Bahamut (Bah-hah-mut)

(a.k.a. God of justice and good)

Bahamut is the dragon god of justice and an ally to Pholtus, god of law and light. He is at the top of the Draconic pantheon, as a deity of good dragons, metallic dragons, wisdom, and enlightened justice (justice tempered with mercy and punishment with forgiveness). His natural form was that of a platinum dragon. He is also the eternal rival of his sister Tiamat, queen of the chromatic dragons.
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 was also considered one of the most compassionate beings in the multiverse. He had limitless empathy for the downtrodden, the dispossessed, and the helpless. He usually preferred to curse those who had offended him instead of killing them with something ironically fitting. IE: A thief being unable to pick valuable objects up, a murderer of innocent unable to make any sort of hostile action.
By draconic standards, Bahamut was neither vain or desirous of treasure. He valued wisdom, knowledge, prophecies, and songs instead. However, he also pursued viciously (usually sending his champions and followers) those who tried to steal the hoard from his palace as, after all, he was the god of justice. Also, unlike most deities, could exist in both physical and divine form with no problem transitioning between the two.
Basic tenants: -Uphold the highest ideals of honor and justice. -Be constantly vigilant against evil and oppose it on all fronts. -Protect the weak, liberate the oppressed, and defend just order.
Powers Bahamut disdained combat, and he preferred to talk with his opponents and convince them to surrender using his legendary diplomatic skills. Despite this, he was easily capable of defending himself. Along with all the standard powers and godly senses of a deity of his rank, those who saw him fight claimed that he had two breath weapons, one a powerful cone of cold, the other a vapor that turned his enemies into gaseous forms. A third special attack was his roar, which was so powerful that it could disintegrate creatures or objects within 100 feet (30 meters). If facing off against more powerful creatures, this roar would still permanently deafen those who weren't turned to dust. On top of that he was more powerful than any mortal dragon, and was also reputed to know every arcane and divine spell. Ages have passed since any record or tale of a battle with Bahamut has been said to have been witnessed.
