He was part of the cabal of nobles formed by Nagash, in -1962 IC gaining the title of Master of Rods - controlling the City Watch - after a plague killed many scions of the great houses. He used his power to also gain control of the criminal gangs as well. [1b]

He accompanied Nagash to the 2nd Battle at the Springs of Eternal Life.[1c]

When Arkhan the Black raised the dead from the tombs and took the city of Quatar in -1744 IC, Nemuhareb and his family were skinned alive by Raamket. The kings hide, the nerves magically preserved was stretched across the army standard. [1d]

As Arkhan falls from grace, Raamket continued to rise, accompaning Nagash and his Tomb Guard when the army arrived to begin the Siege of Mahrak. [1e] Following the defeat of Nagash at the siege in -1740 IC, Raamket retreated to Khemri with a few immortals and undead however when the allied armies arrived, he had already fled the city. [1f]
