Editing The Winged Dragon of Ra (section)

== Appearance ==
Ra is depicted as a massive golden dragon, seemingly composed of or encased in radiant golden metal. Its design combines saurian and avian features, giving it a unique and imposing appearance. The dragon's head and neck resemble a bird of prey, complete with feather-like ornaments on either side of its head and at its elbows. A jagged cone encircles its neck, enhancing its divine and fearsome look. Its wings are styled to appear feathered, and a prominent arch connecting its shoulder pauldrons serves as the source of its signature "Blaze Cannon" attack, which is channeled to its mouth through the feather-like head ornaments.

In the Memory World arc, Ra's design differs slightly: its beak is more bird-like and toothless, its tail is thinner, and it exhibits a form more consistent with its first official artwork. This artwork portrays Ra with a feather-like plume instead of the bony tail seen in its other depictions.

Ra has three distinct forms:

* '''Sphere Mode''': An orb of golden metal, representing Ra in a dormant state, which unfolds into its Battle Mode.
* '''Battle Mode''': The primary form, showcasing its full draconic might.
* '''Phoenix Mode''': A fiery transformation where Ra becomes a giant flaming bird, retaining the general shape of its wings and head but engulfed in flames, embodying its godly wrath.
