One Of The New Champions Of Shazam
Reputation
The 'smaller' champion of the Egyptian Gods, Amon is a new and mostly unknown hero. Those from Kahndaq may recognize his oddly similar outfit that resembles their ruler.
Biography
No one gets to choose their past.
If Amon had his way with his back story, he'd tell you he was selected as a champion of Shazam and the Gods of Egypt for his great bravery. That he was paragon of virtue and was always destined to become a warrior of the gods…But his story isn't that simple.
Instead, Amon Tomaz was born in the streets of Egypt. He was little to nothing from the day he was born, and most thought he would never become anything more. And honestly, they weren't exactly wrong. The only person who cared about him was his older sister, Adrianna. Even she was taken away from him at a very young age, and Amon was kidnapped and sent to slavery.
The Intergang camp Amon was forced to endure did not intend to force him into labor really. They actually wanted to brainwash him into joining their ranks. Although Amon didn't succumb to the will of the Intergang. Alas, they weren't fond of his resistance. Eventually, they made sure he would never walk again. And the savage beatings begun. When the situation looked dire, a goddess emerged…
Amon recognized the physical beauty of the goddess as his sister, Adrianna. Somehow, she became the reborn goddess, Isis. After the Intergang were single handedly defeated by Isis, she attempted to heal Amon's wounds. While his life was secured, he would never walk again.
Perhaps the gods felt merciful. Some would say Amon was lucky. Some would say it was destiny. Or there was a more…. mystical intervention.
Whatever the case, Amon Tomaz became Osiris and a new champion of the Egyptian Gods.

Character Details
Above all, Amon wishes to be a good person and help those in need. Considering all he's been through, it's a surprise that he still manages this.
The people who put him in slavery were murdered, not by him, but still…he doesn't much care for those he considers 'bad guys'. While innocents are aided, criminals will get little to no mercy. Simply put, the lives of many outweigh the life of one. This is not the case when someone important to Amon is in danger. In such a scenario, all lives, even innocent, become completely unimportant.
Yet Amon is calm, amiable and willing to listen to a peer's problems…but won't understand the problem and likely show little remorse. Not because he doesn't care, but because he's kinda socially awkward. Distant and perhaps even arrogant, Amon is left vengeful after years of torment and doesn't know how to make friends. But when family is harmed, a beserker Osiris will emerge.
Stamina Of Shu |
Gifted with the divine endurance of the Egyptian God Shu, Osiris is…immortal. He does not require food, drink, breath, or sleep to sustain himself, making him virtually tireless. He can fight for ridiculous periods of time without any rest.
This divine durability makes Amon's body capable of surviving the depths of the ocean and the vacuum of space. He can shrug off high energy blasts and explosions with no effect and could take anything up to a missile without sustaining too much damage. Toxins, poisons, and diseases do not affect him and he can survive in extreme situations. |
Speed Of Heru |
When empowered, Amon possesses Speed of Heru. He can fly and run at incredible speeds when in Earth's atmosphere and even faster while outside of it. |
Strength Of Amon |
Channeling the divine strength of the very god he was named for, Amon's strength is greatly increased. Able of effortlessly bend steel, effortlessly rip steel, punch through bricks, and lift tanks above his head, Amon's upper limits are mostly unknown, but he can lift around hundred tons. |
Wisdom Of Zehuti |
Differing from his others, this gift grants Amon direct guidance from the gods. During times of needs, their wisdom is channeled directly into his mind. He is able to easily comprehend abstract concepts and understand any language spoken, even communicating with aliens. Possessing a great degree of knowledge and perfect recall, he can complete mathematics as quickly as most computers and evaluate a complex situation rapidly.
If this enhanced knowledge fails him, he also possesses a vast bank of divine and ancient knowledge that stretches back into the far reaches of time which he can mine for if the need arises. It's as if he can tap into the 'knowledge of the gods' giving him clarity. With limited clairvoyance, Amon can make a situation into an advantage even if he isn't fully aware of the situation at hand. It's as if he can tell what is the 'right' thing to do without knowing why.
Sadly, Amon's mind is still human, while he can tap into the knowledge of Zehuti, he can't maintain all the information on his own and must actually /activate/ this ability to gain the counsel of the gods. He must mentally call upon the wisdom and then reflect. This can take quite a while depending on the information he needs.
