Heya, Izaiah here. According to the rules, if you wish to adapt a historical or mythological concept, pantheon, element, etc to the CVnU, you will have to create a thread inviting to discuss it with the others, and reach some manner of agreement, and submit your concept to the Congress of Editors, who will approve or deny it. Once it's been approved, or if you've been added to a discussion, list yourselves here. See the rules thread for more in-depth instruction if you're unsure of anything, or ask here.

Cliff Notes •
- The Pantheon as believed in by the Ancient Egyptians were likely inspired by the Eternals of Heliopolis, colonists from the Xantroa. Apophis and other monsters are thought to have been inspired by the Arzacia. (Pending revision.)
- The pyramids and similarly impressive constructions were not made by Gods, Eternals or Aliens, but by the Egyptians themselves. The Egyptians in turn were descended from Nekhamis. /Izaiah, Araghor Roxom.
- Izaiah has in his possession Sutekh's 'Dominion Scepter' (actually the Ghimir Blade). He obtained it in the year 1335 B.C.E. (by way of time travel) and used it to kill Pharaoh Ikhnaton (who was possessed by the disembodied Eternal Aton). (Pending slight revision.)
