Road of Apep

== Setite Roads ==
The Followers of Set see themselves as a congregation of Set’s faithful as much as they are a clan. The majority of Setites commit themselves fully to that faith, embracing the Road of Set in their devotion to restoring their god. The Road of Set is, perhaps, one of the most clan-focused Roads; its adherents commonly view anyone not on the Road as nothing more than potential enemies or pawns.
A small group within the clan, however, follows a heretical minor Path known as the Path of Apep. Setites on the Path of Apep believe that the chaos serpent’s mark is a gift, not a curse, and that chaos should be embraced in everything they do. This view is anathema to Setites on the Road of Set, as Set himself hates chaos and its manifestations. Worse, the heretical views of the Path of Apep have come to typify how outsiders see the Followers of Set as a whole, which rankles the high priests to no end.
