Other Factions

Where the Setites have found masks of Set operating in other religions, they have usually had few problems in converting new members to their cause and later enlightening them in the use of the Dark God’s power. In some cases though, while the mask may be present, new converts have a hard time swallowing the mystical trappings of rites pertaining to another religion. This is exactly what happened with the Setites of Scandinavia.

The followers of the Midgard Serpent readily accepted that their deity could take multiple forms across the world. However, the idea of practicing Egyptian rites, in the form of Akhu, was a completely alien concept to them. No matter how much the Egyptian Setites tried to show their new brothers and sisters that the power of the Dark God was truly theirs for the taking, it only resulted in distancing the two factions of the Setite community. The Scandinavians retreated into their own methods but subsequently had very little success with them. If they had taken the leap of faith and embraced the alien culture that the Egyptians offered them, maybe they would have been able to make more tangible gains in the region. It might yet prove to be of aid to their cause, if any of the

Scandinavians takes the necessary steps, or even develop their own sorcery. To date however, none have done so.
