Osiris was an Intermediate Power of the Pharaonic pantheon, the child of Geb and Nut and a member of Ra's Ennead family.[1] According to legend, he was the first Pharaoh among mortals, and was raised to divinity by either Ra or Isis after being murdered by his rival Set.[2]
Osiris ruled the Third Realm of Heliopolis, Memphiria, where the faithful went after death. The realm was populated by undead, who were allowed to walk freely as long as their hearts were free from evil. Together with his wife Isis, Osiris had a keen interest in humanity and helped guide his worshippers to enlightenment.[2]
