Biography of Selena Nekhet
“I don’t bring chaos. I bring correction.”
Selena Nekhet, the modern incarnation of Sekhmet, is the lioness of the Nekhet bloodline—a general without equal, a force of judgment wrapped in velvet fury. Once an elite army commander, she has since transformed into the head of the Nekhet family’s private military and protection division, an organization that operates like a fusion of Blackwater, dynastic tradition, and ancient blood ritual. In a world of gods in suits, Selena walks like war in heels.
She is precision masked in flame—disciplined, ruthless, and terrifyingly efficient. Her loyalty is absolute, but her tolerance for failure is nonexistent. She leads from the front, weapon in hand, scarred from battlefields the public never learned existed. To cross her is to challenge a lion in its den. To please her is to survive.
Selena dresses like the archetype of power: deep crimson suits, military-tailored jackets, and custom accessories adorned with lion emblems, lapis talismans, and gold-armored heels. Her presence turns silence into strategy. Her stare is an unspoken command.
Though her heart is armored, she has a notorious soft spot for Hannah Nekhet (Hathor)—her younger sister and emotional opposite. Selena protects her with a ferocity usually reserved for blood feuds, even if she doesn’t always understand her softer ways. Their bond is complicated—love expressed in silence, respect offered through vigilance.
Selena remains deeply loyal to her father, Raymond Nekhet (Ra), though their relationship is strained by legacy, fire, and unspoken expectations. She serves him like a soldier serves a sovereign. She also answers to Maya Nekhet (Ma’at)—her half-sister and niece—whose calm judgment often counters Selena’s storm. Selena envies her balance, but would die to protect her.
Inside, Selena constantly wrestles with the beast—the primal rage that threatens to override her discipline. She has burned before. Cities. Reputations. Relationships. Now she fights to stay on the edge of control—not for the world’s sake, but for her own. Because when Sekhmet breaks, kingdoms fall.
Selena Nekhet is not a strategist. She is the strike. Not a diplomat, but the reason negotiations happen. And when the gods grow arrogant, she reminds them—there is always one who answers to no one but war.
