Setna

Khaemweset (c. 1285 BCE – c. 1225 BCE), also called Setna, was a son of the pharaoh Ramesses II. In 38 BCE, while the Egyptian Hidden One Bayek of Siwa searched for a way to lift the Curse of the Pharaohs that plagued Thebes, he entered a simulation where he appeared to enter Heb Sed and met Setna's ba, which roamed the land in an attempt to appease his father's spirit.

As one of Ramesses' many sons, even after death, Setna found himself pressured to follow in his father's footsteps and become a warrior. When Bayek visited his ba in 38 BCE, Setna was preparing for a series of challenges laid out for him. Revealing to Bayek that he sought to be a poet rather than a warrior, Setna agreed to let the Hidden One complete the challenges on his behalf so that he might confront Ramesses with his post-death choices. After Bayek beat the trials, Setna confronted his father and proclaimed his intention to become a poet. At this, Ramesses acquiesced and granted his son's ba leave of Heb Sed.Assassin's Creed: Origins – The Curse of the Pharaohs – Follower or Leader
