In the story "The Red Pyramid" by Rick Riordan, the character encounters a shabti, a clay figurine that has come to life. This shabti humorously introduces himself as Doughboy, which he finds disrespectful, opting instead for a more grandiose title: Supreme-Force-Who-Crushes-His-Enemies. This playful interaction showcases the character's unique personality and the light-hearted tone of the narrative.
The shabti’s transformation from an inanimate object into a living being adds an intriguing element to the plot. Through his dialogue, Riordan illustrates themes of identity and self-perception, as the shabti grapples with the name given to him by his master. This sets the stage for an adventure filled with quirky characters and magical elements that engage readers of all ages.
