Description[edit]

Physical[edit]

• Vaguely draconic features, but overall foremost a focus on fantastical shapes and visuals. Colors just dancing off of him and whatnot, it's clear that he's a square peg in this round hole of reality. IMMENSE, like I'm talking about it's possible he's hidden in a mountain range somewhere but he's filling a valley or one of the mountains or whatever.
• Later, a female elf. Probably extra mousey just to be funny.
  • So like the way I figure we could just explain as 'he's a Maker' and leave it at that, but for internal/more indepth explanation I imagine it's something like Hina's still around because she has a tether to a physical object (Koray). Cutting that tether will have her enter reincarnation, and trying to tether her to two objects will damage if not outright destroy her soul (she might know from experience with playing around with stuff). Bahamut may not be tethered, it may just be his doesn't enter reincarnation (it could be he begins to be born again as a new god, but that takes centuries which he doesn't have if he wants to save the planet), and/or Bahamut's soul can survive the strain because it's made of the life-stuff of the universe. Just some ideas.

Mental[edit]

• Asleep, or at least not functioning on a mortal level during the first arc. He has some Aspects that are leading the dragons and elves each, but they're less than fragments of his full consciousness. Awakens when Corvus strikes him, but too little too late and is killed. Second arc, he's trying to get back in the swing of mortal things, regather his aspects to at least follow if not merge with him. Third arc he might set up a utopia, which of course may become a target for well, everything.

Musical[edit]

• Mm...Probably some kind of weird traditional/tribal/world music. Definitely very outside the sounds of normal modern Western mainstream music. Again, like Andreas, it may remix with the standard 'elf area' music in the second arc.

Playstyle[edit]

Honestly, I don't think Bahamut should be playable (until the third arc, at least). The second arc should be very much about hir goals, sure, but Bahamut itself shouldn't be playable during this arc, it should be through the main group's actions instead.

Health/Shield Spread[edit]

• If we ignore the above (or decide to in the third arc), probably 70/30? Really naturally tough, but able to recover some composure. Honestly, I feel like Bahamut's another one weird enough to subvert the 100 starting/ending rule.

General Feel[edit]

• Again, if we ignore the above, moreso than Lugh, about restrictions, I feel. Also just the weirdest shit, like probably just switching entire pieces of the boards, Bahamut can do that, you know.

Passive[edit]

Wanna try to explicitly establish a positive and a negative for each.

• Negative:
• Positive:

Block[edit]

Spells[edit]

Trying to come up with one purely physical, one purely mental, and one mix for every character, just to make sure each has one.

• Physical:
• Mental:
• Combination:

Feelings about Propositions[edit]

Relationships[edit]

Corvus[edit]

• A genuine problem, but he's dug his own grave by awakening Bahamut. Now, all Bahamut has to do is get all his power back together and then, THEN Corvus is gonna get it, yeah.

Dai[edit]

• I remember these two had a bit of a relationship (platonic) back in the day, though you may remember the details more than I.

Hina[edit]

• Being acutely aware of the dead, Hina is the first one to contact the remnants of Bahamut in the second arc, and the one to suggest Dai perform the ritual.

Issues to Be Resolved[edit]

• Bahamut's supposed to be kinda untouchable when he's on the mortal wavelength, so what exactly is keeping him from going 'Alright game over' when he gets a shiny new body with boob-shaped boobs in arc 2? I imagine, in one part, even beyond being in a mortal body after HAVING JUST BEEN MURDERED, is his aspects are still around and probably siphoned a good chunk of power in his final moments to keep themselves alive as long as possible.
