Tiamat, The Scaled Tyrant

Overview

Tiamat, the Scaled Tyrant is the evil queen of dragons. She is a fearsome goddess of greed, envy, and hoarded wealth, and the patron of most chromatic dragons. She is the sworn enemy of The Platinum Dragon.

Appearance and symbols

The Scaled Tyrant is depicted as a massive, five-headed dragon, with each head a different colour of chromatic dragon, and her leathery wings spread poisonous clouds.

During a meeting with other gods she appeared as a less defined draconic form, although still retaining five heads that spoke in unison, radiating primordial strength.

Personality

The Scaled Tyrant, known as Tiamat among her followers, embodies an insidious blend of calculated malice and draconic majesty. Her imposing presence is both awe-inspiring and terrifying; she commands attention with each chromatic head that speaks in unison—a testament to the primordial strength she wields over realms beyond mortal comprehension. At heart, Tiamat personifies the ultimate predator—coldly strategic yet driven by an insatiable greed for power and wealth. Her lawful evil alignment underscores her belief in order through domination; every creature must know their place beneath her scaled might. Inherently envious of any who dare challenge or surpass her dominion, she harbours no forgiveness, never forgetting the slightest affront. To those who worship at her altar—particularly chromatic dragons seeking to assert their supremacy over others—she offers a path steeped in cruelty and ambition: amass wealth as your true power, exact revenge without mercy for any slight against you, and seize what you desire with relentless determination, knowing that only the strongest deserve dominion.
