Tiamat

By Crusader1307

From Ancient Sumeria, come The Legend of ''Tiamat''. Born of unspecified origins, Tiamat and her husband Abzu, were responsible for creating many of The Oceans creatures (their offspring). Another God (Aspu) kills Tiamat's husband. She took the form of a multi-headed Sea Monster Dragon. Taking her revenge and killing Aspu, he begins to create more of her kind. She replaced their blood with pure poison.Eventually slain by Aspu's Son (who used her split in half body to make the heavens and the earth). Tiamat is the Mother of All Dragons. These new offspring would live eternally bringing destruction to all (and become a popular Medieval pastime for the Art of Slaying).
