Osiris (cWOD)

Osiris, the "Resurrected King", is the progeny of a "Typhon", likely embraced by the Lasombra Antediluvian. Osiris created the Discipline of Bardo and the Caitiff, Children of Osiris, are followers of Osiris, but are not nessessarily a clan or bloodline. Osiris was destroyed by Set sometime after 3000 BC.

In the events that followed Osiris' death, his son Horus was also killed by Set, and brought to life with the Spell of Life. However, Osiris was also raised by his childer, brought from death through a strange ritual, Osiris was once again undead, but sterile - his vitae could no longer sire childer. He fought Set, throwing him from the throne of Egypt and then disappeared into history. The Children of Osiris followed his legend and worshipped him as a God, and he in turn taught them to suppress the Beast through the Discipline of Bardo.

(Osiris returns to the Underworld)

Osiris' story does not end with his descent to the Underworld. He took to his throne and watched over Amenti, the Dark Kingdom of Sand. He seemed by many to be asleep, and stayed in this form for millennia.

When the Sixth Great Maelstrom struck the Underworld, Osiris was awoken from his slumber. Amenti and all its resident spirits began to get shredded to pieces.

He realized the Spell of Life which created the Undying was imperfect. Instead of creating a creature who was the epitome of life, it created a mockery of it, little better than the undead the Undying fought.

Several things happened in a very short period of time:

All faithful Children of Osiris were turned, through Osiris' power, into normal mortals. Unfaithful were killed.

A new Spell of Life was distributed to the Children, as well as to existing Isis cults.

Osiris himself vanished from the Underworld, placing his essence into a network of magical sites known as the Web of Faith.

No one knows if Osiris in this new form has any sort of consciousness anymore.
