Thank you to Ashley D. for her help with this one.
Once your Wizard has access to Selenopolis and can begin experimenting with the Fusion of two schools of magic, you have the choice of picking a new school to associate with. If you choose Storm, your Wizard deals with Serge, the Storm tree in the Blended Grove. Serge sends your Wizard to find a Storm Icon Maximus Voltus.
Once your pet has collected the Galvanic Wisps, you go to the Tomb of Voltus and inadvertently wake up Sutekh Thunderscales. After defeating some Tomb Raiders, Sutekh offers to help your wizard learn more about Blended magic.
Set (Egyptological: Sutekh or: Seth) is a god of deserts, storms, disorder, violence, and foreigners in ancient Egyptian religion. In Ancient Greek, the god’s name is given as Sēth. Set had a positive role where he accompanied Ra on his barque to repel Apep (Apophis), the serpent of Chaos. Set had a vital role as a reconciled combatant. He was lord of the Red Land (desert), where he was the balance to Horus’ role as lord of the Black Land (fertile land).
In the Osiris myth, the most important Egyptian myth, Set is portrayed as the usurper who murdered and mutilated his own brother, Osiris. Osiris’s sister-wife, Isis, reassembled his corpse and resurrected her dead brother-husband with the help of the goddess Nephthys. The resurrection lasted long enough to conceive his son and heir, Horus. Horus sought revenge upon Set, and many of the ancient Egyptian myths describe their conflicts.
Set is the son of Geb, the Earth, and Nut, the Sky; his siblings are Osiris, Isis, and Nephthys. He married the latter, and it has commonly been assumed that they were the parents of Anubis.
Sutekh was a powerful Osiran who desired to destroy all life in the universe so that no form of life could ever challenge his hegemony, believing his acts of destruction freed those he killed from the tyranny of hope and choice, instead delivering them with the certainty of death. He began his campaign by destroying his homeworld, Phaester Osiris, but he was imprisoned by his people and trapped inside a forcefield that paralyzed him in place inside a pyramid in Egypt until he was freed by a cult of his followers in 1911, though he was quickly banished to a time corridor by the Fourth Doctor.
After being mistaken for a god by the humans of Earth, Sutekh was worshipped by the Egyptian culture, being named the “Typhonian Beast”. Sutekh also held leadership of the Pantheon of Discord, specifically acting as the “God of Death” in his role of “god of all gods” and “father and mother and other” to the various deities in the Pantheon, with accounts claiming he evolved into his godhood after he managed to attach himself to the Doctor’s TARDIS after being banished to the Time Vortex, though the same energies that empowered him would prove to be Sutekh’s undoing when the Fifteenth Doctor separated him from the TARDIS’s protection.

Although I am well versed in Pop Culture references but I do not claim to have caught them all. Let me know your favorites in the comments and if I’ve missed one you caught, let me know so I can add it to the list.
