Ptah
Ptah is an ancient Egyptian creator diety, and historically the patron of craftsmen and architects. Depending on who you ask, he's the husband of Sekhmet and father of Nefertem, though some traditions also have him as the father of Imhotep.
While he's not as popular as some of the other gods in his pantheon (like Ra or Anubis), he is still known enough to feature in several campaign settings in some fashion.

Ra is the supreme creator god and king of legend in Osirion, he is the father of Bastet, Hathor, Maat, and Sekhmet. Thoth is his son-in-law and secretary, while Wadjet helps him in his role as the divine patron of kings. Everyday he fights the long battle at sunset against Apep and is aided by his fellow gods. If Ra wins, the sun rises the next day, if he loses, everything goes bye bye.
