Information:
Ra was the god of the Sun, fire, justice (and Summer). Ra usually apperared among the peoples of Myaasia in the form of a Firegiant. His eyes were a deep amber and his hair was golden blond. Very tall, tan and muscular, he wore only a short tunic of white cloth trimmed with gold. He was often considered the god of fatherhood. He was very active in the contacts to mortals and on the forefront of the fight against evil. Most Paladins and many Monks followed him. His church was known for it’s fanaticism against unlife, only topped by church of Reann.

Ra seemed to be a recent god, there having been no indication of him in stories until about 150 years ago.

Legends say that he had elvish background from some greater elven clan and that he had been a great paladin of some other god previously. Some people claim that there was some strange connection between him and the Storm Goddess though they seem to be opposites.

He was easily the most active of the Lords of Orhan to appear to his followers and to help them.

He was not worshipped all that much in total, as most people found his church too flashy. His core support came from rulers, nobles, knights and others who valued honour. Overall he likely had the least followers of all of Lords of Orhan with the exception of Teris, though Valris and Kuor did not likely have many more.

Ra was killed while battling the lich Xanathar in the Great Battle of the Plains during the Unlife Wars at the end of the Third Era. A large portion of his worshippers died in that same battle.
