Bahamut and Tiamat were aspects of Io/Asgorath in early 2nd edition of AD&D lore?
...as well being the two key archetypes influencing all dragons, and in 1st edition of AD&D, the only gods of dragons?
Tumblr media
2014/2015 "Rage of Dragons" miniatures of Tiamat and Bahamut
Wile changes to Bahamut and Tiamat (and deific dragon lore in general) in 5th edition (were Bahamut and Tiamat are the supreme, and only real draconic gods), and to a degree 4th edition (were Bahamut and Tiamat were 2 halves of Io), were controversial; these changes are actually based on far older lore, that was changed mid 2nd edition, with 1992's Monster Mythology and further on.
In 1st edition of Advanced Dungeons and Dragons, Bahamut and Tiamat were the only dragon gods, with worship by dragons being split between them, as seen in 1984 article "Dragons and their deities" in Dragon #86: "Evil dragons worship Tiamat, and good dragons worship Bahamut. That is, for all practical purposes, the extent of common knowledge about the way dragons worship their deities."
The divinity of of two was first outright affirmed in 1980 in "Leomund's Tiny Hut: Rearranging and Redefining the Mighty Dragon" in Dragon #38; with Tiamat kinda earlier in the original 1978's Monster Manual, were she was presented among the Lords of Nine.
Tumblr media
Miniatures of Bahamut (or as named in the catalog the Platinum Dragon) and Tiamat (or as named in the catalog the Spectral Dragon), from Grenadier Models 1990 catalogue, originally from the 1989 Dragon of the Month II line from 1989. Special thanks @oldschoolfrp, thanks to who I know of this lines existence. Their original post here. I recommend checking them out.
Paladine and Takhisis from Dragonlance, also debuting in 1984, were often identified with Bahamut (Paladine) and Tiamat (Takhisis). It's rather ambiguous though - the creator of both, Jeff Grubb believing this, but writers of Dragonlance novels, and main architects of the setting, Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman (who basically gave them personality and story), believing them as similar, but separate characters/deities.
Official publications either suggested a connection, or stated them to be the same (as well as Bahamut and Tiamat gaining traits of Paladine and Takhisis, like being siblings, and in past, lovers), with 5th edition (with 2021's Fizban's Treasury of Dragons), stating them to be the same.
Tumblr media
Constellations of Krynn, in the center Takhisis (left) and Paladine (right) opposing each other, the Gilean' constellation between them. From 1984's "DL5: Dragons of Mystery".
Still, Paladine on Krynn (the world Dragonlance is set in) is/was the leader of the Gods of Good, and Takhisis is/was the leader of the Gods of Evil, and were among the most powerful deities of the setting, equaled only by their brother Gilean and second only to the High God and Chaos.
According to 1989's "Player's Guide to Dragonlance, the two together created the first dragons: "Paladine is Father of Good and Master of Law. During the Age of Dreams, Paladine led the gods in creation. Paladine and Takhisis, Queen of Darkness, infused the raw fury of chaos with form and purpose, creating the first material beings— dragons. Takhisis, jealous the first creations were not entirely hers, corrupted the chromatic dragons to evil. Paladine replaced his fallen children with the good, metallic dragons, but Takhisis’s act began the rift between good and evil."
This origin of dragons on Krynn evolved overtime though, with some changes, but I won't elaborate on this here.
Tumblr media
1990's Draconomicon
The draconic pantheon was first expanded with 1990's Draconomicon, though oddly, Bahamat and Tiamat are not among the list of Draconic deities, at least seemingly.
