Tiamat

Tiamat is a Crimson Lord who closely resembles her contractor, Wilhelmina Carmel, in temperament and demeanor.

Her flame color is cherry pink, a distinctive trait that sets her apart.

She is famously taciturn and almost never speaks at length.

Even when she does speak, she uses only brief, clipped words or phrases of five characters or fewer.

Because of this extreme brevity, Marchosias once remarked that there is no point in asking her for an explanation.

To reduce speech as much as possible, she often speaks in compact four-character idiomatic expressions.

Tiamat is rather cold and unsentimental by nature.

Her blunt attitude is severe enough that Wilhelmina Carmel sometimes protests by hitting her on the head.

Despite that detached side, Tiamat appears to care deeply for Shana, much like Wilhelmina does.

She also treats Yuji Sakai harshly, mirroring the strict attitude of her contractor.

Her title, "Silent Great River," reflects both her silence and her steady, unadorned presence.

She is a character defined as much by what she does not say as by what she says.

Her dialogue is extremely condensed and often expressed through terse set phrases.

This makes her speech memorable, unusual, and sometimes difficult for others to interpret.

A goddess named Tiamat also appears in Babylonian mythology.

The character shares that name, though this note only identifies the mythological namesake.
