Ra (WOD)

Ra or Re is the Egyptian god of the sun. In the Classic World of Darkness, there are several different accounts of Ra given by different factions.

Ra the Mortal
According to the lore of mummies, Ra was a mortal king of Egypt and grandfather of Osiris and Set. Ra executed their parents, Geb and Nut, for having too many children, as he felt threatened by the proliferation of royal blood. Set protested this action and was exiled from Egypt. When Ra died, Osiris ascended as king and had Ra deified.

Ra the God
In some versions of Setite lore, Ra was indeed a god, often identified with the Demiurge of Gnostic theology. According to one account, Ra cursed Set to live in perpetual darkness in the Underworld; when he learned from the Moon that Set had defeated Apophis and escaped, he extended this curse to the thirteen vampires with whom Set had shared his power. Another account has Set becoming a vampire while defending Ra's solar barque from Apophis.
