3000 years ago the bodyguards
(Med-Jai) of Pharaoh Seti I
cursed the High Priest of Osiris
Imhotep with the Hom Dai, the
worst of all Egyptian curses.
Since then the descendents of
those men have been charged with
guarding that secret in
Hamunaptra, the City of the
Dead. Now, in the1920's, Med-Jai
leader, Ardeth Bay finds himself
at the brink of disaster when
Evelyn Carnahan reads from the
Black Book of the Dead, reviving
The One Who Shall Not Be Named.
The mysterious and stern leader
warned Evy, Rick and the others
to leave the city. But they
continued anyway. Ardeth and his
men tried to rid the world of
the creature on their own but it
took his helping Rick, Evy and
Jonathan to stop Imhotep from
his evil plans. Only
problem with his role in
"The Mummy"- not
enough of him! Yes, he does keep
Rick from getting his behind
kicked in Cairo, and let him run
all alone in the dessert, and
even sacrificed himself (or so
we thought!) so Rick and Jon
could get to Evy. |
