	'''Anubis''', everyone's favorite doggo-headed god, is the Egyptian and some times Greek and Roman god of death, mummification, embalming, the afterlife, cemeteries, tombs, and the Underworld. Depicted as a protector of graves, Anubis was also an embalmer. Later he was replaced by Osiris in his role as lord of the underworld. One of his prominent roles was as a god who ushered souls into the afterlife. He attended the weighing scale during the weighing, in which it was determined whether a soul would be allowed to enter the realm of the dead.

	Depicted as a canine or a man with a canine head. The head was believed to be the African Golden Jackal, but some nerds did some DNA analysis and found the Jackal species is a wolf, so wolf would be more appropriate.

	As jmy-wt "He who is in the place of embalming", Anubis was associated with mummification. He was also called ḫnty zḥ-nṯr "He who presides over the god's booth", in which "booth" could refer either to the place where embalming was carried out or the pharaoh's burial chamber.

	The Opening of the Mouth ceremony involved a symbolic animation of a statue or mummy by magically opening its mouth so that it could breathe and speak. A priest wearing a wooden Anubis. There is evidence of this ritual from the Old Kingdom to the Roman Period. Special tools were used to perform the ceremony, such as a ritual adze, an arm shaped ritual censer, a spooned blade known as a peseshkaf, a serpent-head blade, and a variety of other amulets. A calf's leg was also held up to the lips painted on the coffin.

	In contrast to real wolves which are opportunistic scavengers, Anubis was a protector of graves and cemeteries. Most ancient tombs had prayers to Anubis carved on them. There was also the name of a different canine funerary god, alluded to his protecting function because the dead were usually buried on the west bank of the Nile. Anubis took other names in connection with his funerary role, such as tpy-ḏw.f "He who is upon his mountain"; keeping guard over tombs from above, and nb-t3-ḏsr "Lord of the sacred land", which designates him as a god of the desert necropolis.

	Anubis was depicted in black, a color that symbolized regeneration, life, the soil of the Nile River, and the discoloration of the corpse after embalming. Anubis is associated with his brother Wepwawet, another Egyptian god portrayed with a dog's head or in canine form, but with grey or white fur. Nerds assume that the two figures were eventually combined.

Nerds assume that the two figures were eventually combined.

	Anubis is one of the most well-known of the Egyptian gods, and is extremely popular with the [[Furry]] fandom. He is so well known that many people, when they hear the word "jackal" think of Anubis instead of any of the real animals called jackals, which the popular depiction of Anubis does not look like. This popular depiction has him look like a humanoid canine with short black fur and long thin pointy ears and often with gold markings on his body or lots of gold jewelry because black and gold ~~looks cool~~. The real animal species called jackals are not black and look pretty similar to wolves and coyotes. If you search for art of jackals on a furry website, nearly all of the results will look like Anubis rather than actual jackals. This same effect is also seen in media, as you will rarely see a jackal based creature that actually looks like a jackal, for example the [[Khenra]] race. Though this is also partly because of people just not being familiar with jackals and too lazy to look them up, as you will see in the artwork of the [[Jackalwere]], which don't look like jackals or Anubis.

	In [[Ravenloft]], Anubis is known as the god of mummification, worshipped by the people of Har'Akir and [[werejackal]]s.

In [[Ravenloft]], Anubis is known as the god of mummification, worshipped by the people of Har'Akir and [[werejackal]]s. [[Cleric]]s of Anubis who have proven themselves are granted the gift of lycanthrophy, and can dominate other werejackals.

			Basically, he's largely like all the other Historical Fantasy deities in Ravenloft and largely shoved in there because Har'Akir is part of the [[Ethnic Fantasy\|Fantasy Egypt]] cluster of the [[Demiplane of Dread]]. He is different to his [[Planescape]] counterpart in that he a) is closer to his mythological self instead of pulling duty as the gravekeeper of deities on the [[Astral Plane]], and b) he's outright evil, because ''of course'' any Death-related god in Ravenloft is going to be evil.

			As a Historical Fantasy deity, Anubis survived the transition from [[Advanced Dungeons & Dragons]] to [[Dungeons & Dragons 3rd Edition]] intact, unlike the various Ravenloft deities who were lifted from settings like the [[Forgotten Realms]], who had to be replaced with new, license-free equivalents.
