[QUOTE="RoughCoronet0, post: 9156167, member: 7031665"] I recall various bits of lore about the platinum dragon gods. Lendys was the Lawful Neutral wingless platinum dragon god of justice and judgement, who was so strict and focused on his duties that his platinum scales have tarnished from lack of care of himself. Tamara was the Neutral Good wingless platinum dragon goddess of light, mercy, and forgiveness, considered the most benevolent of the original dragon gods created by Io/Asgorath (at least according to some myths). Bahamut then was a balance of the two, being a Lawful Good platinum dragon god that combined Lendys's strong sense of justice with Tamara's compassion and kind nature. In some myths, it is even stated that Bahamut is the child of the first two, and that he would go one to become the more popular platinum dragon god. Of course, there are so many different myths and interpretations of the dragon deities and their origins that nothing is really set in stone, which is something I like about many of the D&D pantheons. I personally prefer the myths of him coming directly into existence from Io's death alongside Tiamat, or the two being mates that created the First World together but that's just me. [/QUOTE]
