Bahamut is a platinum dragon, the only of his kind. He fought in the Creation War and then in the Demon Spawn War (8972 GE - 9493 GE). One of Bahamut's more interesting foes of the Creation War was the primordial lord named Hettar. They fought a dozen times, each with Bahamut beating a hasty retreat. In their last fight, Bahamut came prepared with a means of countering Hettar's great regenerative powers. By way of a powerful ritual, dragon magic, he infused himself with the blood of a defeated primordial, one that had the body of a hydra and instead of long necks with reptilian heads, they were heads of medusa. Bahamut's next breath weapons were clouds of petrifying gas, turning Hettar to stone.

In 9250 GE, Bahamut and Geb captured Kerath.

In the First Dragon Wake (9251 GE - 9269 GE), Bahamut battled his former general, a dragon turned abomination named Tiamat. Some years after defeating Tiamat, Bahamut left for the Nawenglorûs System. There on 1 Hollow 9275 GE, Bahamut entered the Temple of Ascension, becoming a Cult Power.

In the Horgon Era, Bahamut's largest worshiper base was the empire of Zeymah'kein (600 HE - 1600 HE).