The book instead presents Bahamut and Tiamat instead as seemingly archetypal forms of all dragons (even indeed, the twin Platonic forms of all dragons), even their gods, all of whom (with one exception) are their "pale reflections": " And here the conversation must turn to dragons, for in these species the diffusion theory seems to be the only suitable explanation for their wide-spread existence. Dragons are the only creatures for which there exist archetypal forms. In dragonkind, these forms are Bahamut, the Platinum Dragon, and Tiamat, the Chromatic Dragon. All of the core species of dragonkind the good aligned metallic dragons and the evil-aligned chromatic dragons (ignoring for a moment those fringe species like crystal dragons) seem to be pale reflections of their archetypal forms, displaying some but not all of that archetypes characteristics. For example, a red dragon possesses some but not all of the characteristics attributed to Tiamat, while a gold dragon possesses some but not all of the characteristics attributed to Bahamut. Indulging in mathematical language for a moment, each species of dragon seems to be a subset of properties belonging to one or other of the archetypes. Or, conversely, each archetype seems to possess a superset of the properties possessed by the appropriate class of dragonkind. Some sages truly believe this observation to be representative of the truth of the matter. According to this theory, the very existence of the two archetypal forms Bahamut and Tiamat is responsible for the existence of dragons throughout the multiverse. In metaphorical language, dragons are the shadows that the archetypes cast across the planes. As shadows are, in a sense, subsets of the creatures casting them as they must be, since shadows are two-dimensional so are the shadows of the dragon archetypes subsets of those archetypes characteristics and powers."
Two of the dragon gods, Lendys and Tamara, as Platinum Dragons, seem to be even closer to the archetype of Bahamut, both being platinum dragons themselves, but still lesser than him.
In the same book, there is also mentioned the oldest and highest draconic god, Asgorath the World-Shaper, later identified with Io. Asgorath is stated to to be creator of dragons, and the universe (in the sense of seemingly all existence), at least according to dragons.
But, the myth in the same sourcebook (as found in-universe in the Book of the World, a written down red dragon myth, suggests Asgorath is Tiamat: "It is easy to speculate, based on this myth. The plural inflection of the word breath might be taken as implying multiple heads; the Thorass word for renegade is bahmat. It seems almost too close a correlation can Asgorath be Tiamat and the Renegade be Bahamut?"
This is further alluded in Asgorath's description: "Thus, reds believe that Asgorath is Chaotic Evil as implied in the Book of the World mentioned at the beginning of the chapter while bronzes believe Asgorath is Lawful Good."
Suggesting that like red dragons see/perceive Asgorath as Tiamat, Bronze (and other good dragons) would see the World-Shaper as Bahamut. And that the two "archetypal dragons" are themselves seemingly aspects/parts/avatars of Asgorath. Which is further suggested together with Bahamut's description in Draconomicon: "Sages continue to debate the true nature of Bahamut. Is he the archetype of all good dragonkind, the ideal of which all other dragons are merely shadows? Is he an avatar of a greater deity?"
This is quite obviously an inspiration for Io being split in ancient times into Bahamut and Tiamat in 4th edition/Nerath lore. As well as in "Fizban's Treasury of Dragons", presenting Bahamut and Tiamat as the origin of all dragons, and their forms, it even also using allusions to platonic forms, and shadows of higher reality. As well as Bahamut and Tiamat creating the original universe (that split into the multiverse), like Asgorath was stated to.
Io was first introduced in 1992's Monster Mythology, if very probably taking inspiration from Asgorath (with whom he is directly identified in the book), as well as perhaps Krynn's High God. Io is also stated there to be believed by dragons to be their creator, and of all of existence. As well repeating Platonic and Gnostic ideas from Draconomicon about the world being a shadow of a higher, truer reality: "We Dragon-sages make a distinction between the Two Voids; the First Void, wherein only Io had existence, and the Shadow Void, where Io's willingly shed blood created the potential for existence and creation to come into being. Most non-dragon races only know of the Shadow Void, and they do not know of the earlier time outside time when only the Ninefold Dragon existed."
Monster Mythology though, makes Bahamut and Tiamat somewhat lesser in status, making them Lesser Gods, though only Io (as a Greater God) and Chronepsis (an Intermediate God) are above them, the other two gods (Faluzure and Aesterinian), being on the same level of power. Still though, it is a visible downgrade from their grand role in Draconomicon, and of their counterparts (Paladine and Takhisis) on Krynn. Monster Mythology is also the the first to make Bahamut and Tiamat explicitly siblings and "intended mates".
1998's "Cult of the Dragon" sourcebook, combined the draconic pantheons mentioned described in Draconomicon and Monster Mythology, often identifying/conflating some deities between the two (notably Asgorath and Io, though that was done before). Though this also resulted in a seeming further downgrade in status of Bahamut and Tiamat, them being still Lesser Gods (and Bahamut identified with Xymor, made as possible child of Lendys and Tamara), while including multiple Intermediate Gods (Astilabor, Garyx, Kereska, Lendys, Null as the Guardian of the Lost/Chronepsis, Tamara and Zorquan).

