Sutekh as a God of dragons

Through my research into Sutekh and other Gods who share his dominion, I have come to a realization that I find very fascinating.

In Egyptian mythology, "dragons" as we know them today don't show up, but "dragon" has always been a broad term, and is usually equivocated to a serpent, drake, large reptile and fire breather. See where I'm going?

Sutekh no doubt has association with serpents, as he is the God that strikes down a//pe//p every night.

Sutekh is also a deity of chaos, violent and destructive as he is protective and strong, aspects that are most common within western mythos containing dragons. Most stories about the four legged, winged dragons involve fighting them, as Seth fights the serpent.

A little aside, Ares shares similarities with Sutekh with the addition of being a God of dragons, and the two religions have mingled fairly often and share the primary color association of red.

Another really interesting association with dragons is Akhekh, a creature with a long serpentine body and four legs, sometimes with features of an antelope

This being is also an aspect of Sutekh, and is named a Typhonic Beast, in association with the Greek monster Typhon, a massive draconic beast.

Thrawn: [*chillin' on the floor in his office with art holos on*]

Karyn: How long does he stay like this?

Eli: Longest was nine hours once.

Karyn: Kriff- does he take breaks to go eat?

Eli: Pfft. No. That's why I throw a few ration bars at him every few hours.

Karyn: And he doesn't mind you throwing them at him? I've seen your arm.

Eli: *Takes a bar out of his pocket* watch.

Eli: *Fangs it at Thrawn's head*

Thrawn, without coming out of his trance: *catches it*

Karyn: Stars-

Eli: See? Fine.

Thrawn, still sort of out of it: Throw it harder next time.

Eli: Yes, sir.

Karyn: HARDER??

Thrawn: It's how I remember I have a body

Karyn: oH-

Can we talk about how extra Thrawn is for getting a decal commissioned on an I-Class Star Destroyer?

This baby is 1600 metres long.

Was this on the Empire's budget? Do you think some poor sod had to explain to the expenses department that no sir this is this isn't a mistake. Yes sir it was commissioned by The Grand Admiral. Yes sir we told him not to. No sir he didn't listen.
