Attested sources do not provide a full cosmogonic or genealogical narrative for Rem. What is recorded in available summaries presents Rem as a fish-associated divine figure whose name (glossed as 'to weep') and reduplicated form Rem-Rem mark him as a weeper; he is described as living in a place called Rem-Rem, the 'realm of weeping.' Some accounts frame Rem as the personification or hypostatized embodiment of the tears of the sun god Ra rather than as a fully independent creator-deity. Beyond these brief notes and variant names (Rem-Rem, Remi), no extended origin myth is attested in the supplied sources.
The supplied material records Rem as a 'fish god' and gives no further consistent iconographic detail. Name variants and epithets (Rem-Rem; Remi the Weeper) emphasize his association with weeping and with water/ichthyic form, but the sources provide no description of coloration, hybrid anatomy, anthropomorphic traits, or standard cultic depiction. Therefore the only attested physical marker in the available texts is that he is a fish-associated deity.
According to the cited summaries, Rem's principal and sole attested function is that his tears fertilize the land, producing both vegetation and reptiles. Sources further state he is 'assumed to be the personification of Ra's tears,' linking this productive lachrymal role directly to Ra's mythic activity. The available material records no other powers, actions, or domains beyond this tear-mediated fertility and the association with Ra.

Am-heh is an Egyptian underworld deity described in modern summaries as a terrifying devourer who dwells in a lake of fire and threatens beings in the netherworld.

The sources treat her as a genealogical/maternal ancestor rather than an active supernatural agent.
