Name: Tiamat [TEE-uh-mat]
Nicknames: Tia
Gender: Female
Race: Wolf
Sub-Race: Demon
Breed: Druin
Age: 50 (young adult)
Pack: Giaku
Rank: Princess
Appearance: A mighty Druin female, 7 feet in height. Tiamat has thick fur coating of a deep green color that runs from her mane all the way down to her tail. Her underbelly is a light sea-green, almost yellowish. She has two mighty green bird-wings that hide elegantly beneath her fur. Her long claws are retractable, and her two horns (silver in color) are thick and curved all the way down to her maw (very much like ram's horns). Her eyes are shimmering silver, like the moon. At the very end of her tail, the last foot or so is split into two; long ago, that last part had been cut in half, and as it healed, the tail reformed into two ends.
Personality: Tiamat does only what pleases her. She likes to be amused, and so what if her sense of humor varies as frequently as the moon? If something does not amuse her, she gets bored, and when she gets bored, anything goes. She's self-centered in that she won't commit to anything, believing that commitment to anything interesting makes it boring. As fighters go, Tiamat is a vicious beast who WILL claw your eyes out, but she'll only fight if she gets pushed over the edge. Fights, she has determined, are a waste of time. Her sense of humor -- the most important part of her, she would contend -- can be anything from cheesy to bloody to cute to violent to witty to irreverent. So far, she hasn't cared enough about anybody to feel guilty if she offends or hurts them in some way. But if you say the wrong thing (she can be astonishingly sensitive for someone so irreverent), you'd better watch out, for she has a temper as hot and searing as lightning.
Magic: Chief Element: Speed
Running: She can run up to 300 mph, which is almost bullet-speed; if she ran fast and hard enough, she could kill someone else just by hitting them! Usually, though, she just likes to zoom around, running on the surface of water or leaving others in the dust (it amuses her when they can't catch up). It does take her a while to accelerate to full speed, however, and just as long to decelerate. She's not sure how long she can maintain full speed, either, having never traveled very far away from her homeland in Giaku.
History:
The scene: Giaku.
The time: post-Requj, pre-Diabol.
The culprit: A very horny Tartarus.
The means: Secunda, one of Tartarus' concubines.
The crime: The conception of Tiamat.
Tiamat was born to the sensual Secunda, Tartarus' second favorite concubine (their real names are forgotten, replaced by numerals only: Prima, the first, then Secunda, then Tertia, etc.). This was about a year after the births of Tartarus' first children, Endymion and Marahis. It was said that Tiamat came out of her mother's womb laughing—cackling, even—instead of whining and crying. This immediately endeared her to her father, who otherwise would have been displeased with the event of her birth.
Instead, Tia became an instant hit with her dad. He not only tolerated her, he ensured that she would be treated with respect by the other wolves in the pack. This, of course, gave Tia a sense of entitlement that she really didn't earn. She became spoiled, self-centered, and (when Diabol's litter came along) something of a bully (but only when it amused her).
To this day, Tiamat enjoys high status in Giaku. She is not in line to inherit reign over Giaku, which suits her fine: being Queen would be boring anyhow. She is her own damn princess, and no one can rein her in (the slut who was her mother died when she was still a pup, so Tia never really knew her and never really cared; she certainly doesn't acknowledge Diabol as having any control over her; and Tartarus is always too busy to deal with her anyhow).
