who is Tiamat I didn't even prep you for this but I didn't think you needed it no I know who tat is she's a personal friend of mine yeah tat and I go way back we do uh tell me about Tiamat people recently seen this character in yes animation so tmat is or DND D's version tmat is a five-headed dragon often dubbed as the queen of chromatic dragons or the queen of evil dragons uh her heads are colored red white blue black and green each of her heads looks like the head of the Dragon whose
color it is because this is a five-headed monster she's got five brains so she's super smart uh she's uh also um a God uh or so powerful as to be perceived as a god um evil dragons don't worship her per se but they certainly respect her uh and she probably has the biggest dragon horde of any dragon in the Multiverse so if you can find it good on you yeah um uh or put it back yes uh so Tiamat showed up in the first edition monster manual uh beautifully Illustrated in black and white uh she
has appeared in every edition of the game since in some way shape or form and she's she's really big she's really scary she's a great final big bad monster boss with her five breath weapons and her spellcasting abilities and her just generally ill demeanor um she will run Ru shod over practically any party any time um now the uh kids animated show from the 1980s fig powered down she figured very prominently there um as kind of a nemesis who would show up and then do some damage and then tromp off uh the kids were lucky
to escape her wrath uh but uh so she has I think she garnered quite a following after her multiple appearances in that show yeah uh and ever since uh she has manifest um in various plots and stories over the years most recently uh she was Central to the tyranny of dragons campaign that we used to launch fifth edition back in 2014 she was sort of a big bad there she now will haunt uh viewers in a secret level uh in one of the episodes she plays a very prominent role yeah and um she's always welcome
in my Multiverse uh when she's not carousing she finds herself confined to the nine Hells yeah U the details of that are sort of mysterious but the long and short of it is she used to rule the first layer of Hell back in the first edition era then she got ousted and Trapped In Hell probably because she didn't read the fine print in asmod de's contract right uh so she enjoyed a little power for a while and then she found herself trapped there and she's more or less been trapped ever since but various forces from
Evil dragons to evil cultists are always conspiring to set her loose if only to give the Multiverse something else to worry about one of the biggest threats in D and D oh yes yes absolutely hard to smile apex predator all the way not Apex five apex predator she does have a counterpart by the way his name is bahamat he is the platinum dragon he is seen as a as the the epitome of good Dragon kind and we can talk about him at a later date if he gets his own show
