Tiamat

The main antagonist of my comic that I'm working on. I'll post the comic here soon when I'm halfway done with it.

The Grim...the true monster, is the eerie, yet glamorous diamond-shaped jade.


Created by Mammoth Mogul thousands of years ago to serve him during his years of rule over Mobius as a superior lord. The monster was never given a name, but ancient echidna tablets have dubbed her as "The Grim", "It-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named", or "Jewel of Lost Souls". The Grim, to a certain small degree, possesses the same abilities as Mogul.

Described as a female entity, though, The Grim doesn't have a body of her own. In fact, she is virtually powerless unless she possesses a host. Thus, she must heavily rely on her telepathy and charisma to lure upon an unsuspecting victim, and have them plant her upon their forehead.

This will allow the Grim to attach herself to her victim via the nervous system, and then steadily, to each and every other system of the body. During the course of this process, the Grim learns everything about the individual, through old memories and dreams that have been suppressed; By invading their minds, she can twist her victim's take on reality, consequently, driving them to madness...often death.

Not only does the Grim have her own powers, but when she successfully gains control of her victims, she acquires their abilites as well, for as long as she remains hold upon them; Often manisfesting their anger/hatred/fears/lust/greed/etc into a grotesque, physical form( In this case in the comic, Kayla is transformed into a lycanthropic beast with pyrokinetic powers. So, something closer to a Hellhound with extreme feral and bloodthirsty tendencies. ).

Once the Grim has seized control, it's almost impossible to remove her from her host. To forcibly rip her out would mean almost certain death for the host. Only positive energies of purity and light can safely remove the parasitic gem without killing the host.

Whether she can be totally destroyed or not remains a mystery.

The Grim's loyalty to her master is immensely strong, and never questions his orders. To her, his word is law. One of the reasons may be is that she hopes that he could provide her with a host body able to sustain her chaotic powers.


And for the Dragon...
The final, "true form" of "The Grim" monster, whose true name is Tiamat(Though she has never uttered her real name to any enemy). Her seething hatred for Sonic and the mortals that defy her and Mammoth Mogul, and her Chaos powers manifested into one. With her previous host(Kayla), now trapped within the enlarged gem upon her forehead, she continues to channel Kayla's strengths into her own.

A Dracolich type of beast of mass proportions, she leaves destruction in her wake. Never seen before by enemy eyes, Tiamat makes her first debut when...well I won't spoil it. :)
