#nefertina

All except the guardian mummies! They realize that, since they're technically dead, they are completely unaffected by the aging spell and are thus able to act and save the world.

Being the team’s token girl member, Nefertina got the most costume changes, personally I think she looks cute in hats. She was so much fun! She liked to race cars (chariots back in ancient Egypt) and fight but also to wear gowns and sing. She was a gal who could do it all.

She had to pretend to be a male in ancient Egypt because only men were allowed to drive Chariots and serve as warriors. She shortened her name to Nefer and bound her chest to achieve this.

Her armor was cat based and her patron goddess was Bast. In fact she had a problem with Bast in one episode, and her weapon was a whip and her claws ala Catwoman lol.

There are actually a plethora of serpentine deities in the Egyptian pantheon, but I believe Rath’s patron goddess is probably Wadjet. It would make sense, since she was a goddess primarily concerned with protecting the Pharoh and the royal line. She was closely associated with the sun god Ra, and her "wedjet's eye" (aka eye of Horus) features prominently on Presley's protection amulet, which he was given by Rath. She was also depicted in the uraeus (cobra in the Pharaoh's crown) and was a symbol of royalty and power. This works given Rath being a scholar tends to act the most ‘aristocratic’ of the mummies. Incidentally, her name also means "Green one".

Ja-Kal's patron god would seem straightforward. His is likely Horus. He (Horus) is the son of Osiris, and grandson of the primordial creator god Atum. As one might expect, Horus was depicted as a man with a falcon's head. He was also associated with the heavens, and known for outwitting his foes. As the Pharaoh was said to be "the living Horus" on Earth, it would make sense he would also grant mystical armor to one of his guardians. The rivalry between Ja-Kal and his brother Arakh would also appear to be a nod to the myth of Horus’ father Osiris vs his own brother Set.

But, if we want to dig a little deeper and maybe read too much into small details, his armor could also be an ibis, which would tie him to the god Thoth. Thoth was another bird deity, god of wisdom, and attributed with the creation of hieroglyphs and writing instruments. In Sleep Walk Like an Egyptian Ja-Kal's wife Tia mentioned their son Padjet was ‘helping’ with the ink-making. The toddler’s hand print on a scrap of cloth is all Ja-Kal has left to remember his family. It's a bit of a stretch, but it could be a reference to Thoth!
