Anhur Anhur ( pronounced " an " - hur ) , also known as Rumathep , Ramathant in Thay , and Ramatep in Unther , is a wise and peace - loving deity .

As the orc hordes surged forward , emboldened by the victory of Gruumsh over Re , Anhur devised a counter assault that eventually led to the end of the Orcgate Wars . During the Time of Troubles , Anhur secured the portfolio of the recently slain Untheric deity Ramman .