The Wisdom Of Zehuti cannot provide Amon with knowledge or information that would ruin any given scene or plot, and can't give him information a player does not want him to know automatically. |
Power Of Aton |
The transformation from Amon to Osiris is triggered by a mystical lightning bolt from Aton, the sun god. If the bolt hits Amon or anyone from the Marvel family, a transformation will take place, either back to their mortal form or into their immortal one. If it does not hit, the transformation will not take place.
It can also be used as a weapon as well. The burst, itself, is from an alternate plane, traveling at the same speed of a typical lightning bolt. It will almost always hit its target (which is Amon) unless he moves or something moves him. If he were to dodge the bolt, which would be a simple feat for him, and let it fall on someone else it could be a potentially devastating weapon and since the bolt is magical, it would harm those who are susceptible to such things.
The mystical energy from this bolt grants Amon substantial resistance and protection against magic too. A skilled magic-user would find it nigh impossible to directly alter him, but a magician like Doctor Fate will have an easier time passing through this invulnerability. Cosmic beings like the Spectre will have no trouble using spells on him.
Another incidental feat of the bolt is it resets any damage, no matter how severe, done to Amon in his empowered or mortal form. This can be used as healing, although it would probably not be a good idea to use it in the middle of combat. Since his crippling wounds were gotten before his transformation, he can't heal them.
The mystical energies his transformation bolt leaves behind allows Amon to generate and fire off lightning or electricity from his arms, shoulders, or chest.
It is important to note that since Aton is represented by the golden sunburst, the bolt will always come from the sky on a planet, but if Amon is somehow in space and the magic word can be spoken, the bolt of lightning would come from whatever direction the sun is at. |
Courage Of Mehon |
Amon is imbued with the courage of the Egyptian serpent god Mehen, which provides Osiris with an inhuman degree of inner strength, protecting him from outside manipulation and mental domination especially from telepathic and mystical sources. His mind is nearly impenetrable. |
Combat |
Through his constant link to the wisdom of Zehuti, Amon is quickly becoming a capable combatant, though he has nearly no training whatsoever. Being guided as to how and where to hit his opponents, Amon can fight well, if awkwardly, as even information channeled directly into his mind takes a moment to process. |
Divine Advice |
Amon Tomaz is a semi-choosen champion of the Egpytian Pantheon. As such can seek out their counsel and advice in times of need, even without being empowered. Sometimes, they seek him out if the need ever arises. It does take a bit of concentration, but none can interrupt the conversation. Because it isn't telepathy.
It's an answered prayer. |
Crippled |
Due to the horrific beating he received at the hands of Intergang's thugs, Amon is actually a paraplegic. He has no use of his legs and needs a wheelchair to get around. He feels very vulnerable when at his mortal form because of this and usually stays as Osiris when he can. |
Electricity |
Strong bolts of electricity can 'fake' Amon's transformation reverting him back from Osiris. There is no real rule that decides if the bolt will work or not, but the closer it is to actual lightning, and the more mystical in nature the more likely it is to work. It is only successful when Amon is caught unaware as if unconsciously believing the gods, themselves, have just taken his power. |
Gags |
Amon must be able to clearly say 'Shazam' in order to summon the bolt that turns him into Osiris and he must be able to clearly say 'Isis' in order to summon this bolt from his body. If he is somehow unable to speak he would be stuck in whatever form he is currently at and unable to generate lightning. |
Scars |
Amon was a slave for most of his life, shipped around the world with his fellows slaves like cargo. Due to the efforts of Isis, Amon finally realized he could help the world. He's usually able to hide this, but a mention of his past or a hurtful comment from someone who doesnt know better might cause Amon to lash out with all of the anger and bitterness bottled up inside of him. The scars are still there, and he has not fully adjusted yet. |
Isis |
Amon has nothing left from his parents and barely even remembers them. Isis is the only person Amon has left and the most important person in his life. Amon is more than willing to protect her no matter the cost of anyone or himself. His devotion to his sister is blind and eternal. The normally passive young man will tear the world apart to protect her. |
Inexperienced |
Amon is new to the superhero thing, and he stays powered most of the time due to the various benefits it gives him. Unlike some of the other champions of Shazam who have had many years honing the use of their powers, Amon is brand new and tends to over exert, breaking things in the process. But he wants to help, he really does. |
Not A God? |
Osiris isn't Osiris. No, it's actually not that complicated. Amon took the name 'Osiris' as tribute to his sister. Due to his close relation to the goddess, Isis, Amon may one day become the actual Egyptian God Of Death, but not in the foreseeable future. |
