The myth

There is no lightning dragon in Egyptian mythology; this creature belongs to MYTHENOR. But the idea that storms have an owner is very Egyptian. Set was the god of war, chaos and storms, called Lord of the Desert, tied to foreign lands and the color red. Curiously, he was also the hero who, at the prow of the sun's barque, resisted the hypnotic stare of Apophis and drove him off with a great spear. Cloudy days and storms were seen as signs that the serpent of chaos was gaining ground.

Why it has this power

A common level 4 Dragon of Thunder with 1300 ATK and only 900 DEF: a quick, fragile strike, like dry lightning. Wisp beats Feather in the Celestial Cycle and Crown beats Scarab in the Earthly Cycle, each victory adding +500 to the clash.

Did you know

Set, god of storms and chaos, was at the same time the defender of Ra's barque against Apophis.
