*-Osiris the Good, Second Pharaoh of the Kem-Duati*

Osiris is the Kem-Duati God of the Dead, the Afterlife, Agriculture, Fertility, and Resurrection. He was the second Pharaoh to sit the Throne of Fire, having succeeded his grandfather Ra, before being usurped and murdered by his younger brother, Set. Osiris was a tremendously popular and beloved Pharaoh during his relatively short reign, and after his son Horus retook the throne, Osiris became Pharaoh once more, this time of the Duat, becoming the new ruler of the dead.

## Personality

### Pre-Betrayal

Osiris was often said to have inherited the best aspects of his parents' personalities. From Geb, he had patience, humility, and empathy, and Nut gave him the gifts of grace, charm, and seduction. Osiris had a magnetic presence, and seemed to light up every room he entered. People were drawn to his smooth voice, his confidant, regal bearing, and the dazzling smile that came to his face so easily.

Osiris was at ease in any social situation, able to dance with princes and paupers alike. He made friends and won loyalty easily, for he was generous, forgiving, graceful, and charming, lacking the haughtiness and cruelty that was common within the Kemari court. Osiris was very in touch with the people around him, frequently speaking with lesser gods about their concerns and woes, and working to ease relations within the pantheon. Additionally, Osiris was also very well regarded by his servants, knowing each of them by name and treating them with respect.

In his view, loyalty was best earned through love. Fear assured loyalty only for so long as it could be maintained, but love was a surer and stronger way of securing the devotion of one's subjects. To that end, Osiris sought to improve the lives of all within his rule, mortals included.

An inherent optimist and idealist, Osiris was quick to find the best in any situation. When the hopes of others flagged, Osiris would raise them up with a word. He always saw the best in people, and had a gift for spotting potential for good and rooting out the corrupt.

The latter was something he had little tolerance for. Benevolent and merciful as he usually was, Osiris also had a strong sense of justice, and was more than willing to harshly punish wrongdoers. He was a strong believer in the forces of law and order, and sought to wield those forces to the benefit of the greater good. Osiris himself was an exceedingly honorable person, always keeping his sworn word, and eschewing the use of duplicity and manipulation to achieve his goals, preferring to do so through open and honest means.

A passionate individual, Osiris also frequently involved himself in romances, and engaged in many affairs, siring numerous halfborn children and minor godlings. That said, Osiris was of the sort who sought deeper connections with his lovers, and did not pursue fleeting dalliances based on naught but physical attraction. While he went through many relationships, Osiris always managed to end them on good terms, and remained friends with his various lovers afterwards.
