Set Animal

The Set animal has no known name (also nicknamed Leroy by Carter). It is symbolic of Set and embodies Set's cunning, strength, and evil. It is a perfect hunter and once it catches a scent, it does not stop.

Appearance
The Set animal is as big as a horse and its legs are as long as its body; it resembles a grayhound. It is muscular and unnaturally lean. Its body is covered in shiny reddish gray fur. It has a reptilian tail that forks and has triangular points at the end, resembling a squid's tentacles; its tail moves as if it has a life of its own. Its ears are oversized and stick up like a rabbit's, but are cone-shaped and curl inward; they are wider at the top than they bottom and can rotate almost three-hundred sixty degrees. Its snout is like an anteater's, round and curved. It has razor sharp teeth. Its eyes glow when it catches its prey's scent.

The Red Pyramid
The Set animal attacks the siblings and Bast at the Washington Monument at Set's request. Bast holds it off while the siblings escape to the Reagan National Airport, where it catches up with them and begins to cause chaos. Mortals mistake it for a rabid moose and security is unable to subdue it. Carter battles it and names it Leroy before stuffing it into his locker in the Duat.
