The Menaphite Pharaoh on his throne
The Pharaoh is the current ruler of Menaphos. He is considered by non-Menaphites to be greedy and cruel.[1][2] He appears to hold little regard for religion, employing men willing to open fire on religious leaders.[3] He rules through fear and employs a vast spy network to suppress dissent.[4]
History
At an unknown time, a group of Amascut devotees attempted to overthrow the Pharaoh, but failed. They were subsequently exiled from Menaphos and retreated to Pollnivneach to regroup for another attempt.[5]
During the Fifth Age, Menaphos was at war with Al Kharid but the Pharaoh, then a worshipper of Apmeken, declared a fragile peace with Emir Shah.[6] Amascut, furious at the cessation of of hostilities, dealt with the Pharaoh.[7]
When the Emir fell ill and his son Ali Mirza went missing in 169, Jabari, a Menaphite ambassador and thrall of the Devourer sent to Al Kharid demanded stability, even if that meant putting a Menaphite on the throne, even temporarily. The offer was rejected, with Al Kharid's spymaster Osman suggesting the Pharaoh was involved in the kidnapping of the Prince.[8] The Emir believed that Menaphos would declare war should he die without Ali to take up the throne, though the prince was later recovered.
When the neighbouring city of Sophanem became infested by plagues, the Pharaoh ordered the gates between the cities sealed, quarantining the city and restricting the movement of Sophanites. Attempts to establish contact between the cities have been violently repelled by Coenus, the vicious Captain of the Menaphite Guard. Upon hearing the slaves of Sophanem had been temporarily relieved of their duty following the quarantine, the Menaphite slaves rose in rebellion, although Coenus and his men managed to harshly subdue the revolt in the imperial and merchant districts.
Sometime ago, during a riot , the Menaphite guards captured Batal. To ensure no more workers would riot, the Pharaoh had Batal's hands cut off to make him an example of what would happen if he was defied again.
According to rumours, the Pharaoh is not planning on opening the city gates soon - the opposite, if anything.[9]
During The Jack of Spades quest, the Pharaoh reluctantly allows the player and Grand Vizier Hassan into the city, telling Jabari that he is taking a big risk inviting outsiders into Menaphos. He has his men watch the two to ensure they do not cause any trouble while they stay in the city.
During Crocodile Tears, the Pharaoh learns that Crondis has broken free of Amascut's hold, and decides to take Jabari's advice of paying the local bandits and thugs to terrorise the city.
