Rafin was a photometric projection of a Vori male, serving as a soldier in the fourth contingent of the Vori Defense Contingent. Rafin was a young and inexperienced soldier, almost scared, during his first battle with the Kradin when Commander Chakotay, who crash landed with shuttlecraft on the planet in the Delta Quadrant in 2374, met him. Chakotay and Rafin befriended and Chakotay promised to watch out for him. Rafin was killed during an attack of the Kradin. (VOY: "Nemesis")
