Know Your Kindred – Ankh-sen-Sutekh

Name: Ankh-sen-Sutekh
Clan: Followers of Set
Generation; 8th
Embrace: 1315

Ankh-sen-Sutekh (literally meaning “She-Lives-For-Sutekh”) is a highly skilled sorceress for hire.

Having devoted her existence to exposing the flaws of civilization and bringing about the return of Set, Ankh-sen-Sutekh operates out of Alexandria, selling her magical talents to the highest bidder.  She used the money, boons and contacts from her mercenary work to help create a network of spies and assassins, spanning the entire Mediterranean.

In life, she was originally a slave working in one of the great temples of Set.  Ankh-sen-Sutekh was destined to be just another blood doll until her sire recognized her potential and Embraced her.

She spent the first part of her unlife studying Setite teachings: that civilization was a tool of Osiris against Set.  That all Setites must strive towards destroying civilization and awakening their dark god.  In addition, Ankh-sen-Sutekh was tutored in the Akhu style of religious magic practiced by her clan.

Ankh-sen-Sutekh is a small woman with black hair and intense eyes. She dresses more conservatively, unless she is involved in her magic, in which case she dresses like an Egyptian priestess of old.  Despite her small size, she radiates an almost palpable aura of power.
