Note that Bahamut requires either a reptilian race (i.e. kobold) or Gift of Unique Favor if selecting a divine class (at any point in the build).
Bahamut is revered in many locales.
Though all good-aligned dragons
pay homage to Bahamut, gold, silver,
and brass dragons hold him
in particularly high regard. Other
dragons, even evil ones (except perhaps
his archrival Tiamat), respect
Bahamut for his wisdom and power.
In his natural form, Bahamut is
a long, sinuous dragon covered in silverwhite
scales that sparkle and gleam even in
the dimmest light. Bahamut’s catlike eyes are
deep blue, as azure as a midsummer sky, some
say. Others insist that Bahamut’s eyes are a frosty
indigo, like the heart of a glacier. Perhaps the
colors merely reflect the Platinum Dragon’s
shifting mood.
