Tiamat

Description

Physical

• In an effort to diversify my cast to match yours (you son of a bitch), I can see Tiamat having Asian features. Regardless, I'd like to up the weirdness in her form a bit, especially because she was a very early dragon so she shouldn't be TOO human, it should mostly be begrudging because people don't like working with giant dragons. Scales, blue-tinted skin, et cetera in her general form. I feel like her humanoid form is vaguely 'sexy,' but it's not about attraction, it's about dominance, and about disarming people with how dominant she appears. She's beautiful, confident, you gotta do what she says.

Mental

• A long time ago, Tiamat was gonna be queen of the dragons. Then a very short time after that, she saw a terrible thing, and her drive to do anything was shaken. A long time has since passed, but she's still stuck in her rut, only slightly roused from it when the plight of dragons enters her view. Even then, she's stuck playing the victim and it both makes her an unreliable leader and all the more likely to enter the cycle again.

Musical

• Probably more spacey/dreamy prog, or perhaps unique songs for each form, the majority of which fit the spacey/dreamy tag but then there's poison.

Playstyle

Health/Shield Spread

• Oh jeez. I can see her having a weird system like Umbra, probably tied to her forms. Uh, pass right now.

General Feel

• All the colors of the rainbow. Tiamat, moreso than any other character pulled into this, represents change. But it's not always good change, and it's not always fluid. It's just change. Her general feel will be kinda blue because she is a water dragon, but poison would pull from black, control and energy from white, and light/dark I imagine would actually feel kinda blue because she'd switch randomly between the two during the form and each would play off what was done with the other.

Passive

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

• Negative:
• Positive:

Block

• Tiamat's default block may simply be something like 'Dragon's Fury,' and pretty much function like neutral blocks (which may not exist anymore?). One of her spells lets her change forms, however, and each form makes these blocks behave in new and exciting ways. She'd be VERY complicated and a bitch to balance, but if done right would be a fun way to play and an engaging one to go against.

Spells

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

Relationship

Bahamut

• So is this my Bahamut then? As in, Maker of the Dragons and Elves? Because if so, fuck that guy. If not, I imagine Tiamat still sees him as an equal target at least, she has some unresolved issues!

Fenrir

• The only Agent more broken than her, she enjoys treating Fenrir like a pet. Fenrir of course is terrified of her due to her immense power, but he gives her what she wants because the alternative may be worse. Also, of the three agents above him, Tiamat is the one with the least concern for normal Tellurian life and lets him run loose and go wild sometimes, which is nice. She's like the fun mom.

Weapon Goddess

• Weapon Goddess is generally very good at being polite, so Tiamat doesn't really have a problem with her. In addition, almost all of Tiamat's forms, due to how reality warping they are, interfere with WG's nanites, so the two don't really get to hang out much anyway. If they did, Tiamat's opinion would probably change.

Zero Hunter

• ZH, like Tiamat, predates the majority of other Agents births. They are old souls, and as such, if nothing else are equivalent to longtime coworkers. Tiamat, however, is personally opposed to his destructive goals, and ZH will call Tiamat out on her lazing on her own, leaning to equally long-running tension. I imagine due to how long they've known each other there is a sort of comfort around one another, but they're Agents specifically and headstrong in general so I don't think they make much effort to really spend time together outside of the Plane.
