The Ancient Filipinos and other gods alike were captivated by their beauty, but the serpent-dragon Bakunawa thought differently. She was so jealous of their beauty that every night, she would arise from the ocean and devour all the moons whole until there's only one left, causing Bathala and Bakunawa to be mortal enemies of each other from then on. In an effort to keep Bakunawa at bay, people would go out of their homes with pans and pots to create a series of loud noises to scare the Bakunawa into spitting out the moon back in the sky. Other times, they would play music so soothing it will send Bakunawa into a peaceful slumber, letting the moon she swallowed to roll out of her mouth safely. That was what the Filipinos had put in their ancient records. In reality, Bakunawa had a sister in the form of a sea turtle. The sea turtle would visit a certain island to lay her eggs in but the locals noticed that every time the turtle went ashore, the water seemed to follow her which reduced the island's size. In fear that their island would disappear, they resorted to killing the sea turtle. Bakunawa learned of her sister's murder and as revenge, she ascended from the oceans to devour the precious moons of the people. They sought advice to Bathala on how to defeat Bakunawa and he said to create very loud noises to disturb the dragon. They succeeded, forcing Bakunawa to regurgitate the last moon and descend back into the oceans. She's still down there, waiting for the right time to devour the last moon and plunge humanity into total darkness.[/quote][/indent][/indent] [center][color=crimson][u] 𝗛𝗜𝗦𝗧𝗢𝗥𝗬 [/u][/color][/center] [indent][indent][quote]Bakunawa was one of the gods who were happy upon the creation of Colossus. This gave her the liberty of being free from the depths of the ocean. She had no knowledge of what happened to the other Filipino gods but it didn't concern her that much. She even liked the idea of being the only living god left in her pantheon but it did kind of made her feel lonely sometimes. Driven with the desire for power and revenge, Bakunawa had lived in solidarity with the humans, as if she had any other choice, to begin with. Unlike the other evil gods who wanted to turn over a new leaf and become better beings, Bakunawa chose to stay in the path of darkness. She adopted the human name and form of Jessica Mondragon who rose through the ranks of the criminal underworld until she was powerful enough to rule over her own crime syndicate, the Scarlet Dragon. Her syndicate specialized in trading illegal goods and even services in the black market, including counterfeit money and drugs among other things. As a cover-up for being a crime boss, Jessica was known as a philanthropist and entrepreneur who ran a charity to save species of turtles from being extinct. She did this to pay homage to her sister who was killed in the hands of mortals way back then. Of course, Bakunawa's mission didn't stop there. She committed grievous crimes in order to help spread more chaos to the world which was her way of punishing humans in killing her sister. She's also one of the gods who were actively seeking out the Colossus. She believed that if she could get her hands on it, she will gain power beyond her wildest dreams, the power that she needed to bring all the gods down to their knees and finally plunge the world into eternal darkness.[/quote][/indent][/indent][/hider]
