Who are the characters' patron gods ?

We know Nefertina's patron goddess is Bastet, it's the topic of a whole episode

Ja-Kal's is not very consistant, it's a falcon and they keep alternating between saying Ra and Horus as if they were the same character... but sometimes in myths they fuse into Ra-Horakhti so they CAN be his patron gods fused as one !

Armon's is a ram, so it is natural most people think about the most known ram god, Khnum. But since Khnum has wavy horizontal horns belonging to a breed that no longer exists whereas Armon has normal ram horns like we know them nowadays, I would be inclined to think Amun is his patron god since he can sometimes be represented as a ram with circular horns. Plus, similar name lol

Rath's is much harder because there are tons of cobra gods. And a lot are goddesses and we don't know if their patron deities have to fit their gender or not needed. Renenutet ? Meretseger ? Wadjet ? The goddesses of the Ogdoad ? Plus the show doesn't always make the gods very accurate (WHY THE HELL DID THEY MAKE SEKHMET A VULTURE !?!) so maybe other gods who usually are not cobras but simply snakes like Nehebkau or Werethekau ? Or straight up other gods who would have been drastically changed for that show like Sekhmet has been ? For now I go with Werethekau, being a goddess of magic and he is a magician

Scarab may not be a mummy, he has similar powers and is beetle themed so we can suppose he has a patron god too. And there is only one beetle god in Egyptian mythology, Khepri

Arakh and his son Kimas are scorpion themed. There are a few scorpio goddesses, no male, so it could mean gender does mean nothing. The most famous and powerful one being Serket it is probably her and either because they are father and son so it is special or because Arakh is a jerk who does not see Kimas as his own person but just an extension of himself they share her as patron goddess... OR One has Serket and the other has one of the others, Sepertuenes, Ta-Bitchet, Ifset, Wepetsepu, Sefedsepu, Batcheh, Metemet-Nefertiyes, Sefet-Sefekh, Iset Hededyt, Iset Ta-Wahaet... but I will go with the first I think, less complex, more in-character from Arakh, they have the same talisman who links them to each other, and some scholars think all these goddesses are actually just other forms of Serket anyway

Can Allura fucking FIGHT oh shit she can

The great thing about a show bursting with queer characters as a normalized part of the world is that the story can have sexy tragic queer villains without it being a homophobic trope.

Diversity win! The hot card shark antique collector demon is queer! But so are most of the heroes and the Emprix that sent them there. The middle age sapphics are having a moment, and so are the situationship bis.

season 3, episode 4 of THE LEGEND OF VOX MACHINA

[ben-the-hyena]

SPEAKING OF POST MORTEM POWERS... as said, only Scarab is the known living character to have patron god-related powers, and his are even quite different from the others (not mummified, no talisman around his neck or anywhere, again a different transformation that looks more painful and a animalistic making him rip his robes and looking like he is growing into it rather than a magical-girl transformation like the others, doesn't need to say "WITH THE STRENTH OF RA" to activate it just his own thoughts, doesn't discharge nor need to recharge and can transform and detransform indefinetely, no magic weapon, and again PERHAPS the presence of the beetle tatoo/mark on his back), meaning his powers are probably coming from another source whenever that was which we will never know since the show was cancelled. And Kimas, the only minor mummy, after resurrecting is impressed by the others' powers who tell him all mummies have those and teach him how to use his, meaning Scarab aside it is obvious as day and night it is a mummy thing in that universe

Later in the show we see Ja-Kal was killed (and possibly Rath, Nefertina and Armon too) by the hand of his evil brother Arakh, who, jealous, had offered his services to Scarab, who accepted but told him he needed (in my own words) some more upgrades. After that we see him kill Ja-Kal with his scorpion powers he has as a mummy in present days

But something that bothered me... is he already had grey skin. The same grey skin he later has and all mummies are drawn with

So either it is a just an animation error and they did not bother recolor him right

Or, since his powers seemed to work like the others and not like Scarab's,

ARAKH WAS SO INSANE AND JEALOUS HE AGREED TO BE KILLED AND MUMMIFIED THEN RESURRECTED BY SCARAB TO BE POWERFUL ENOUGH TO KILL HIS BROTHER

AND SINCE WE SEE HE DOES NOT CARE FOR HIS 12 YEARS OLD SON KIMAS AND ONLY RAISED HIM TO BE YET ANOTHER WEAPON AGAINST JA-KAL AND AND KIMAS IS A MUMMY IT MEANS HE PROBABLY HAD HIM KILLED WITH HIM WHETHER HE WANTED OR NOT TO "REACH HIS POTENTIAL" THE DAY HE WOULD COME BACK TO LIFE

THAT GUY IS CRAZY
