A Goa'uld, wife of Osiris. Sealed by Ra in a canopic jar thousands of years ago, she never came out alive. Her companion, on the other hand, escaped.
Overview
In Egyptian mythology, Isis brings Osiris back to life. In Stargate, she and Osiris are two Goa'uld who betrayed Ra. To punish them, he sealed them in canopic jars as bare symbiotes.
Worth knowing
When the two jars are found on Earth, Isis's holds nothing but a dead symbiote. Osiris's does not: he takes Sarah Gardner, Daniel's former girlfriend, as a host.
