The Smoke Monster Identified by Briguyx

After doing some reading about Egyptian gods, I believe I have identified the smoke monster. It is an Egyptian deity called Nehebkau, which was a benevolent snake god who Egyptians believed was the guardian of the underworld and one of the original primeval gods. Nehebkau looked like a double headed snake.

Nehebkau's name means "Yoke together" or "Unite" (which of course is reminiscent of the "Lost" motto "Live together"). The god brings together the spirit of a person with it's double. Finally Nehebkau was responsible for judging people in the afterlife.
