Bahamut
Bahamut , The Platinum Dragon
Bahamut, the Platinum Dragon is the deity of good-aligned dragons and metallic dragons. He is a sworn enemy of Tiamat, the Scaled Tyrant, who is the queen of the chromatic dragons and his sister.
In his natural form, Bahamut was a massive dragon approximately 180 feet 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 glowed with a faint blue sheen and blue eyes.

Tenets of Faith
Bahamut accepted only clerics of good alignments. Whether they were dragons, Dragonborn, half-dragons, or other beings attracted to his philosophy, clerics of the Platinum Dragon always had to strive to take constant but subtle actions on behalf of good while trying to do as little harm in the process as possible.
Believes in the divinity of law and order, and his worshippers will not abide people breaking this order, even if it's for good reasons.
Holidays
5th Avandon - Day of Rites
Celebrated every year on the fifth of Avandon, this day is filled with trials and rites that are hosted by the church of Bahamut. Most of these contests consist of physical tests that are held in tandem with local governments to recruit guards, but it is not uncommon for there to be rites that include mock legal trials. Many people that hope to start an honourable career will use this day as a chance to prove themselves.
1st-5th Melia - High Horde’s Gifting
On the fifth day of the fifth month, people pay homage to the Platinum Dragon and how he saved our realm from Tiamat.
They celebrate this day by decorating the shrine of the platinum dragon with metallic ornamentation and anything shiny. On the first day they leave gifts under the tree to simulate the hordes of selfish dragons, and then after five days, culminating on the fifth of Melia, Bahamut's Holy Day, each representing a different metallic dragon, the gifts are then given to their intended recipient, symbolising how Bahamut saved the world from the tyranny of Tiamat.
5th Denon - Day of Appeals
This holiday is generally only observed by people within the church of Bahamut, and occurs on the fifth of Denon. On this day, members of the clergy will volunteer to assist local legal systems with whatever they are overburdened with. Generally this means helping with appeals from prisoners and their families, but sometimes Oathsworn and Honorbound members are granted permission to preside over new cases if the local courts are backed up.
