The founding of Osirion in [[-3470 AR]] is used by historians as the marker for the beginning of the [[Age of Destiny]]. Osirion served as the trailblazer, marking humanity's re-emergence from barbarism of the [[Age of Anguish]].<ref name="ISWG-34">{{Cite book/The Inner Sea World Guide|34}}</ref> A follower of [[Nethys]] named [[Azghaad]] united the warring tribes along the [[Sphinx River]] and became the first pharaoh, a tradition of rulership that has continued (with long interruptions) to the present day. Under the rule of successive [[God-Kings]] the land prospered and expanded, at its height ruling much of northern [[Garund]],<ref name="Gaz47">{{Cite book/Gazetteer|47}}</ref> including land ruled today by the countries of [[Geb]], [[Katapesh]], [[Nex]], [[Thuvia]], and [[Rahadoum]]. Osiriontologists often refer to the nation during its roughly 5,000-year span of pharaonic rule between its founding and the [[Kelesh]]ite takeover in [[1532 AR]] (see below) as '''Ancient Osirion'''.<ref name="ISWG-212">{{cite book/The Inner Sea World Guide|212}}</ref>

Osirian independence ended following the assassination of  Pharaoh [[Menedes XXVI]] in [[1532 AR]], which led to the overthrow of the pharaonic dynasty. The country became a [[satrapy]] of the [[Kelesh|Empire of Kelesh]].


By [[2217 AR]], a sect of [[Sarenrae]] known as the [[Cult of the Dawnflower]] was flourishing in Osirion, but the Qadiri satrapy viewed it as a threat. The cult’s leaders were driven into exile in the desert.

After 3,000 years, Osirian independence was restored in [[4609 AR]], when the Keleshite sultan was overthrown and replaced by Prince [[Khemet I]], who traced his ancestry back to the ancient pharaohs.

L'indépendance d'Osirian a pris fin après l'assassinat de Pharaon Menedes XXVI en 1532 AR, ce qui a conduit au renversement de la dynastie pharaonique. Le pays est devenu satrapy du Empire of Kelesh.

En 2217 AR, une secte de Sarenrae connue sous le nom Cult of the Dawnflower était florissante à Osirion, mais la satrapie de Qadiri l'a considérée comme une menace. Les chefs du culte ont été conduits en exil dans le désert.

En 2253 AR, le Culte a assassiné le dernier Qadiran satrap, en finissant avec son exil et menant à l'établissement d'une ligne de sultans keleshites indépendants de l'Empire. [4][5]

Après 3 000 ans, l'indépendance d'Osirian a été restaurée en [4609 AR], lorsque le sultan keleshite a été renversé et remplacé par le prince Khemet I, qui a tracé son ancêtre aux anciens pharaons.

Khemet a été remplacé par son fils Khemet II, qui a été suivi par son fils, le dirigeant actuel Khemet III.[4][5] Under his rule, parts of the country have been opened to foreign treasure hunters and researchers.[6]

Rivers

Osirion's rivers hold many dangers

Osirion could not exist without the Sphinx River and its tributaries (the Asp and the Crook). They provide a yearlong source of fresh water to this otherwise inhospitable land, and it is not surprising that the vast majority of the nation's inhabitants live along their banks. The rivers are not without danger, however, as they flood seasonally and are also home to the black-scaled crocodiles known as hetkoshu.[9]

People

Osirians are wise people who look deep into the past for answers to present troubles. Their sense of history gives them a unique perspective on the ebb and flow of power in the political landscape of the modern Inner Sea. Many folk of Osirion are of old Garundi blood, bronze-skinned, and gifted with the noble bearing of the ancient pharaohs.[10]

A nomadic offshoot of the Garundi, the Yerbira, inhabit Osirion's western desert.[11]

Religion

The most common religions are those of Abadar, Nethys, Pharasma, and the other major gods of Osirion, but the country has several unique faiths, including the twin serpent cults of Wadjet and Apep and the dung beetle Khepri, a cult for peasants.[12] Despite the efforts of the Keleshite rulers, the worship of Osirion's native beast-headed gods has continued to the present.[13] The shaven-headed Osirian priests usually wear white robes with fringed kirtles, and sometimes ornate pectorals or headscarves, veils, or metal or leather masks.[13] The churches of Sarenrae, Nethys, and Pharasma have played a particularly prominent role in Osirian history. Osirian worshippers of Irori tend to cluster in isolated communities in valleys among the Barrier Wall and Brazen Peaks, including the Temple of An-Alak in the Salt Hills, the Stepped Tower of Djedefar on the Alamein Peninsula, and the ritual center of the Monastery of Tar Kuata beyond the Footprints of Rovagug.[14]

Magic

Spellcasters in Osirion have access to some unique spells and abilities. Those practised in metamagic can convert a spell into a thanatopic spell, which can pierce wards against negative energy or use negative energy effects to destroy undead, or a threnodic spell, which can convert mind-affecting spells into effects capable of influencing or controlling undead.[15] The country's most infamous tome of necromancy are the papyrus scrolls known as the Aleh Almaktoum, the Book of the Dead, found in the collections of Osirian archmages.[16] Several uncommon spells are familiar to Osirian magicians, including boneshatter, canopic conversion, sands of time, spectral saluqi, and tomb legion.[16]
