Retired Egyptian Goddess, sometimes in the form of a feline.
Protective, usually calm, caring and short tempered.
When upset or angry, she will be violent and unyielding to any.
Cautious because of mortality.
Expert in martial arts of various kinds. Carries with her a couple small daggers and sometimes a staff, however she doesnt always need weapons because of her feline attributes.
Because of her change, she will rely on these weapons more often than not.
Bastet was sometimes called bast. She was the goddess of cats. She is a cat, or has the head of a cat, but originally she had the head of a lion.
Every day the sun god Ra would travel in his ship across the sky. Every night the snake Apep tried to stop the sun god's ship on his journey through the underworld. Ra was usually won these battles. However, on stormy days, or during an eclipse, the Egyptians believed that Apep had been victorious and swallowed the sun. Bastet defended her father Ra against the snake.
Bastet was the protectorate of cats. The Ancient Egyptians had a great respect for cats since they protected the grain from mice and rats. Rats can also cause disease. Killing a cat was punishable by death. When a cat died, the family mourned it, shaving their eyebrows to mark their sadness. Cats were sometimes mummified, like people, and their mummies have been found.
Recently Bastet had undergone radical changes, retiring from her inhuman immortal life into one of age and soon death.
