Ra usually appears with the body of a man and the head of a hawk, surmounted by a solar disk.
Often he can be seen in the shape of a hawk.
He can shape change at will,
and has a permanent [anti-magic shell] which prevents the entrance of others' spell effects but allows Ra to cast his own spells.
He can cast the light of day into area he wishes.

In battle, Ra has the power to shoot rays of intense heat from his hands,
two at a time,
to a range of 500 yards.
These rays inflict 4-40 points of damage,
and cannot be negated by any power in the universe.

The god prevents fighting among the other beings of the pantheon and is able to reduce all conflict to a state where only the clerics of the sect are able to battle,
with their respective gods never taking a hand,
unless Ra himself is out of commission.

Matet (Semktet): He rides through the air in a huge war galley made of part of the sun and called the Matet
(this galley changes into a simple barge at night called the Semktet). <what kind of barge?>
It travels at a rate of 24", is surrounded by flames (which inflict 40 points of searing damage on contact), and is never affected by magic.
