Geb

Geb is the god of the earth and is the son of Shu and husband to Nut.

Background
Geb and Nut wished to have children but Ra, king of the gods, heard a prophecy that one of their children would overthrow him. Fearing this, Ra forbade Nut to give birth on any of the three-hundred and sixty days of the year. Determined, Nut gambled with Khons for moonlight and used it to create five new days, giving birth to one child each day; this resulted in Osiris, Horus, Set, Isis, and Nephthys. As punishment for their disobedience, Ra forced Shu to keep the lovers apart.

The Red Pyramid
Geb, along with the other gods, is freed when the Rosetta Stone is destroyed. He appears before Sadie's ba in the desert of New Mexico. She delivers Nut's love letter to him. When he opens it, fireworks spring out and form Nut's face. Geb is deeply touched and in thanks tells Sadie to go to the place of the crosses (Las Cruces, New Mexico), where she will find what she needs. He also tells Sadie of the importance of sacrifice, informing her that he chose to bear Ra's curse and be separated from Nut so she may have his children.

Personality
Geb is deliberate and wise, but tends to be vague. He greatly loves his children and admires Sadie's loyalty to her father, and claims that as time goes by he only misses Nut more.

Appearance
Geb is several stories tall and made out of sand which shifts to reveal his face. It is likely that his appearance changes based on where he manifests himself.

Powers and Abilities
Geb has all the standard abilities of a god and presumably has additional abilities based around the earth.

Relationships
Nut: Despite the fact that Nut and Geb have been separated for five thousand years, their love has not diminished. They continue to long for one another and when Nut meets Sadie, she asks her to deliver a letter to Geb. When Geb later receives the letter, he is overcome with joy and gratitude for Sadie.

Trivia

 * Because the matters of the gods cannot be solved by the earth, Geb himself may not interfere with them. He also cannot interfere with his children.
