From the book

Set is the god of the underworld in Nubia and Quaddan. He is often shown as a serpent and may be one face of Tiamat, the evil goddess of the Naga. Like her, he has mastered black magic and high magic. The servants who act for him on earth are usually evil priests, necromancers and wizards, and his followers commonly carry out human sacrifice and foul necromantic rites of every kind. The feared Serpent Cult of Acheron is devoted to him.
