Nemhisect the first, born as the hidden son of Akhenaten, lied to since childhood about his right to the

throne of Egypt and betrayed by his own father when he discovered his rightful destiny. His father was claimed to have met death in battle before his birth and his mother claimed to have died bringing him into the world, it was years before he realized his destiny. Nemhisect was forced into the ranks of the Egyptian military for a decade and began as a common peasant, yet he rose through the ranks to be above all but the Pharaoh, becoming a General due to his skill and resolve to serve the Gods. Everything changed during a nighttime raid on a camp of their wretched Nubian enemies; he rode at the forefront of an army of five hundred. The vile war chants of the Egyptian warriors boomed across the desert, however flaming arrows prevented their enemies from making their escape. Nemhisect commanded his own magnificent blue and golden chariot, a sight only beaten by the chariot of the Pharaoh himself who at the time was bedridden with illness. It was on this night, after slaying many Nubians and staining the desert red that as he searched for the camps leader, he found an old woman crawling through the crimson sands away from the attackers; in pity he commanded the others to leave her be, stepping down from his blood spattered chariot to question her. When he grabbed her by her wet, gore-stained rags and looked into her green eyes, the colour of Papyrus reeds; eyes much the same as his own he knew he could not kill her. Staring into his eyes with powerful intent and wisdom she spoke quickly to him with parched words, claiming to be his mother of whom Akhenaten - his true father - had exiled, calling Nemhisect by name and whispering its meaning; bringing forth powerful memories seemingly from his birth Apprentice to Horus, the god of war. The one true king of Egypt. In his heart, Nemhisect knew this to be his destiny. Angered by this almighty knowledge he journeyed for days back to the central point of the Kingdom of Egypt, with his mother hidden on the floor of his chariot. He challenged the recovering Pharaoh, who proceeded to call the guards to restrain him and with Akhenatens own hands, slaughtered his mother in front of his eyes. To avoid the truth escaping, Nemhisect was locked away by his father and experimented on by the Pharaohs servants with cruel instruments as Akhenaten tries to reach closer to the sun god, Ra and become ruler of the Gods. Embalmed alive with an apparently mystical oil of insects of the desert and the blood of the damned, Nemhisect begins to mutate, breaking from the embalmings bindings. A mutated insectoid Nemhisect escapes, vowing revenge but knowing he does not yet have the power to defeat the Pharaoh and his men; he retreats underground and plans his revenge.
