You know him, you love em, '''Ra''', also known as, '''Amun-Ra''', '''Ra-Horakhty''', and '''Re''', was the sun god of the ancient Egyptians, and is '''THE''' archetypical solar deity. To the ancient Egyptians, Ra was the divine creator and ferry man of the sun, carrying it across the sky in his [[Battle Barge|Solar Barge]]. Helping him out in his journey across the firmament was the cat goddess [[Bastet]], his own personal cat-girl warrior-assistant, and in some areas of egypt, he was also joined by the lion headed god of war, Anhur. Another helping hand on his boat was [[Set]], the same brother killing, cum-laced lettuce eating, eye-plucking jerk who fought with Horus. Why he helped out manning the solar barge is simple, the threat of the Sun-Eater serpent of [[Chaos]] known as Apophis, who every evening assaulted the sun-party to eat Ra, was too great that even a god of destruction couldn't ignore. Being such a popular god in egyptian mythology and a symbol of the ancient world, Ra has appeared in many /TG/ related media and tabletop games. ==[[Forgotten Realms]]== {{Infobox Deity |Name = Re (Forgotten Realms) |Symbol = [[File:Solar Disk of Ra.png]] <center>The Solar disk, wrapped by a serpent</center> |Aliases = Ra, Re-Horakhty |Alignment = Lawful Good |Divine Rank = Demigod (formerly head god of the Mulhorandi pantheon) |Pantheon = Egyptian, Mulhorandi |Portfolio = The Sun, Kings |Domains = Life, Light |Home Plane = [[Arcadia]] |Worshippers = Kings, Priests |Favoured Weapon = Spear }} In the [[Forgotten Realms]] setting of Mulhorand, Ra was the former head of the Mulhorandi pantheon, and acted through a avatar known as Re on primary realms, however he was fatally wounded in the Battle of the Gods by [[Gruumsh]], the orc god during the Orcgate wars. He transferred his divine power to his protege Horus, who became known as Horus-Re. {{clear}} ==[[Dungeons & Dragons 3rd Edition|3.5e]]== {{Infobox Deity |Name = Amun-Ra (3.5e) |Symbol = The Sun |Aliases = None |Alignment = Lawful Neutral |Divine Rank = God |Pantheon = Egyptian |Portfolio = Order, the Sun, Rebirth, Royalty, The Nile, the Gods |Domains = Sun, Order, Light |Home Plane = [[Awesome|The Sun itself]] |Worshippers = Kings |Favoured Weapon = Whips, staves }} Basically the exact same as his IRL and historical counterpart, gave some of his power to [[Isis]] to help revive [[Osiris]] so they can [[Slaanesh|get their necrophilia on]] and create Horus to fight [[Set]]. Got put to sleep by Isis so that Osiris could become king of the gods, however his followers still get some power from him whenever he opens his eye to rub divine boogers out of it. A force of followers and faithful known as Ra's Fist travel about the world, looking for anything that could be used to wake up their sleeping god. {{clear}} ==[[Pathfinder]]== {{Infobox Deity |Name = Ra (Pathfinder) |Symbol = Solar Disk |Aliases = King of the heavens |Alignment = Lawful Neutral |Divine Rank = God |Pantheon = Ancient Egyptian |Portfolio = Creation, rulership, the Sun |Domains = Fire, glory, law, Nobility, the Sun |Home Plane = [[Golarion#Osirion|Osirion]] |Worshippers = Rulers, Priests, Day workers |Favoured Weapon = Spear }} Ra is the supreme creator god and king of legend in [[Golarion#Osirion|Osirion]], he is the father of [[Bastet]], [[Hathor]], [[Maat]], and [[Sekhmet]]. [[Thoth]] is his son-in-law and secretary, while [[Wadjet]] helps him in his role as the divine patron of kings. Everyday he fights the long battle at sunset against [[Apep]] and is aided by his fellow gods. If Ra wins, the sun rises the next day, if he loses, [[Grimdark|everything goes bye bye]]. <gallery> File:Ra.jpg </gallery> {{D&D-Historical-Deities}} {{Pathfinder-Deities}}
