter an animal, and that the killer could be anyone in the rural Atlanta area.
