call me a purist, but ancient Egypt != Persia.
I think Persia would be more Zoroastrianism - though some of those aspects are incorporated into arcosephale. There was actually a fairly decent persia mod for dom 2.
If you want to do an ancient egypt, have it be egyptian - all animal headed sacreds and pharoahs or son of the sun for pretenders.

No your right, I just want to see race of cat people. I think they would have fit Egypt better than lizards, but since egypt is taken Persia was the next best.
Making the Persians Cat people is no less arbtrary than having the egyptians as lizard men. None of the major egytian gods were lizards withthe possible excetion of SET. Apep was an egyptian demon, and a serpent. It was never worshipped however.
Anyway in D&D there was the Persian Cat people where they called Rakasha ? that was the inspiration for the suggestion.
