Character Description
Known as the "Moon Eater" in Philippine mythology, the Bakunawa is a colossal serpent-like dragon that is often enticed by the moon's beauty and therefore wanted to keep it all to herself and even devour it, causing perpetual solar eclipses and endless storms across the globe.
Personality
Being a goddess, her personality comes off as dominating and arrogant. She is also possessive of the many things she desires for, especially every moon that she gets her claws on. At most times, she gets bored often and neglects her duties in keeping the Tempest Realm under control, going out of her way to steal the moon and cause natural disasters around the world for her own fun and pleasure. She is also very short tempered and would go in a fit of rage whenever she is annoyed, which is shown during her interactions with Orion after attempting to trap him in the underworld for eternity, which proved to be her plan's downfall.
