Rahu is an asura rana1 associated with executions and eclipses, which his followers see as expressions of gluttony for life and light.2

Appearance

Rahu appears as the severed head of an immense serpent, yet he is capable of flight.2

On Golarion

Rahu has allied with Yuildoroc, a veiled master who hides under the city of Manaket in godless Rahadoum, due to their shared interest in deicide. To show his good will, Rahu sent Yuildoroc an aghasura named Shuvahavorath and two dozen tripurasuras, the latter of whom are now serving as Yuildoroc's spies in Manaket.3
