Eye of Ra

The **Eye of Ra** are a group of six Setepnetjeru who can summon a spark of Ra's power, because, as Ra's femenine counterpart, they are an extension of his power. That is because Zahi, the Setepenra, is held captive. So, the Setepnetjeru can use a little bit of his power only when it is needed against forces of Chaos.

Their symbol is a sun disk with two cobras coiled around it.

## Origin

### Released Energy

In the year 4007, Zahi was being experimented on in the Apeproid Laboratories by the Smaiu. Trying to get fire out of his body from his *Was* source, the Smaiu created an enormous machine called "The Extractor", where they would force Zahi to release his power in a capsule, and the fire would be sucked and contained. For this, they needed Zahi to produce a great quantity of energy, and since his *Was* was related to his emotions, they planned a way to make Zahi cause a big combustion of fire.

Before sunrise, as the scientists put Zahi in the capsule, they brought Cleo, a single mother he worked with in the mines of Iunu and who he was in love with, to trigger his fire. They tortured and killed her in front of him, which drove him to implode out of anger and sorrow. The energy released was so big and powerful that caused The Extractor to explode, killing various Smaiu and scientists in the process. Yet, Zahi's *Was* energy was instead directed by the bonds Ra shares with six of his daughters who Chose, and ended up in these Setepnetjeru.

### Birth of the Eye

Brenna McKliff, 51, was asleep beside her husband George Ankhaf in their quiet home in Mendes, Waset. She woke up to go to the bathroom, as she did almost every night, but in the way she felt something in her chest igniting and tried to fought it with energy of her own. Sensing the temperature rise in his room, George woke up thinking Brenna had another seizure because of her mental illness. Brenna assured him that this was something different. Instantly, he called his son Hector.

Vanessa Hakoris at age 10 awoke from a peaceful sleep in her home, Hakoris Castle, feeling like she was burning. Her maids attended her, but she warned them not to touch her when she noticed her clothes and bedsheets scorched. Her maids called for her parents instantly, and knowing it was something connected to *Heka*, they called the Ankhafs.

Kyra Qalhata was four years old when it came to her, while she had breakfast. She screamed and cried, and when her father tried to pick her up from the floor, his hands burnt as they touched his daughter's skin. Her mother instantly called an ambulance and took her to the hospital. After Kyra was in the hands of professionals, remembering that Hector and Monique told her to call if something strange happened to Kyra, her father called.

Arielle Moore, 29, who was also sleeping, felt the heated energy suddenly in her body and transformed to her Lioness form as a defense mechanism, where she lost control. Trying not to hurt her husband, Jedrick Ankhaf, or her children, she went out of Per-Ankhaf and into the forest behind it. Jedrick went quickly to tell his brother Hector about Arielle's sudden behavior.

Monique Egyps, 30, was asleep in her bed beside her husband when a sudden burst of warm energy gripped her heart and filled her mind with images of fire. She tried to contain it with her own *Was*, but the pain was too real. Hector woke up and wanted to help her, but he got burnt at her touch. Using her *ren*, he felt the intensity of the energy inside of her and thought quickly of a solution to something that had never happened before. His phone rang and he picked up when it announced it was his father telling him Brenna had an attack like she was burning from the inside, and that he was trying to help her by reducing gradually her temperature and wrapping her in cold winds. That gave Hector a solution and he went to his bathroom to turn up the bathtub with cold water. Accessing Monique's *ren* again, he protected his skin and carried her to the water while she still fought internally. Then his brother Jedrick entered his bedroom to tell him that something happened to Arielle and she transformed. Thinking about how it was affecting women who were Setepnetjeret close to the family, he instantly went to his daughter's bedroom, where he found Lyla peacefully asleep. That woke up a 11-year-old Ethan from Alarick's bedroom, who went to see his mother and picked up the phone when the Hakoris called, instructing them calmly to put Vanessa in cold water. Later Hector would get another call from Kyra's parents about a similar situation while he sat beside a now restful Monique. Hearing sirens nearby, he looked at the window to see fire in Per-Takhat.

### Aftermath

Hector and Monique came to the conclusion that it had something to do with Zahi, who was captured by the Smaiu three years prior and taken somewhere unknown. Hector took Arielle and Monique's *ren* and read their new source of energy beside their own *Was*, that was implanted that night and was full of solar fire. According to the chosen goddesses, it was clear that the half mortal Eye of Ra were born.

In 4021 Vanessa would confirm that once she got her *Was* and was able to see the bonds between the women and the source far far away.

## Abilities

**Pyrokinesis:** Generate, shape and manipulate fire, the rapid oxidation of a material in the exothermic chemical process of combustion, releasing heat, and various reaction products, flame being the visible portion of the fire. Although, this ability is fully tied to her impulses and emotions. It is mostly important to know that the Eye of Ra are not immune to fire, making the fire they summon able to potentially burn them if they are not careful.

* **Thermal Resistance -** Even though they can burn, their bodies are resistant to the extremely high temperatures of fire; reason why no harm comes when they generate fire or are close to it, but only if they touch it. This doesn't make them immune to smoke either.
* **Fire Generation -** Generate and project fire from her hands.
* **Heat Generation -** From all of them, Kyra is the only Eye that can increase the kinetic energy of atoms, meaning they effectively make things hotter, ranging from slightly warm levels to absolute hot.
* **Fire Atack -** Use fire to attacks of various shapes and/or intensities projected.
	+ **Fire Stream Projection -** Generate or create flamethrower-like blasts of flame and they can control the size and radius of their blasts.
	+ **Fire Ball Projection -** Create fireballs of different sizes and throw them, causing the targets to burst into flames.
	+ **Fire Breath -** Only Arielle while being in her lioness form can  generate and manipulate fire within them in a way that allows them to shape the exhaling of the effect. These shapes can include bursts, streams and spheres.
