DEITIES x OC_TOBER -- Deity Profiles [Full Character Lineup]
----------
We're starting the last week of this OC_tober run with one more feline goddess, Pakhet!
She's one of the more obscure deities from the Egyptian pantheon, and I've seen some commentary that suggests she wasn't really a separate entity, but equated with other feline goddesses. Still, I managed to find enough information about Pakhet to justify making her own character, and I'm glad I could do so -- even if I hadn't been sure how to develop her at first.
Much like other deities from the past week like Wepwawet and Montu, Pakhet had been a part of the supporting cast before getting most of her development offline with friends, including fleshing out her personality and giving her a well-needed design revamp.
I think that covers the most relevant fun facts about Pakhet’s character. Aside from that, I can reconfirm I have another just-for-fun ship between her and my friend's deity OC, Lord Kairu, who was featured from that one post with them a while ago. KaiPak's rough first impressions vary depending on the AU, but they inevitably grow on each other and develop mutual respect and affection. Doesn't stop Pakhet from fussing over the big panther's antics, but it's out of love.
