Highkeeper Ra is a titanic watcher who was originally charged to watch over the southern regions of Azeroth that would later be known as Pandaria, Uldum and Ahn'Qiraj. Ra bestowed life on the mogu, who know him as Ra-den or Ra-Den, which means "Master Ra" in their tongue. The Highkeeper has also simply been referred to by the mogu as The Storm and later "the sleeping keeper", while Xuen has referred to him as "the storm lord" or even "the storm god".

Thousands of years ago, Ra was defeated by Lei Shen, who stole the keeper's power and used it to establish his empire. Ra was thereafter chained beneath the Throne of Thunder, the seat of Lei Shen's power.

Much like the other titan-forged, Ra was created by the titans in order to wage war upon the Old Gods who had infested Azeroth. As the titans' colossal forms prevented them from taking direct action without harming or destroying Azeroth's world-soul, the titan Pantheon instead empowered titan-forged who'd then be known as keepers to do battle in their stead. Much like Odyn, Highkeeper Ra was empowered by Aman'Thul, the Highfather of the Pantheon. Ra was also entrusted with  [The Fist of Ra-den] by Aman'Thul. The Highkeeper used it to bestow life on the titan-forged mogu race, and he wielded it in battle against the Black Empire of the Old Gods for years beyond counting.

To reach the Old Gods, the titan-forged first needed to defeat their terrible servants, the Elemental Lords. The keepers resolved to divide and conquer their enemies, and so decided to split up and send each group of titan-forged to battle a specific lord. Keepers Ra, Thorim and Hodir were assigned to wage war on Al'Akir the Windlord. Using their mastery over skies and storms, the three keepers managed to defeat the Windlord atop his lofty domain. However, even though the lords had been defeated, the keepers knew that they would return in time. Ra soon found a solution, and, together with the titan-forged sorceress Helya, he forged the Elemental Plane to imprison the chaotic elementals. He then sealed its gates using  [The Highkeeper's Ward].
