Set was an Intermediate Power and the main evil of the Pharaonic pantheon, the child of Geb and Nut and a member of Ra's Ennead family.[1] He was the most active in planar affairs of his pantheon, often making and breaking alliances with other powers including the lizardfolk god Semuanya and the draconic god Tiamat. He ruled the realm of Ankhwugaht on Stygia, a burning desert in the middle of that layer's frozen wastes.[2]

Set used to be married to Nephythys, but she left him after he murdered his rival god of the dead Osiris. He never stopped sending proxies to her realm with gifts, but she seemed uninterested.[3] Set also lusted after Isis, and nursed a longstanding hatred against Osiris and his son Horus. Despite this, he stood with his fellow Pharaonic gods against chaotic threats to the multiverse like the serpent Apophis,[2] who worked to destroy the worlds Set planned to rule.[4]
