## Life

Sekhmet is born as the god of destruction and the sixth child of Ra.

At some point after Osiris becomes Pharaoh of Egypt, Sekhmet speaks to Seth, telling him the truth, possibly of what Osiris had done with him, his powers, and his marriage to Nephthys. While Osiris is busy with Seth, Sekhmet sneaks in and puts Osiris to sleep. She then tells Seth to throw Osiris' body into the Nile River so that Isis will see him.

Sekhmet says that Osiris planted doubt in Seth's mind about his own abilities, a kind of curse that made him doubt his own divinity, that she then heightens to mess with Seth.

After the second match of the trial between Seth and Horus, Sekhmet visits Seth, and taunts him about Anubis turning on him out of hatred in order to help Horus. When Seth interrogates her over her part in Isis and Horus' attack, Sekhmet says she needed something to provoke him. She then suggests that Seth assault Horus as revenge on Osiris.

When Seth goes to Horus' rooms and attempts to assault him, the apparent image of Sekhmet on the back of the hand mirror Hathor gave Horus begins to smile and open its eye. As things progress, the smile and eye widen.

When Seth regains his faculties and Horus is unconscious afterward, Sekhmet steps in to mock Seth for attempting to kill Horus. Seth stabs her, and nearly kills Horus, but leaves to go help Anubis. Sekhmet gets up and talks to Horus, telling him that Osiris placed a jinx on Seth, and hid it from Ra. She tells Horus that if he doesn't get rid of Osiris' jinx, then Seth will never be free of Osiris. She tells Horus that Anubis was the son of Nephthys and Osiris. Horus accuses her of trapping Nephthys in Hathor's mirror, and she avoids answering, goading Horus about it. She tells Horus that if Horus doesn't become king, Isis will raze Egypt with an army that's on its way, and that Isis would drown Egypt under the Nile to trap Seth and kill him, and take revenge on the other gods.

After Isis takes the throne, while Isis reminisces about the days when she and her siblings were together, Sekhmet appears. Sekhmet tells Isis that she's giving herself nightmares, and she needs to have a conversation with herself about it.

## Powers

Sekhmet has the ability to corrupt anything, whether it's a weapon made by Seth out of the souls of humans, or the minds of gods. She's also physically powerful, agile, and fast. She has quick-healing abilities, can withstand powerful physical attacks, and can rejuvenate lost limbs.

She is able to detect emotions in others. Despair, anger, agony, and loneliness and sadness, suffering, rage, and hatred give her life.

Sekhmet notes, "There isn't a god who knows more than I do."
