A Priest (some sources incorrectly call him a "Pharaoh", which is not possible) during the 19th Dynasty Egypt, circa 1260 B.C. From a strange meteor he crafted the Orb of Ra, an extremely powerful object with possible godly connections. Exposure to the Orb transformed Ahk-Ton to the first 'metamorph', similar to what later happened to Metamorpho.
