I'm Very Normal about Set as a character. ⚡️GODSLAVE⚡️ is an action/urban fantasy story, featuring a girl's journey into Egyptian mythology in the modern day. Live on kickstarter!

...I keep wanting to wait and gather a photoset to accompany this random off-model doodle of Set that I've been sitting on, but… ah well, here he is for the dashboard. I haven't quite forgotten how to draw him yet lmao

Also for anyone who missed it, the DEITIES Site has a new Changes & Improvements page now, with more to come gradually -- details in this earlier update!

"You can hear my voice in the Storm.

You can feel my touch in the Wind.

You can taste my lust for life in the Waves.

Desert is not the barren land you think it is. It's alive and pulsing, something not many can see. Just as the Sea, you have to dive under the surface to find its true essence.

But are you willing to?

Are you willing to look me in the eyes and stay still, as I barren my teeth and stare through your soul, ready to devour you?

Or would you rather run away once again, frightened and unchanged?

You chose to stay. Wise choice.

I will offer you shelter in my Oasis.

I will guard you against all that is evil.

I will teach you unprecedented defiance.

I will show you unbearable horrors.

I will tell you unfathomable truths.

And know this: if your Path is meant to be a path of service, you'll serve us, somehow."

Just wanted to post a little digital devotion today, here's some hymns I use often!

#1

I praise You Who controlled Your anger,

You Whose scepter sits above Nut with Akhu.

I praise You, great Set.

King of terror over heaven,

Terrifying and awesome, threatening,

Hidden but irresistible.

Hater of isfet, it is You that I praise.

#2

Storm Lord,

Pilot Who sails over the evil apep's back,

Captain of the Secret Boat!

You Who bind apep, bring me a boat,

Make me a strong rope so I can sail forth.

#3

Hail Set, son of Nut,

great of strength in the Boat of Millions of Years;

Nut is above You,

Get is under Your feet,

What you command comes to pass.

Overthrower in the Boat of Millions of Years, great in terror,

Grant me a happy life following Your Ka.

Dua Sutekh, Adversary of Injustice, Destroyer of Is/fet, Defender of the Scorned, Protector of the Marginalized, Bring Thy Furied Storm Upon Evildoers, Bring Thy Blade Upon Ap/ep's Throat, Adversarial Setesh, Break The Heads Of Ap/ep's Kin, Let Ap/ep's Kin See Your Children, And Tremble In Fear Before Us, Dua Sutekh! -------------------- Devotional Art for Set, based on my workings and experiences with him as the archetype of Adversary, inspired by my times worshipping him in both a Kemetic Polytheist and Theistic Satanist/LHP lens. As a fem queer person, Set is extremely important to me. The phrase "Ap/ep's kin" in the prayer above is referring to people who spread anti-queer rhetoric, especially the ones in power. Set teaches me to take back my own power from those who wish to see me and people like me crumble. When I break, it is Sutekh who mends my pieces.

[avenetjer]

Great One who rattles the sky, I honor you!

Strong One whose voice I heard from within the sandstorms of my mind, I call to you.

Mighty One who stands at the front of the barque as I row & row towards the light, I praise you.

(Fearless One who is strong enough to do what it takes, I admire you.)

May I remember You in the faces of strangers whom others so easily shun & misunderstood. May I remember You as I wander & leave what is familiar.

May I remember You in the stretch & the scrapes of falling on unexplored terrains.

(May I remember Your un-judging offer of hand; the counsel that yes, the desert tends to do that.)

But may I also remember the ease in swinging staffs & the power coursing through veins, Strongest of Gods. May I remember the amusement & the joy, even, in taking life with a stride. The laugh that turns frowns upside down.

(May You love me, as I love You.)

a lot of people say that seth is the zeus of the ennead and all i can say to that is atleast he pulles out on time.

Excerpts from a post where people argued what Set is

[deitiesofduat]

[02] -- SET

✦ TITLE: Lord Set -- The God of Chaos, Deserts, Storms, Foreigners, and Violence

✦ SACRED ANIMAL: The Set Animal (Sha Animal) ✦ DIVINE WEAPON: The Was Scepter (including Spear form) ✦ NOTABLE EPITHETS: "Lord of the Desert; Ruler of the Red Lands; He of Great Strength; He Who Makes The Sky Tremble" ✦ PROFILE: https://deitiesproject.com/portfolio/set/

----------

Lord Set is the second-born of the royal children of Nut and Geb. He is the husband of Nephthys, and the father of Anubis.

Known for his mastery in combat and demon-slaying, Set's reputation was damaged by his misdeeds against the pantheon -- yet the notorious chaos god seems to revel in his infamy. Dismissing any past regrets, he displays his informal and crude attitude with friend and foe alike.

DEITIES x OC_TOBER -- Deity Profiles [Full Character Lineup]

----------

Okay now Set can have his moment to shine ✨

Set remains as the main character of DEITIES's main story, my own attempt at exploring one of the most vilified and multi-faceted gods in the mythology.

Though with my recent change in scope, he's been taking a little less spotlight while I've been developing others from the cast. Even then, I still develop Set offline with friends and he's been fleshed out quite a bit behind the scenes, so it'll be nice to revisit the big red chaos god in the future.

Fun… facts? But everything seems to be in excess with Set’s character, at least in DEITIES. Not that I even planned for it this way, but:

He’s the most adept with Transformation magic (30+ Animal forms, and several states of being).

He’s skilled with wielding a variety of other weapons -- though he favors staffs and blade polearms.

He has one of the highest body counts -- both in the traditional sense of who he’s killed (with Sekhmet likely exceeding this) + the amount of demons he’s slain over millennia; and as a euphemism for his various partners and flings.

He has the most associated songs on the project’s Spotify, including a 100 track masterlist, and... /goes to count-- I think 9 other separate and shared playlists.

He probably has the most featured artwork of the main cast thus far, so this took a while to narrow down lmao--

He has several additional but unlisted domains that include Warfare, Oases, Masculinity, and -- ahem -- Sexuality and Sexual Pleasure. I just had to hard cap him at the 5 up there, or it would have looked a bit ridiculous on his profile ​​💦

[looking-for-lost-stars]

what are you grateful for? - Set to Boe. (They're trying to fight sad boy hours.)

PROMPTS FOR DEEP CONVERSATIONS

Boe paused to think for a moment, "W-w-well I'm g-g-grateful for y-y-you. And N-n-najma." And everything Setesh has provided for them. The relative safety, the regular meals, the companionship.

[spiritofhyena]

Since you have that question thing on deities/daemons/angels you've worked with, do you have any experiences with Set? He's very fascinating to me as well as his myths and I'd love to hear your experiences with him!

Yes! It was only for a short time but I had some interactions with Set when I first started out. And I have nothing but good words about him!

Of course, I am speaking only from *my experience* so what I say it's not universal for other people.

Set has a nice energy, personality-wise maybe could feel a bit stern sometimes but he's really nice, he just talked to me in a very direct manner, no "sweetening the pill". If I did a dumb thing bc I was inexperienced and ended up with consequences, he'd just be like "idiot" but then explain to me what I should have done and how I could fix it.

The myths involving him are interesting, I agree with you! And I think they represent well his chaotic being.

What else could I say about him? Hmm...

I usually compare him with the Tower major Arcana of tarots as both are about meaningful chaos and destruction, as both the card and Set's energy are about tearing down things to build them up in a new way.
