Mojito's Ennead is the adaptation of the mythological conflict between Set and Osiris, and later, between Set and Horus. Please be aware of the following content warnings, as well as their importance in his character's context.

- Sexual abuse. Integral to the story is the sexual Set by his brother, Osiris AND the sexual abuse of Horus, by Set. One of the themes of the mythological conflict between Horus and Set is the degradation of a rival. In the comic, Set is abused by Osiris and later, he attempts to abuse Horus; in Egyptian myth, this violence is not only an exertion of dominance and superiority, it involves the concept of homosexual desire. A focal point, regarding one of Set's major characteristics, is his forceful and indiscriminate sexuality. Of note, is the fact that ancient Egypt did not consider the mythological Set villainous for his homosexual interactions, but for the subjugation/degradation of others using sex as a vehicle.

The details of his sexual abuse are ones that I can easily avoid mentioning in most threads. However, the consequences and ramifications of Set's abuse by Osiris are deeply embedded in many aspects of his character, including his self-worth, identity issues, and character psychology.

- Mass murder & slavery. Though he had experienced betrayal and abuse, Set chose to lash out at the world instead of asking for help. After killing Osiris, he took the throne of Egypt and both induced and allowed the land to fall into moral decay. Set was directly responsible for the the mass deaths of women and children, as well as their mistreatment at the hands of slavers. He, himself, was known to pursue women who resembled his sister, Isis, and boy-children who reminded him of his own son, Anubis, bringing them to his temple to force them to fight in bloodsports, torture them, and ultimately kill them when he pleased. Like his experience of sexual assault, the evil deeds he did are a matter he must atone for -- and he does seek to, not for forgiveness, but because it is something he must do.

This topic is also one that I can avoid, however I will not overlook it -- I'm not in the business of ignoring unsavory aspects of a character simply because they are also a meow meow.

- Pseudo-incest. The gods are not biologically related, nor do they consider their relationship as family as a source of superiority/inferiority (i.e. Set is not superior to Anubis, because he is his father; nor is Ra superior to Osiris, as his great-grandmother). An important element of the conflict between the Ennead -- and particular to Osiris, Isis, Nephthys and Set -- is the idea that gods are not family in the way humans are. The children of the gods are not their actual children, they are their equals and peers. Marriage is of no real use, nor does it have any substance, between two gods -- not in the way it would to humans. Humans are bound by their mortality, where gods are not. Set is canonically married to his sister-god, Nephthys, he has coveted Isis, and is coveted in turn by Osiris.

Incestual allusions between gods is common throughout most, if not all, mythology. It is fairly common to describe the other gods with terms such as "wife" and "sister" in the same breath, as both are true and the canon actually explores the problems with gods trying to play house as the humans do. I feel this is a very important element to explore, in terms of what has caused much of the grief in the Ennead.

- Suicide, suicidal ideation. Set is mentally fragile, as the result of doubts sown (read: literally Cursed) into his heart and soul. He is also very prideful, and seeks to save face before his beloved son and wife, a great number of times; in those moments, he would rather die than allow the secret of his sexual assault be exposed to the other gods AND has cited that, without Anubis remembering his promise, he will have a hard time surviving the weight of his sins and the crushing grief he feels. He has also genuinely tried to end his own life, rather than be taken away to Duat by Osiris.

- Eating disorder. While unconfirmed, it could be implied that Set has an eating disorder. This is not the result of anything more than the fact that, as a god, he did not need to eat, and as a demigod, his body requires some form of additional nutrients. He has refused food, citing that he does not like the way it "moves in his body"; this could be as simple as being unused to the feeling of mortality, or as insidious as trauma relating the idea of foreign bodies/sensations (i.e. the flower-vine Osiris implanted into his body) within him. I play him as a vegan, where he does not eat animal meat or animal byproducts (eg. milk, eggs)!

- Alcoholism, drug abuse & hedonism. Set also deals with the trauma affiliated with his sexual abuse via excessive drinking (often, the only thing he imbues at times is wine), drug abuse via incense, and hedonism. Set is considered the Egyptian god of chaos and confusion, which includes his idealized sexual allure to many individuals -- no matter the gender.

I have no problems with any of these things being addressed and explored in-character, as they're all important variables in regards to his character. I have no intention of forcing fellow players into situations where they are confronted, or forced to play with the connotations unexpectedly.
