Akhenaton
Akhenaton was a pharaoh who moved Egypt's capital to a newly-built city in Amarna and attempted to ban worship of the Egyptian gods in favour of Aten, the sun disk. He was opposed by priests of Amun-Ra, who were believed to have assassinated the pharaoh. After his death, the priests defaced Akhenaton's statues and removed his name from monuments. As punishment for his blasphemy, certain members of Akhenaton's bloodline were cursed to die at a young age by the priests of Amun-Ra. Akhenaton's son, Tutankhamen, was the first to fall victim to this curse, dying at the tender age of nineteen.

Franklin Roosevelt
Franklin Roosevelt, also referred to as F.D.R, was a former president of the United States of America. He was mentioned by Bianca di Angelo when Zoë Nightshade questions her on the identity of the current US president.

George Washington
George Washington was a demigod son of Athena and former president of the United States of America.

Howard Carter
Howard Carter was the Egyptologist famous for discovering King Tut's tomb. He is the namesake of Carter Kane.

Jean-François Champollion
Jean-François Champollion was a Frenchman who deciphered the hieroglyphics on the Rosetta Stone. In doing so, he fell into a coma for five days and became the first man outside of the House of Life to unleash its magic. This garnered the attention of the First Nome, but Champollion died before he could join the House of Life. The Chief Lector at the time, Iskandar, accepted his descendants instead for training. Champollion is the great uncle of Michel Desjardins, Iskandar's successor as Chief Lector.

Priests of Amun-Ra
The priests of Amun-Ra opposed the pharaoh Akhenaton when he attempted to outlaw worship of the Egyptian gods. They were believed to have assassinated him and were responsible for cursing members of Akhenaton's bloodline to die at a young age. Bes hated the priests because they were, according to him, full of themselves.

They created the Book of Ra and hid its three sections hoping that a worthy magician would one day find it and reawaken Ra. Vladimir Menshikov, former leader of the Eighteenth Nome in Russia, is a descendant of the priests.

Thomas Young
Thomas Young was an Englishman who proved that the Rosetta Stone's three languages all conveyed the same message.

Tutankhamen
Tutankhamen, famously known as King Tut, was the son of Egyptian pharaoh Akhenaton. He died at the age of nineteen due to a curse placed on his father's bloodline by priests of Amun-Ra. Because the nature of the curse was not known to them, modern doctors have ascribed various reasons to Tutankhamen's death, including poison and genetic disease.
