Imhotep

"By the power of Ra, I expel you from this territory!"~ Imhotep to an unidentified Snole in A Week in the Life.
Imhotep is a Mummy from ancient times who serves the Monirken Empire & has been known as one of the greatest minds in all of Egypt. After being given a new body for his soul when the empire revived him, he became a powerful magical warrior who protects the Earth. He is a main character in the Terrachaoverse series.
Tier: High 8-C from 2013 to mid 2017; 7-B from late 2017 to 2020; 6-C, higher with Gey Bolj
== Appearance ==
Imhotep's old body featured tan skin & a bald head, but in his newer body, his skin was made a bit lighter, & he also has dark brown hair with facial hair. Most of his head is concealed in a white mask, which is made of organic material & has now permanently fused to his face. He has no visible nose, but his nostrils can still be seen at the right angle. Over time, his mask has deteriorated, with evident scars & tears being shown in videos from 2019 onward. 
He usually wears green clothing to show his loyalty to the Monirken Empire, as green is its primary color. He also wears jewel-encrusted golden armor with blue lining around his neck, & as of 2021, a gold tie made of silk with three diamonds embedded into it. The armor used to be for special occasions, but he has since made it part of his usual attire. In A Wonderful Day, he added a golden wristband to his wardrobe.
== History ==
To be added
== Personality ==
Imhotep is loyal, dedicated, & happy to serve the Monirken Empire, doing whatever he can to please his superiors. He is very personable & polite, showing little to no qualms when meeting those who are vastly different from him. Being reborn into a new world & adapting to a new culture, he has gone through much change indeed, but he welcomes it. He has never truly wronged anyone & he plans to keep it that way. He is widely respected amongst fellow imperials for his friendly demeanor & widsom. Imhotep may be goofy & incredibly silly based on his extreme interests in dank memes, but he is wise beyond expectation. When he was a Human, his studies were exemplary, inventing such wonders as the pyramids themselves.
== Powers & Abilities ==
=== Physical Abilities ===
Mummy Strength: Imhotep is considerably strong despite not being much of a physical fighter. He can break free from the jaws of Shark Puppet, overpower Wollips, defeat Xorbyent Zerpentine, knock down the Penny Thief in one hit, & wrestle with the Mad Artist. He has progressively become stronger over the course of the series & is currently comparable to Jack Jarren in terms of raw power output. 
* North Star Chop: A technique he does not use often, Imhotep can chop at blinding speeds. He once did this to a Wollip, completely shattering his spine in the process.
* Anti-Spaz Twist: He can somehow stop someone having a seizure by twisting their nipples. He only demonstrated this once on Fallaballa.
Mummy Speed: Imhotep has shown good speed feats throughout the series. He can write full sentences at blinking speed & run across great distances within short amounts of time. When submerged, he can swim fast enough to dodge bullets, as seen with his fight against the Mad Artist. He also scales to Jack's transonic speeds in terms of running speed, though his reaction speed is much higher, as he could deflect a barrage of O'Brien's Plasma Bolts within a short amount of distance & match lightning bolts from the Hallows Blade, placing him the massively hypersonic range.
* Naruto Run: As a speedster, Imhotep can utilize the Naruto Run to become more aerodynamic & accelerate his speed. He does this a lot.
Durability: Like most Mummies, Imhotep has a high pain threshold. He has recovered from losing his hand, being bitten by the Screaming Skull, getting shot in the foot by a magnum revolver, recovered from an attack by the Mad Artist's crayon, bit through wood & metal without breaking his teeth, quickly recovered from his shoulder being frozen by a Snole, withstood the High Priest Not to Be Described's Distortion Flute, & even survived a small dosage of Quachil Uttaus' Deadly Dust Touch. 
Regeneration: Outfitted with specialized synthetic tissue, Imhotep can regenerate his wounds very quickly. This was shown when he was able to stop his hand from bleeding after Hogulus cut it off, growing it back off-screen, & when Zerpentine shot him in the foot, only for him to immediately recover & chase after his enemy.
Immortality: Imhotep is immortal in that he is immune to aging & he can't die from bleeding out.
Skilled Marksmanship: Imhotep has been seen proficiently using photon blasters before, & will use them only when necessary.
Piloting Skills: Imhotep was once seen flying a Spittle Runner.
Limited Environmental Adaptation: As a gift from Santa Maria, Imhotep can adapt his body to certain environments on a whim. It is unknown as to how far this ability can go, but he had built a resistance to the cold thanks to it.
=== Special Powers ===
Intellect: Do not be fooled by his goofy demeanor, for Imhotep is wise beyond his years. Recognized as a master architect, along with countless other professions, Imhotep is one of the most intelligent servants of the Monirken Empire. Not to mention, his insight on why Emperor Dan really destroyed the Earth in 2018 was so accurate that Dan himself had to wipe his memory of his theory. He is also proficient at poetry.
Power Sensing: Like several supernatural beings of the Terrachaoverse, Imhotep can sense the power levels/signatures of other supernatural beings.
Mummy Magic: Even when he was Human, Imhotep knew some knowledge regarding magic. But when he was reborn in the modern world, he learned how to use more advanced magic, & has been under the tutelage of King Tuckyourshirtin.
* Telepathy: Imhotep can mentally communicate with others. On a couple of occasions, he has even been seen doing so by communicating through dead bodies.
*Teleportation: Imhotep can instantly travel from one location to another, a power he learned in 2021. His distance can span continents, as he lives in Egypt despite that he mainly operates in the Unites States.
