Immunities: Ramathanhur is immune to acid, cold, disease, and electricity.

Ramathanhur is an Incarnation of Anhur, a Mulhorandi term referring to the mortal offspring of one of the god-kings of Mulhorand. In 922 DR, he was serving as commander of Mulhorand's armies based on the Priador Plateau. Taken by surprise by the rebellion of the Red Wizards, Ramanthanhur's troops were driven off the plateau and forced to regroup in the rolling hills of Thazalhar. Ramanthanhur was forced to resign his commission in disgrace, and he chose to dedicate his life to defending this ancient memorial to Re.

Like most Mulan, Ramathanhur is tall and devoid of any body hair. Of proud and noble bearing, the charismatic Son of Anhur stands nearly seven feet in height, has an aquiline visage and sparkling eyes of blue, and his golden skin seems to radiate light.

Gloves of Lightning: These flexible leather gloves are covered with small copper rivets. Three times per day the wearer may make a ranged touch attack (range 30 feet) that deals 1d8+5 points of electrical damage. The wearer gains a +3 bonus on the attack if the target is wearing metal armor (or made out of metal, carrying a lot of metal, and so on).

Caster Level: 6th; Prerequisites: Craft Wondrous Item, Bigby's clenched fist, mage armor, magic missile; Market Price: 22,000 gp; Weight: 2 lb.