Astrology observations
If this does not apply to you then keep scrolling. They are not all facts but my opinions and things i’ve noticed. Love you.
Scorpio moons are one of the kindest people out there.
Libra placements other than the sun, have an unique looks and features and way of thinking. Especially Libra risings.
Leo suns are typically very shy or quite closed off and mostly quite difficult to get close to.
7th house suns have a slight scorpio energy to them if you look deep enough.
People find it hard to understand someone with a 12th house aquarius chiron.
Scorpio mercuries are always mistaken for the power that they actually have. Never ask what they really think of something if you don’t wanna know. They are one of the smartest mercury placements out there. And their observing abilities are insane.
Scorpio mercury + virgo venus knows how to hit the spot in every way. Good and bad. They are too intelligent for this world.
Saturn in virgo/6th house always took responsibility even if it wasn’t directly handed to them. They were always mature and intelligent, even emotionally sometimes. Even from the youngest years they were aware.
Sagittarius jupiter always has one of the greatest success strategies, but don’t always go 210% out to follow them and make them reality. (Look at the other placements too.)
Some Gemini suns with sagittarius moon are really rude verbally to people who are not obeying or if they don’t get what they exactly want to people who did nothing to deserve it. (Look at the other placements too.)
Gemini suns who are aware of themselves and their emotions, also connected to their inner self or overall spiritual or in good contact with themselves are out of the world beyond. I worship you guys.
Most sagittarius moons have a very limited way of thinking and outlook on the world and people that is very hard to expand.
It can be hard for a Capricorn moon to move on from one topic to another in a quick time span. BUT IT IS 100% OKAY!! Some people might get quite frustrated with it.
ARIES VENUSES ARE SO PRETTY AND COOL mostly their features are a chef’s kiss. Also if you do not already know. You need a lot of red colored clothing and stuff. Or to have a red undertone. You’ll thank me later if you didn’t already know.💋
It’s sometimes really hard for an aquarius venus to find what they TRULY like or to find their style. They mostly experiment a lot or not at all. It’s just a long and hard process to find what suits them the most.
Aries placements are mostly highly corny in their relationships.
Love, Tsunami ~ <3
But that is all for now. This was actually my first post ever. I really hope that you liked this and i would love to read comments about if you guys relate to it! Alright, love you!

Mako Rescue
Name: Macie
Species: Mako (Underfell!Sans Shark from Fantasy Fields)
Morph: Nightlight, Swirl, Eldritch Eyes
Variant: No Variant
Age: Young Adult
Size: 20 Feet Total, 7 Feet Standing (Average Bara)
Personality: Defensive, Paranoid, Prankster
Compatibility: Macie is a very paranoid bitty, often hiding wherever she can in her tank and growling at anyone who gets too close to her.
Due to her previous circumstances, she’s scared of almost everyone and sees all other bitties as an enemy to be defeated, and will often try to sneak up on someone in order to attack them first. Because of this, it’s recommended that she be an only bitty, at least until she’s healed enough to not attack anyone.
She needs a lot of places to hide in her tank, as that would make her feel a lot more safe.
If she feels safe enough around you, she’ll often pull small, harmless pranks to show that she’s not as bad as she knows she seems. She never does anything out of malice, and she thinks of herself as someone who will never find true peace because of what she’s been through.
She needs someone kind and patient who can spend time with her and show her that she’s loved. Macie will love you forever if you show her that she’s loved even after everything!
Feeding habits: Macie tends to hoard food, and starves herself to save food in case something bad happens.
You’ll have to feed her by hand so that she doesn’t do this, which will be pretty difficult at first. With enough patience, she’ll learn that food won’t be running out any time soon.
Additional info: She loves to watch people play video games, whether it be you or someone online! She especially likes story-based rpgs like Final Fantasy and Persona!
Injuries: She has a small fracture across her collarbone, and quite a few chipped teeth. All injuries are most likely from fights.
Special requirements: She needs things to chew on when she’s bored, and be prepared to get a lot of chew toys! Even with her chipped teeth, her bite is very strong and she’ll probably chew through most things!
Warnings: She has the tendency to attack other bitties, so it’s not recommended that you adopt her with any other bitties currently in your home. This could change as she heals, though!
