Here's a modern day take on Isis. She, along with Captain Marvel, had their own live action Saturday morning TV show back in the 70's. She also appeared in an animated form on a show called Freedom Force, as well as having a short lived DC comic.
Origin: A young science teacher, Andrea Thomas, found a magical amulet while on an archaeological dig. She learned she was heir to the "Secrets of Isis." By bearing a necklace that held the amulet, and calling out the phrase "OH MIGHTY ISIS," Andrea was transformed into Isis.
As Isis, she could "soar as the falcon soars, run with the speed of gazelles, and command all the elements of sky and earth." In order to invoke her powers, she had to recite incantations. Her most famous incantation - "Oh zephyr winds which blow on high, lift me now so I can fly" - assisted her in taking flight. She also had control of animals, fire, water, etc.
