Set is the Egyptian god of death, storms, and chaos. Set was summoned by Princess Ahmanet before the assassination of Menehptre. Set gave her the Dagger of Set, which would give Set corporeal form in exchange for giving Ahmanet political power. Ahmanet used the Dagger to assassinate her family; however, before Ahmanet could complete the pact, her plan was found out and she was mummified alive, leaving Set without form.
In 2017, both Ahmanet and the Dagger of Set reemerged. Ahmanet chose Nick Morton as her new sacrifice to Set, and she killed Morton's love interest Jennifer Halsey in order to force him to comply. However, Morton simply stabbed himself with the Dagger, fusing himself with Set, before using Set's powers to defeat Ahmanet.
Biography
Summoned
In 2983 B.C., Princess Ahmanet was promised by her father King Menehptre that she would be queen after his death. However, Menehptre later bore a son, which left Ahmanet, a woman, ineligible to claim the throne. A vengeful Ahmanet snuck into her parents' bedroom and murdered them one-by-one.[1]
Ahmanet used her family's blood to summon Set, which left Ahmanet cursed but incredibly powerful, hoping to find Set a mortal man to inhabit in order to rule the world. Ahmanet attempted to sacrifice her lover to Set using the Dagger of Set; however, the temple priests found out about Ahmanet's actions, slew her lover, and mummified her alive, leaving Ahmanet for dead for 5000 years.[1]
Reappearance
In 2017, Ahmanet's sarcophagus was inadvertently discovered by Nick Morton. Morton and his team retrieved Ahmanet's sarcophagus, intending to take it to London. However, the curse that Set had placed on Ahmanet allowed her to escape her captors, leaving Ahmanet to roam free again.[1]
Duel in the Crossrail
Ahmanet attempted to sacrifice Nick Morton to Set; however, Morton used the Dagger of Set on himself, fusing himself with the god. Morton used Set's power to resurrect Jennifer Halsey and Chris Vail, both of whom had been killed by Ahmanet, before leaving with Vail to go on more adventures.[1]
