Phoenix King Ra

"We will fight with you. And Valentine will fall.  Ready yourselves!  Once ready, we go to war!"

Phoenix King Ra is the monarch of the phoenix race, seated on his golden throne in the city of Ka'a. He will provide the army for the resistance to aid them in the final assault of Idris.

Biography
Ra was born almost a thousand years ago, and he assumed the throne after his father died. He was ruled for over 650 years. About a decade after taking the throne, Ra took a mate, Nasaero, who became the Phoenix Queen and ruled by his side. In 1995, Ra happened to be visiting the city located in Africa, and happened upon an infant and very ill Kyle Vivoka. Pitying the child, Ra transferred some of his power into the boy, transforming into the very first and only phoenix-human hybrid. He was approached by Kyle Vivoka, Etzel von Gerhart, and Kitty Bane in 2011.

Personality
Ra is a firm yet fair and kind ruler to his people. However, he does not trust or like downworlders at all, and the same goes for Nephilim, mundanes, demons, or any mixture of the sight. He does hold respect and admiration for the angels, however, and he will grudgingly admit his respect for someone if they have earned. He harbors a pleasant dislike of Valentine, though not outright hatred because Valentine has not acted against, either because he fears walking into Ka'a would be suicide, or because he does not know that phoenixes exist.

Relationships
Nasaero--Nasaero is the only one who can calm the rage within Ra when he is angered, and he loves her deeply. He has been with her for 640 years.

Kyle Vivoka--Ra treats Kyle as if he were the Phoenix King's own flesh and blood, and Kyle is next in line for the throne once Ra dies.

Etzel von Gerhart--Ra secretly found the vampire to be amusing, although he was miffed when Etzel tried to sweet talk his mate. But he does not harbor any negative feelings towards Etzel.

Kitty Bane--Kitty kept silent throughout the meeting with Ra, so Ra didn't get much of an impression. However, since she did not attack him or do anything of the sort, he sees no reason to blast her into pieces.

Powers and Abilties
Like all phoenixes, Ra will burst into flames and die once every 500 years, and be reborn from the ashes to continue his rule. He can only be killed in battle. Ra has never demonstrated any of his power, but it can be assumed that he knows how to use his beak and talons to great effect, and it can also be assumed that he has control over the element fire. Due to his status as Phoenix King, Ra can call upon an army of phoenixes or the Royal Guard, to fight for him. Like all phoenixes, he has telepathy, and he speaks with other beings with his mind. He has never invaded a person's mind against their will, but it can be assumed that he is able to do so.
