!!Tiamat

The primordial goddess of oceans, storms and all chaotic forms of nature from Babylonian mythology. After Apsu, her husband and Other, was killed by humans, she conceived the eight Demon Sorcerers with Typhon as tools of her revenge, but the results horrified her so much that she hid herself from the world for centuries. In ''The Stronger Evil'', the meteor shower that activates the Demon Sorcerers' chis also heralds Tiamat's return, which would mean the destruction of the current world.

Though Drago worked for Shendu's future self, he makes it clear that he's so bitter he'd happily pulverize his father's present self if not for his own conception. However, he's unable to emotionally distance himself from his mother's present self even though she's firmly on his enemies' side and isn't technically the woman who raised him in his own time, leading to him having an uneasy consensus with her and reluctantly giving her a chance when she decides to help him seek redemption.
