!!The Egyptian God quartet
A quartet of [[Myth/EgyptianMythology Egyptian Gods]] who appear during the climax of 4th Grade Adventures to give them their powers. The quarter consists of Horus (the leader), then Sobek, Bastet, and Isis.
* {{Animorphism}}: Where as in [[Myth/EgyptianMythology Egyptian lore]], gods were depicted as humans with animal heads or were humans who could transform into an animal form, Horus, Sobek, and Bastet are fully anthropomorphic animals.
* FurryConfusion: Despite Bastet being a humanoid cat, she holds a normal looking cat in her arms, which isn't explained.
* GodIsFlawed: Precisely the reason why the quartet can't stop Loveless from unleashing Set and the forces of Chaos: they're too tall.
* {{Joisey}}: Horus and Isis speak with a very distinct Jersey accent.
* LionsAndTigersAndHumansOhMy: Isis is notably, the only human of the Egyptian God quartet, as the other three members are anthropomorphic animals.
* MusclesAreMeaningful: Sobek isn't designed more muscular compared to most characters in the series for no reason, it directly ties into the power he gives Santiago: super strength.
* ToothyBird: Horus can be seen grinning or talking with a perfect set of human teeth.
