OVERVIEW
The former queen of Egypt, the so-called 'most beautiful woman in the world', ended up serving the Egyptian death god Osiris after her death.
HISTORY
Nefertiti was the queen of Egypt during the 18th dynasty, and the wife of Pharaoh Akhenaten. She was famous for her beauty and is believed to have taken an active part in her husband's attempts to reform Egyptian religion and culture. She is believed to have lived 1370–1330 B.C.
At some point, Nefertiti disappeared from all historical records. She may have died a sudden death, been banished, or simply have fallen out of grace. Her face has been immortalized by the famous Nefertiti bust, nowadays exhibited at the Egyptian Museum in Berlin.
In recent times, she has been seen as the servant of the Egyptian death god Osiris, which is slightly ironic considering that she and her husband once tried to promote a monothetistic religion centered around the sun god Aten. Now that Osiris has been killed by the witch Thessaly, Nefertiti's current whereabouts remain unknown.
POWERS AND WEAPONS
Unknown, but as a spirit and servant of Osiris, she probably enjoys some sort of longevity and intangibility.
