Adding Artistic License — History

Added DiffLines:

*ArtisticLicenseHistory: The Man in the Iron Mask is supposed to have been imprisoned by a king named Philip, but the real Man in the Iron Mask lived 300 years after the last French king of that name. The Count of Saint Germain's audio biography is almost entirely fictional. His arrest by French authorities is reminiscent of the life of Alessandro Cagliostro, who was similar to the real Count of Saint Germain but whose career peaked somewhat later. The audio also claims Saint Germain was arrested on the orders of "Bonaparte" in 1778 -- when UsefulNotes/NapoleonBonaparte was nine years old.

* AmbiguouslyHuman: Although Isis being a human was supposedly the reason why Horus was so upset with her being with Osiris, a lot of her artwork portrays her with what appear to be horns and it's unknown if whether or not it was a decoration on her veil. Some depictions of Isis depict her with a cow head, but the shape of Isis's veil in the game shown throughout makes this unlikely. If she ''is'' a human, she probably isn't one in the traditional sense since it's hinted throughout the game that she's still around in some form or another.