Reasons for rescue: She was rescued from an aquatic bitty fighting ring, one that was very low budget as there wasn’t a lot of food most of the time. The police found her trying to hide, but her tank was too small for her to properly move in. She was given to the rescue by the police and has been there ever since.
Difficulty: Advanced
Color/Pattern: White bones, Red swirl markings that glow in the dark, Regular Mako tail, Red eyelights, 2 pairs of eyes.

UnderTale Papyrus Centaur
UnderTale Papyrus Centaur
Name: Jord
Species: Fjord horse
Size: 2 - 3 feet tall(Mini), 5 - 6 feet tall(Fullsize), 8 - 9 feet tall(Bara)
Personality: Active, hyper, friendly, athletic,
Likes: Running, jumping, swimming, playing, large herds.
Dislikes: Being bored, small spaces/fields, small herds,
Compatibility: These bitties are super active and can easily walk double the average amount of miles in a day due to them always running around,
They somehow have so much energy that they can stay up for days on end and never get tired! Due to this it's best to have other bitties that can keep up with them or more that prefer/are more active in different parts of the day/night to keep them from getting bored!
When they get bored they have a habit of jumping fences, though due to this having jumps on their fields is a good way to keep them from getting bored!
These bitties are super social and need larger herds to be happy,
Feeding habits: Centaurs are mainly herbivores, Jord's are not super picky and as they are almost always out in a field(it's hard to keep them inside, even when Mini sized due to their energy)
Additional info: Centaur bitties can be ridden as long as you aren't more than heavy! Though luckily they are a bit stronger than normal horses so as long as you aren't over 40%(instead of the 20% of normal horses) of their body weight then you should be able to ride them just fine as long as you have properly fitted tack! And a good thing is that they can tell you if it hurts and if you need to get off!
Centaur bitties do best with a lot of outside time! And they tend to walk a lot! Even lazy ones can easily walk 20 - 40(based on size) miles a day without getting tired!
Zone: [[Plains]], [[Savanna]],
In Universe: These bitties are seen as way to full of energy for any sane person to keep!
Difficulty: Intermediate - Advanced
Features:
Main colors: White, gray, brown, black, tan, chestnut, orange,
Secondary colors: White, gray, brown, black, tan, chestnut, orange,
Extra: N/A

Sharess was originally a good aspect of Shar *and* Lolth?
...and perhaps the fragment of remaining goodness from both evil goddesses, with all three being possibly originally the same entity? (At least in late 1st and early 2nd edition AD&D lore)
Tumblr media
Depictions (from left to right) of Shar, Sharess and Lolth, from 2003's Faiths and Pantheons
It might be a bit obscure, but rather than Bast merging with/absorbing the goddesses Felidae and Zandilar the Dancer; Sharess was originally intended to be a Chaotic Good aspect of Shar, as seen in her very first description in the original 1987 "Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting": "Sharess, a CG aspect of Shar worshipped in Calimshan, Waterdeep, and by idle rich or decadents all over the Realms. Sharess is a goddess of lust, free love, and sensual fulfillment, and is worshipped in prolonged fests with scented baths, music, good food, dancing, and other gratifications."
This when asking one of the writers/editors, Matt Sernett about this, he confirmed that Sharess was actually meant to be a benevolent aspect of Shar, and this not being a misdirection as presented later in lore.
This was basically repeated in 1988's "Empires of the Sands", as well as in the 1993 2nd edition Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting, though the latter further suggesting Sharess' benevolent nature might be an act, or that Sharess became a separate being from Shar by this point: "The true nature and identity of Sharess is unrevealed. She may he a direct part of the evil Shar, preparing her following for despair and loss. Or she may be a new thing entirely: a goddess of excess."
This starts to become even more interesting with 1991's "Drow of the Underdark", in the section with the short dictionary of Drow language. There "valsharess" is explained as meaning "Queen", and "Quarvalsharess" "(the) Goddess" in Drow language, specifically and only meaning Lolth (other goddesses are are written as quar'valsharess, and not starting with a capital letter).
The same sourcebook, details the syncretic She-Spider cult - who seemingly consider Lolth and Shar to be the same goddess. The cult was opposed by both goddesses, which is curious, seeing Shar's eagerness to subsume other deities. Though Lolth did latter possibly send her priestess (Malabeth Tr'rudena) to infiltrate the cult.
