See above.

Weight:

Description:
It’s hard to even call Set a wolf. His build is most like a Pharaoh Hound, with skinny, long legs and a narrow body, betraying his underlying strength. His tail is thin and flexible, pointed with two prongs. His ears are bizarrely long and squared off at the tips. At the bridge of his snout it begins to slope downward, with a nose reduced to slits. His fur is obscenely short and black, however the skin showing through gives him a reddish hue. The deadly claws of his feet are all cracked and too long for comfort.
It appears Set, at least at one point, cared about his appearance. Pitch black kohl lines his eyes, although most of it is smeared and faded. Often times he will wear jewelry to resemble the pharaohs of old; Gold and blue bracelets, anklets, collars, a gold bracer for his tail, ankhs, and a tattered red-and-black striped headdress.
History:
The ancient land of Kemet was once a land divided; Lower Kemet was fiercely devoted to Horus, and the Upper to the desert god known to them as Set. They offered humans, animals, anything they could get their hands on as a sacrifice to their beloved deities. In return, they received their respective god’s protection and blessing during war and hunting seasons. The two gods managed to tolerate one another, and all was at peace for a time.
This all changed one blaringly hot day when Osiris saw it fit to come to Kemet. Now, Osiris was the father of Horus, and quite the powerful being. With his arrival he brought to the Kemetians the knowledge of harvesting and taming various creatures; he was quickly rising in popularity, both in the Upper and Lower kingdoms. Set, then a clear-headed being, soon boiled over with jealousy. He ripped Osiris to pieces, forever dooming his brother god to the underworld.
Upon hearing the news, Horus, along with most of Kemet, was furious. He traveled to Set’s kingdom, challenging the god to a fight. Set, being certain of his victory, agreed. They fought under the blazing glare of the sun, Horus loosing an eye somewhere along the line. As the battle wore on, Horus began getting the upper hand; ultimately, Set was defeated, locked away under guard of another goddess.
Millennia passed, and Set could only watch as Horus demonized him. His followers became a small cult tucked away in his old land, which Horus had since then conquered. As it so often happened, the other god became bored with his kingdom, abandoning it. Set was by all accounts free, but he had changed.
The countless centuries had taken their toll on the deity; his once benevolent behavior was now eroded away, leaving him a mad, babbling husk of what he once was. The very nature of his powers had changed, deviating into chaos itself.

Wepwawet - Son
Personality:
Set always seems distant; if and when you do finally get him to converse, his comments are usually limited to babble, hardly getting his point across. That is, of course, unless you begin wearing down his short temper, as he isn’t shy of his force. Empathy is a foreign aspect to him; he’s much more concerned with his own entertainment and benefit. It’s quite hard to predict what he might do next, as he seems to be a master at acting and masking his intentions. He might be on one side of an argument one moment and the other the next. He enjoys egging people on during fights. He’s very often deceptive of others; he likes stirring the pot and causing mayhem, and will often do so merely out of boredom. He loves drama, especially when he is the underlying cause of it. He’s lost his trust in other gods and will often avoid them.
Likes:
Tragedy
Violence
Heat
Water
Abusing his power
Power in general
Beaches, deserts, oases, anywhere else sandy
Mortals (he’s quite fascinated by them, actually)
Dislikes:
Monotony
Disrespect
Cold weather
Snow, sleet, etc.
Most other gods
Powers:
Shapeshifting;
Set, like most gods, can change his form to quite a few other creatures. He’s most often in his canid form, but he’s known to take the shape of a man/anthropomorph or bull on occasion. Generally he stays in the realm of desert-dwelling or domesticated creatures. He almost always retains his darker coloration.
Illusion;
Set can, quite literally, get inside one’s head, making one see or hear things that simply aren’t there, possibly driving them to insanity in the process. It can affect multiple beings, but is much more potent when used on only one. He can use it for highly elongated periods of time. This could also be used simply to put thoughts in someone’s head or scare them away.
Wind
Set can control wind to a limited extent, usually being able to make whirlwind-like gusts of air for short periods of time. Nothing too powerful, just enough to quick up a lot of dust or scatter things about.
Weaknesses:
The cold. Being used to the desert lands like Kemet, he gets cold rather easily. It tends to make him ill-at-ease.
Distractions. Set is quite scatterbrained, and easily diverted. He has very limited foresight most of the time.
