Summary[]
Tiamat is a minor antagonist in Before the Sable Dawn, a second superweapon craeted by the Pentavaust in secret. Supposedly being a normal vampire with nothing too extraordinary, Mephisto would perform experiments on him and even fusing him with the corpse of an ancient dragon. This would lead to the creation of Tiamat, a being of pure chaos and destruction. Heralded as a natural disaster, there is almost nothing that he can destroy.

Notable Attacks/Techniques:
Ginnungagap, the Darkness without Light: Tiamat's mere presence is enough to exude a cloud of darkness that eliminates all light around him. Just looking at it turns people blind, turning them near-mad upon sight. It is an extension of his being, spirit, will, whatever you wish to call it. Such darkness spans kilometers and can act just like another part of his body, consuming and absorbing the blood and life essence of others to become stronger. With the more blood that he consumes, this darkness becomes not only stronger, but grows larger.
Dominion over All: The unique ability of Tiamat due to him being a vampire-draconic hybrid, mutating his Reasoning to become something much more powerful. With this ability, Tiamat is capable of controlling vectors and the flow of kinetic energy around him, making it near-impossible to truly harm him. It is both the ultimate defense and the ultimate offense, granting him the name of the spear of the Pentavuast.