Tumblr media
A card from TSR's Advanced Dungeons & Dragons Trading Cards, depicting Malabeth.
This is a proof (along with the mention Shar worship is relatively popular among Drow), of such syncretic cults between the two goddesses existing, as well as one of the hints Shar and Lolth are or were to a degree aspects of each other. Similarly how Sehanine Moonbow in both 2nd edition and 4th edition, was stated to be aspect of Shar's sister, Selûne, most notably first in the above mentioned 2nd edition Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting: "Sehanine: Sehanine is an intermediate power among the elves of the Realms, for they refer to her as an elven version of Selûne, the mortal goddess of the moon."
Indeed, Sharess herself might had been a hint at the connection between Lolth and Shar.
There appeared more hints overtime, like similar antagonism between the 2 pairs, Shar and Lolth becoming both connected to the New Moon, and even more in late 3.5 edition and 4th edition/Nerath lore. For example, it was stated at the very end of 3.5th edition that the god Mask is Shar's son, mirroring Vhaeraun being the son of Lolth. The two gods are very similar, both being gods of thievery connected to shadows, as well as Vhaeraun being called the "Masked Lord", "Masked Mage", "Masked God of the Night". Furthermore, both gods share near identical titles - Vhaeraun being called the "Lord of Shadow" and "Shadow Lord"; Mask being known as the "Lord of Shadows" and "Shadowlord". Both having a similar to near identical symbols. With there being theories, and hints before this reveal, Mask and Vhaeraun might be connected, maybe even aspects of each other, Mask even kinda hinting in one novel (1998's "Crucible: The Trial of Cyric the Mad" by Troy Denning) he is the same as Vhaeraun.
Tumblr media
Symbols of Vhaeraun (left, from 1998's "Demihuman Deities") and Mask (right, from 1996's "Faiths and Avatars")
Tumblr media
Pictures of Vhaeraun battling his son, Selvetarm (left, from 2004's "Player's Guide to Faerun"), and of Mask (right, from 2003's "Faiths and Pantheons") On Nerath, in turn Lolth and Sehanine are described as sisters, like Shar and Selûne are. So the (at least initial) opposition to the She-Spider cult from both, being possibly from not wanting for their connection to be revealed; or alternately be merged back by the power of belief.
Though to be clear, this could work either way if Shar and Lolth are or were aspects of each other, or not. As Sharess, in her original lore, possibly sprung into existence from the worship of the syncreticism of Shar and Lolth, that arose among drow, and then spread to other races/species, possibly originally named "Quarvalsharess"; before the name became shortened/corrupted among non-drow into just "Sharess". Or even started out named already Sharess among even drow, shortening from Quarvalsharess, to emphasize the "Shar" part.
It's probable Shar at least had more control over the Sharess aspect than Lolth (seeing Sharess was directly stated to be connected to her), and possibly the new goddess, in part absorbing or mirroring whatever benevolent aspects the two goddesses had, became an independent being. This quite probably being at least in part also caused by "Time of Troubles", when gods were forced into singular avatars, this event would have cut-off Sharess from both Shar and Lolth. Especially seeing the possibility of Sharess being an independent entity, was first mentioned not long after the Time of Troubles (ie when 2nd edition Forgotten Realms setting was set).
Tumblr media
Depiction of Sharess, from 1995's Polyhedron #109
Soon though, Sharess was given a different origin (first in 1995's “Forgotten Deities: Sharess” in Polyhedron #109, then further developed with some changes in 1997's "Powers and Pantheons" and 1998's "Demihuman Deities") , if still being connected to Shar, and (more indirectly) to drow, and being an amalgamation of aspects of multiple goddesses (but different ones); it's still though an interesting possibility/alternate origin for home campaigns.
Or perhaps even theorizing some part of Shar or even Lolth did get into the divine merger that was Sharess. ("Was", as in 5th edition lore, Sharess was basically split back into Bast and Zandilar).

