Timsor the Crocodile is a son of Bhamut, called the Lord of Depths and Father of Monsters.
He appears as a massive crocodile-headed god, armored in scales, wearing the tattered regalia of river-kings. He bears a stone hammer heavy enough to shatter ships.
Timsor embodies the ferocity and abundance of rivers — at once giver of fertile soil and bringer of drowning death. Inherited from Bhamut, his blood carries the essence of divinity crossed with the chaos of his beastly mother, making him feared even among gods.
He commands crocodiles and river-serpents, and his roar is said to shake mudbanks into collapse. Timsor’s hammer is not a tool of craft, but of destruction — when it strikes water, it summons sudden floods.
He is both guardian and devourer: farmers pray for his floods to bring fertile silt, yet they fear his appetite, for he drowns those who fail in their offerings.
Devotees see him as a necessary terror: harsh but life-giving. They pour blood and fish into the waters to sate his hunger. His festivals coincide with the annual floods, celebrated with feasts on riverbanks and ritual boat races in his honor.
Timsor despises his cousin Talan of the Waves, seeing the dolphin-rider’s freedom and lightness as mockery of his own heavy, lurking power. He shares an uneasy pact with Sabha the Jackal: the crocodile rules the rivers, the jackal the tombs. Between them, water and death meet.
