Selket is a raven-haired Nakhti character in Unreal Championship 2: The Liandri Conflict, where she is 26. Selket was born a princess of the Jehfar family, but fights in the Nakhti Ascension Rites to become Empress. In reality however, wealth is her main motive. Selket wears traditional Nakhti armor, which is golden armor with aquamarine details. She dual-wields Nakhti Swords and a set of Nakhti Scorpions.

After her death she is resurrected as Necris and wears black leather clothing, as seen worn by other Necris. Her hair is now purple. She becomes Empress by marrying Anubis.

Selket is voiced by Stephanie Young.

Selket is a princess of the Jehfar family, and a distant cousin to Anubis. Her desire to be Empress has eclipsed all other minor concerns like ethics and morality. Selket holds little respect for the animal totem-religion of the Nakhti people. She prefers instead the lucrative opportunities that the Liandri Mining Corporation can provide her and her future empire.

Selket's overwhelming desire to be Empress led her to betray her people and herself. Unable to believe Anubis' love for her was real, she forced him into a fight to the death in the finals of the Ascension Rites. After striking the killing blow, the newly crowned Emperor Anubis was blinded by grief at her loss. He agreed to serve the Liandri in order to have her back, and in doing so betrayed everything he held dear. After the Necris rejuvenation process, Selket is back by Anubis' side as his Empress, but their awkward relationship will take much longer to heal.

Trivia