Quick Guide: Using Manga & Light Novels to Learn Kanji
Tumblr media
When it comes to language learning, finding new and fun ways to study to keep yourself motivated as you progress is sort of a must. It’s easy to find yourself stagnating as you become more advanced or finding your current methods boring. The idea of using manga as a study tool for kanji or casual language isn’t anything new in the Japanese studying community, but I’ve never actually seen methods being exchanged so I decided to share one I picked up recently to start learning more kanji in a way I found more entertaining than textbooks and typical kanji resources. 
Resources:
tanoshii japanese
any japanese dictionary app w/ handwriting recognition
a pen that can write on your phone or tablet
Manga
When it comes to manga, most if not all kanji found are accompanied by furigana whether it is a character’s name or a verb or any other type of noun. This makes looking up any new kanji you find easy whether it is on. Personally, in the case of manga I will use the dictionary function on TanoshiiJapanese which is a great resource in general. Simply type the hiragana or kanji (and match the kanji you’re searching with the suggested kanji your keyboard generates) and press search. Not only will you be provided onyomi and kunyomi readings, but sample sentences and any and all conjugations a word may have including tense functions, potential form, etc.
Light Novels (& Doujinshi + JPN Fanfic)
Unlike manga, light novels (as well doujin and fanfic made by Japanese fans) rarely contain furigana so using the ‘type and search’ method you can do for manga doesn’t really apply here. I always found it frustrating when this happened to me because knowing what the kanji looks like doesn’t mean anything if you can’t look it up since you don’t know the pronunciation. But when I discovered the benefits of handwriting recognition dictionary apps, it was no longer an issue. Whenever you come across an unknown character, you can write it on the app and it will search it from there. The more clear your handwriting, the better the search will be so getting some sort of tablet/phone writing pen will go a long way. Even something cheap from online will do.
I also recommend the app has a list making function of some sort so you can save the kanji you learn if you prefer keeping your notes and flashcards electronically. Personally, I use Shirabe Jisho as it provides definitions, stroke order, onyomi and kunyomi readings, the JLPT level of the kanji (which may matter to some) and various compounds. Looking up the character 惚 produced several compounds like: 惚れる(ほれる), 見惚れる (みとれる) and 恍惚 (こうこつ).

LOOKING FOR A ROLEPLAY PARTNER ON DISCORD (18+)
Good evening writers!
My name is Mudita. I am a roleplayer/writer looking for a long term roleplay partner! I only write on discord, and I’m looking for a permanent person to gush over storylines with!
A long term roleplay partner is an absolute dream to me. I would love it if somebody stuck around to write with me. I have had long term partners before, but it has been awhile since I’ve found one that has really clicked . Here are my requirements:
• I mostly write mxm (male and male). I can always try male and female, but it doesn’t grasp my attention as much.
• 18+ only. I do not write anything to do with animals, mpreg, children/ddlg, scat (and anything of that matter).
• NSFW allowed, but only when required. I am not here to write smut only. That is boring!
• I am ADV LITERATE. My responses can range from extremely detailed, to something basic. I prefer keeping a healthy balance between the two. Quality over quantity. I usually match my partners length. Sometimes I may not be in the mood to write 5+ paragraphs, so only one will do. Obviously length changes depending on the situation and mood. Third person only.
• Regarding face claims, I really don’t like anything animated or cartoonish. This includes drawings. I find it extremely difficult to paint a picture in my head of what’s happening if your face claim is not human. When you use a real person as a face claim, please ensure that they look realistic. I get too many people sending me tiktokers, or boys from Pinterest who who look extremely young or pixie like. It’s very off putting.
• When it comes to themes and plots, I like everything really. I mostly like modern day slice of life, or even a jump into the past. Horror is always a good one too. I love anything that contains dark themes, romance, sci-fi, mystery, coming of age, and even a little bit of fantasy if it’s done right. One thing I do stay away from, though, is werewolves/anything to do with animals.
• When it comes to responses, I expect at least a few a week. I’m quite a busy person myself, but I will always communicate with my partner when I can respond. Shorter responses are much easier, and it allows me to respond more. Realistically, I would like somebody to continuously rp with back and forth, even if it means the responses are on the shorter side.
Thank you for reading the above. I may sound extra picky, but I’m tired of roleplaying with partners who do not meet my needs or standards. I just want somebody to be excited with, and I want to share the wonderful experience of writing together!
PLEASE message me on here, or like this post if you are interested. Thank you!
