Set (VTM)

The Malkavians claim that Saulot, Malkav and Set were brothers, that they each were mystics of a sort - Malkav with the mind, Saulot with the soul (or maybe the Beast), and Set with heaven and hell and everything in between. Set was presumably in Enoch at some point, but his history there is irrelevant. The history of the Antediluvian is the history of Dynastic Egypt.

Set travelled to Egypt around 5,000 BC, and if the stories of his childer are true, then the events of Egyptian legend are true. Set had a brother of the flesh, Osiris, and two sisters, Isis and Nephthys. In addition, he had a father in Ra and ambition to rule a kingdom by assassinating his older brother, perhaps a powerful Vampire in his own right. According to legend, Set struck down Osiris, and then the king's son Horus. Taking Egypt as his own, he ruled in power - and perhaps (or perhaps not) sought to free mankind from the bonds of law imposed by Ra. Whatever the truth may be, Horus came back from death as a Mummy and sought vengeance for his father's destruction, ejecting Set from the throne of Egypt and beginning a crusade that would consume millennia.

Set disappeared from view shortly after the Crucifixion, and has not been seen in the modern era.

Set's appearance is open to debate, although it is commonly believed that he has red hair. Followers of Set claim to encounter him during their Embrace, but this may be caused by other factors.
