Rahab (Legacy of Kain)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Rahab is a video game character in the Legacy of Kain series. He was voiced by Neil Ross.
[edit] Sarafan life
Rahab was born over 500 years before the start of the first game. He became one of the leaders of the Sarafan Order. Rahab was not present when his brethren killed Janos Audron and was only seen when slain by a future version of his fellow Sarafan Raziel. After his death, Rahab was interred in the Sarafan's holy tomb.
[edit] Vampire unlife
Centuries later, Rahab was risen from the Sarafan crypt as Kain's third youngest son. He was given clan territory in an unknown location, but his clan likely moved to the flooded valley they would eventually inhabit.
As the centuries progressed, Rahab evolved/degenerated into a sleek leviathan. Unlike his brethren Rahab never developed an immunity to sunlight and so was forced to overcome the natural Vampiric weakness to water. This trait was passed onto his spawn, though they were amphibious where Rahab was unable to leave the water due to the transformation of his legs into a fish-like fin. Some time between Raziel's execution and his resurrection as a wraith, Rahab's clan moved to an abandoned abbey that was half-submerged in a flooded valley. Raziel confronted Rahab and killed him by shattering the windows of Rahab's lair to shine sunlight onto him. Upon devouring Rahab's soul, Raziel obtained Rahab's resistance to water and ability to swim.
