The jackal-god of mummification, he assisted in the rites by which a dead man was admitted to the underworld. Anubis was worshipped as the inventor of embalming and who embalmed the dead Osiris and thereby helping to preserve him that he might live again.
Anubis is portrayed as a man with the head of a jackal holding the divine sceptre carried by kings and gods; as simply a black jackal or as a dog accompanying Isis. His symbol was a black and white ox-hide splattered with blood and hanging from a pole. It's meaning is unknown.
Anubis had three important functions. He supervised the embalming of bodies. He received the mummy into the tomb and performed the Opening of the Mouth ceremony and then conducted the soul in the Field of Celestial Offerings. Most importantly though, Anubis monitored the Scales of Truth to protect the dead from deception and eternal death.
Early in Egyptian history, Anubis was a god of the dead. This role was usurped by Osiris as he rose in popularity.
The god of embalming is probably associated with the jackal due to the habits of jackals to lurk about tombs and graves. One of the reasons the early Egyptians sought to make their tombs more elaborate was to keep the bodies safe from the jackals lingering about the graves. It is only natural therefore that a god of mummification would be connected with them. By worshipping Anubis, the Egyptians hoped to invoke him to protect their deceased from jackals, and later, the natural decay that unprotected bodies endure.
Build Description:
*WARNING* This is a build for players to have fun with.
I start most games with Anubis the same way. I get Vampiric Shroud as my starter item because the (passive: Gain 10 health and mana when an enemy is killed) fits what I like for this build.
The first skills I try to max out right away are Plague of Locusts and Mummify. When you use Mummify to stun opponents and then hit them up close with Plague of Locusts you just eat their health.
*The first relic/ active I choose is Curse: it is perfect for Anubis to slow opponents because at best he is a medium range god*
I go and get XP camp and Mana camp right away. Once I have finished doing that, I go to either middle lane or go and help as support where I am needed.
Once I have enough gold to purchase my next item I go and buy Shoes of the Magi to help with movement speed and add magic power and penetration to the build.
The next item I choose to get is Warlock's Sash for the health and mana boost as well as the magic power increase.
*You could also choose Hide of the Urchin instead of Warlock's Sash for this slot*
*This build is for damage, damage, damage. We want opponents to run from us*
Now here is a tough choice I like to swap these out each match because they are such great items:
Bancroft's Talon: +100 magic power and 12% lifesteal with a (passive: Gain additional 1% magic power for each point of health missing).
Chronos' Pendant: +75 magic power +25 MP5 and 20% cooldown reduction.
*The only negative between the two is the Chronos' Pendant has no passive and gives you a little less. But that's up to you to decide which one. I like trying both out separately and sometimes both at the same time*
I like Gem of Isolation next because it adds magic power, health and mana. The passive also slows enemies when you hit them. Good luck trying to flee from Anubis when you are slowed and he has you stuck with Mummify and Grasping Hands.
*Sell Vampiric Shroud. At this point in the game it is near useless and there are much better items available*
With the money from the sale of Vampiric Shroud and gold gathering from playing purchase the Spear of Desolation. Which gives you a big boost to magic power and a boost to magical penetration. The passive is nice reducing ability cool downs when you kill opponents.
*The final relic/ active to choose is either Sanctuary or Sunder. I prefer Sanctuary as Anubis lacks any real good get away. So having the ability to not take any damage could save your life. Or you could run Sunder to tear down someone's defenses and tear them apart with your underworldly powers*
My final item I buy to cap of my build is Pythagorem's Piece. It adds more magic power, more cooldown reduction and adds a bonus 15% lifesteal. (Passive: All allies in 70 units gain magic power and lifesteal)
*All of the consumables are optional but I like running the Multi Potion and the Potion of Magical Might*
I like this build because it is a high damage dealing god coupled with lifesteal to create sustainability. I have done pretty well with this build for Anubis. Have fun!
