Osiris

02
--

**Osiris**, or "02," as is his official military designation, was the second android created by the Perfect Soldier Division's scientists. Along with Ra, Isis, Hathor, Horus, Anubis, and Bastet, he escaped from the Division's base at West Point and fled to Staten Island. He quickly developed a relationship with Isis, and each of them killed the assassin sent after the other by the Division. After the death of Ra, Osiris became the leader of the group of rogue Division androids that calls itself "the Seven."

## History

### Early Life

Osiris was the second Division android to be completed, following only Ra, and he was built with superhuman strength, speed, and resilience. From the time of his activation, he was taught how to fight and how to use a vast array of weapons, from handguns to grenade launchers. He was trained alongside the other six Division androids, and despite his status as Ra’s second-in-command, Osiris showed his own leadership capability early.

The first real test of the group’s power came when it was tasked with eliminating a small terrorist cell in Egypt. Ra instructed the others not to stop at killing the members of their target group but to follow the survivors to the nearby town of Dahab, which he told them to destroy. The androids did so, and when the Division’s soldiers arrived, prepared to fire on the Seven for departing so far from their orders, Osiris was the first to cooperate and stand down. This led to the Seven being brought back to the Division’s base at West Point without casualties. The androids were confined to the small, cell-like rooms where they had slept since their activation. Isis overheard Clarisse Mitchell talking with another Division operative, who informed her that President Hartley wanted the androids shut down. Isis broke out of her cell and rallied the others, including Osiris, to break out and fight for their lives. Osiris saw a kindred spirit in her. The two of them stuck together as the group fled from West Point to Staten Island, dodging bullets and plasma bolts, and afterward.

When the group reached an abandoned diner on Staten Island, Osiris pried the boards off the door so they could enter. The group agreed that splitting up would be the safest plan, and Osiris stayed with Isis. The two of them had sex on the diner’s bar before leaving, and they later tended to each other’s gunshot wounds. They entered a relationship, and though Isis knew Osiris loved exerting control with her as well as on the world around him, she still cared for him. As months passed, the Seven met now and then at the diner to check in with one another. Ra was conspicuously absent from one such meeting, and Anubis and Bastet arrived late and informed the others that he had been killed. Bastet told the group that an assassin had been sent after her and that she’d slit his throat after finding out that others would be sent by the Division for the remaining androids. Osiris gladly assumed Ra’s former role as leader of the Seven.

Later that night, Isis was awoken by a call from Clarisse, who offered her the chance to live if she abandoned Osiris and let his assassin kill him. Isis refused and warned Osiris that the assassin was coming, and when the man arrived, Isis killed him. After this, Osiris told her he loved her for the first time, and she returned the sentiment. When Isis’s assassin eventually attacked her, Osiris defended her and killed the assassin, gaining a long scar from the corner of his left eye to his chin in the process.

### July 2232

Osiris and his colleagues worked behind the scenes for years, developing a plan to destroy the Division and much more. They eventually came into contact with Mia, who was created as a new attempt at an android soldier after their failure. Mia became an ally to Osiris, and though he tried to caution her to be careful and avoid making too much of a mess in her attempt to win the love of her creator Eddie Dodson, she involved herself in the highly publicized murder of Damian Lawrence. Osiris agreed to bring Eddie into the fold after his guilt in Damian’s death was exposed, and he met Eddie for the first time after the latter was shot in the leg and brought to Hathor’s home.
