Serqet

Serqet is the goddess of scorpions.

Background
A lot is known of Serqet's life during Ancient Egypt, and it is known that she attended Osiris's birthday party. Serqet is the goddess of scorpions.

The Red Pyramid
Serqet and Bast briefly engage in battle in Central Park. She appears to defeat Bast, but the cat goddess turns into Muffin and escapes into the Duat. She later engages in combat with Zia Rashid in a museum, who manages to expel Serqet from her host. Serqet, however, was able to reform for an unknown reason.

The Serpent's Shadow
Serqet appears before Carter, when he fused with Horus, calling all the gods to fight Apophis. When Carter order the gods to aid him, Serqet states that she will only serve the strong, and asks Carter is he strong. Carter then moves instantly before Serqet and slashes her in half, after which she reforms from a pile of sand. Nekhbet nodds and mutters that Carter is strong after all.

Personality
She is very aggressive and loyal to Set in The Red Pyramid. It is shown that she only follows the strong.

Appearance
She is described to be a woman with pale skin that looks like chiton. She wore brown robes and had gold jewlery around her hands and neck. She wore a live supersize scorpion on her head. Her eyes were beady black, and her long, dark hair was unaturally thick, as if made out of millions of bug antennae. Her hair was cut Egyptian style. When she opens her mouth, sideways mandibles snapped and retracted outside her regular teeth.

Powers and Abilities
She has power over scorpions, able to summon swarms of them. She is also shown to have the abilities of a scorpion, such as a large scorpion tail and the power to change in to a huge one.
