Imhotep

==Summary==
Imhotep was an ancient Egyptian priest, the high-priest of Osirs, and the adviser to Seti I. For his crimes of murdering the Pharaoh and using dark magic from the book of the dead, Imhotep was punished with death and mummification, becoming the only known person to be cursed with the Hom-Dai, the most evil of all ancient curses.
Imhotep was brought back in the first Mummy; this in turn gave him the desire to devour human flesh and the intent to spread evil and corruption throughout the world. Imhotep's intentions to rule the Earth turned towards the direction of taking over the command of the Army of Anubis.

==Explanations==
As a resurrected immortal, Imhotep's form was truly invincible, with any wounds he receives healing in moments. As part of the Hom-Dai curse that comes with him, the mere presence of Imhotep upon gaining power invoked the Biblical Ten Plagues of Egypt. Imhotep was able to transform himself into the sand, fly in the form of a sandstorm while transporting others within the sandstorm, and exercise control over sand, water, and wind. He was also able to telekinetically move objects with his mind at a distance with mere gestures, Imhotep’s strength and agility were superhuman as he was able to scale walls and ceilings and superhuman strength in his first fight with Rick. As an adept sorcerer, Imhotep knew the spells required to resurrect the dead if, given the right circumstances, notably a sacrifice if the deceased’s organs were too old; along with this, Imhotep could also summon mummies and order them to do his bidding. Along with this, Imhotep was also proficient in hand-to-hand combat and using Egyptian weapons.
As an immortal, however, Imhotep was still vulnerable to certain ancient Egyptian spells contained within the Book of Amun-Ra, notably that which stripped away his immortality. Every time, immediately after he was resurrected, Imhotep’s abilities were weak but growing, and were nourished by killing and assimilating the organs and fluids of those that had opened the chest containing the five canopic jars that he had employed to resurrect Anck-Su-Namun.
