At 13-Down, Set (also spelled Seth, Sutekh, Setekh) is an ancient Egyptian god, most famous for murdering his brother Osiris.

Role in myth:
- Set is Osiris's brother and Horus's uncle.
- In the Osiris myth, Set murders Osiris—often by trapping him in a coffin and later dismembering his body.
- He scatters Osiris's remains across Egypt, per 13-Down.
- Isis, Osiris's wife, searches for and reassembles the pieces so Osiris can be resurrected in the afterlife.
Usurping the throne:
- After killing Osiris, Set takes the throne of Egypt.
- Osiris and Isis's son, Horus, later challenges Set for the kingship in a long series of contests and trials.
- In most versions, Horus eventually wins and becomes the rightful king, restoring order.
