Bahamut

Physical Description

General Physical Condition

Bahamut's natural form is that of a platinum dragon, said by many to be the only one of his kind.   In his natural form, Bahamut is a massive dragon approximately 180 feet (55 meters) long, with a tail the same length as his body, with platinum scales tougher than any shield (said by some to be virtually indestructible) that glows with a faint blue sheen, and blue eyes, the exact color of which is hard to specify and may depend on Bahamut's mood.   When he wishes to wander the mortal world, he usually takes the appearance of an old human or demihuman wizard dressed in peasant robes accompanied by seven canaries or other songbirds. Some sages believe Bahamut uses this humanoid guise to not frighten non-dragon beings. They also believe that while Bahamut is fond of his old man guise, he has other guises as well. Other recorded guises included that of a prince with a carriage drawn by seven horses, an urchin accompanied by seven friends, a beggar followed by seven dogs, a humble fisher or a young monk who bear the title of the "Grandmaster of Flowers".

Mental characteristics

Personal history

When Io was split in two, Bahamut and his sister, Tiamat were formed from opposite aspects of the creator. Bahamut was born from the lighter aspects and represents not only literal light, but also the light that resides in our hearts and souls. Emotions like love, motivation, and joy are often considered to be a part of Bahamut's domain.   After the banishment of his sister, Tiamat, Bahamut disappears as well. Many of his followers travel the world in the hopes that one day they may run into their selfless god.

Social

Social Aptitude

Bahamut is stern and very disapproving of evil. He accepts no excuses for evil acts, and doesn't tolerate even minor offenses by evil creatures.    In spite of his stance, he is also considered one of the most compassionate beings in the multiverse. He has limitless empathy for the downtrodden, the dispossessed, and the helpless. He usually prefers to polymorph those who have offended him instead of killing them, although it is also said that Bahamut loathes to sully himself with the blood of evil creatures.   He valued wisdom, knowledge, prophecies, and songs instead.    Bahamut also likes to prove the strength and worthiness of his followers by battling against them in his dragon form, halting the combat when his followers are injured or when they overcome him. However, he is prone to get carried away by his zeal, and has powerful healers on hand in case he had gravely injures one of his followers in those battles.