**Portal Sealing: He can close portals & dimensional vortices.
**Summoning Spell: Imhotep can summon allies to his or someone else's aid, like when he dispatched Takunta to Maryland to assist Vendu, or when he summoned Amogus to run an identity check on Jack. He does this by thinking of who to summon, rubbing his hands together, slamming them on the ground, & uttering a yell.
*Limited Illusions: Imhotep once manifested the word "SUCC" to appear & can magically warp the space around his face to look swirly. He can't seem to do this on a higher level, & only does it to make him look silly.
* Color Manipulation: Imhotep has only used this power a couple times, but he can cause his surroundings to change colors. 
*Nose Flute: A special & ancient technique learned from Dinosaur Man, Imhotep can magically play a fully orchestrated song with his nose, even if he's not using an instrument, as the one time he did this it was done with a shell. However, he has not fully perfected it, as a simple sneeze stopped the whole thing.
*Pyrokinesis: Imhotep has some control over the element of fire, usually using it to power his staff, but he can still use it on its own, like creating a fireball in the palm of his hand or lighting a match with his thumb.
*Fairy Dust: Imhotep can project sparkles of mystic light from his hands. While it is not really an offensive ability, he can use it for an attack if he wants to, like throwing it into someone's eyes.
*Potion Creation: Also only seen once, Imhotep appears to be able to create mystic potions, as he made one for Dr. Sack to make him better at using the Shadow Pumpkin's powers. This is a trait he may have carried over from his first life when he was a master of medicine.
*Fusion Dance: By performing a sacred dance mirroring someone else doing the same dance, Imhotep can fuse with another being, multiplying their power levels together. He has fused with Jack on at least three occasions.
*The Mummy's Curse: A power not often used, Imhotep can inflict curses onto people. He can give multiple curses, but he has forgotten exactly how many he has at his disposal. However, it is confirmed that he can inflict curses of infestation, famine, & bad luck. Due to moral & ethical restraints, Imhotep is very hesitant to casually use this kind of magic, but he was willing to use it against the Beast (which worked) & threatened to use it against Jackiller.
**Curse Immunity Spell: After his near-fatal encounter with Quachil Uttaus in 2017, Imhotep would learn how to ward off curses as opposed to giving them. His only instance of doing so is when he placed this spell on Jack in case the Shadow Pumpkin would hurt him upon him trying to consume it.
*Gey Bolj: A rather unusual but super effective technique, if Imhotep utters the spell Gey Bolj, he can throw his staff (or any other spear-like weapon) as a homing attack, as the magic behind the spell reverses cause & effect. This means that even if he misses his target, his staff will still hit his opponent, as the spell itself targets his opponent directly. This was even able to successfully puncture O'Brien, who is much stronger than Imhotep.
*Pyramid Beam: Imhotep's most powerful attack; by using the Eye of Horus, signaled by him making a triangular hand gesture over his forehead, Imhotep can fire a golden beam of magical energy. When the Skullsteroid was about to impact the Earth, a combined effort between Golden Claudius, Imhotep, & Jack destroyed the asteroid. While Claudius & Imhotep would eliminate its magical barrier, Jack would deliver the finishing blow & destroy it physically. Despite its tremendous amount of damage, it gives him momentary, yet great pain, as he screams uncontrollably while doing so.
== Equipment ==
Golden Staff of Ra: From 2019 onward, Imhotep has been seen wielding an ancient Egyptian staff which is gold in color & has magical properties.
* Solar Flame: Imhotep can hurdle fireballs by swinging his staff.
* Sun Beams: Imhotep can fire beams of mystic solar energy from the staff.
Photon Blaster: On his mission to steal the cure to the Quaternary Plague, Imhotep was given a photon blaster to use. It can blast projectiles of light energy & did significant damage to Hogulus, causing him to roar in pain.
Shamrock Stone: During his chase with Xorbyent Zerpentine, Imhotep was given a magical gemstone with a shamrock shape on it by Dan. It can be used to power machines & also grants the wielder some degree of good luck.
Metal Detector: Claudius gave Imhotep a special metal detecting device that was forged on Invidia. It's apparently compatible with magical gemstones, which in conjunction can release a beam of electromagnetic energy. Just one blast was able to immobilize Zerpentine.
Wakandan Spear: Imhotep has wielded a spear on one occasion, with a wooden handle & a vibranium tip. He bought it while visiting Wakanda once.
Gas Mask: In LOOKS LIKE IT'S PLAGUING TIME, Imhotep can be seen wearing a golden steampunk gas mask. It appears to be of the same design as Doombringer's second mask.
== Weaknesses ==
Although Imhotep was once a brilliant genius, his new body gave his soul a new brain to work with, & is therefore not as smart as he used to be. Rest assured, he's not exactly an idiot; he's just silly.
In R4NDOMN355: Running in the Snow, Imhotep claimed he was colorblind, but this hasn't really been a prevalent feature as of lately. It could be possible that he is only partially colorblind like Dan is.
In regards to his curse, he can only issue it if the person, or people being cursed have stolen something from him, or have directly threatened someone close to him. If either are returned to him safely, Imhotep must abide by the rules & lift the curse. Also, his staff cannot utilize energy from the Sun if it's not in direct contact with its light.
== Trivia ==
* His real-world counterpart was the Chancellor to Pharaoh Djoser of the Third Dynasty. He has been allegedly credited as the designer for the step pyramid, essentially making him the architect of the first pyramids. He was also the High Priest of Ra & was even deified posthumously, becoming known as the God of Medicine. Despite this title, the TC-Verse Imhotep is not a god, nor even a demigod.
*His Gey Bolj ability is directly inspired by the Gáe Bolg attack used by Cú Chulainn from the Fate series.
*His favorite character from Doki Doki Literature Club is Natsuki.
