Amaunator, the Keeper of the Yellow Sun is the Lawful Good Greater God of the Sun in the Forgotten Realms setting. [1][2] Amaunator is the reincarnated deity of the sun, the timekeeper of the gods. Though some say he died, he actually transformed into Lathander, and was worshiped under that name for centuries before finally reclaiming both his name and his mission. He causes the sun to burn and sets its course across the sky, giving rise to the celestial clock by which all time is measured. [1]
