Skuld Bahamut is a neutral-elemental eidolon that appears in Final Fantasy Dimensions II. It is a stronger version of the Bahamut summon and can only be equipped by Morrow. The summon can be purchased in the Babil Tower exchange shop for 10,000 Babil points.
In the original free-to-play versions of the game it could only be obtained through the summon drawing shop and equipped by any party member.
Profile[]
According to the original Japanese free-to-play version description, Skuld Bahamut is an alternate version of Bahamut that controls the spacetime of the future. Due to this, it appears more mechanical and muscular than the other Bahamuts. In addition, it carries two large satellites hovering above it, serving as a replacement of Bahamut's traditional wings.
Gameplay[]
The summon's special attack is Gigaflare S, which deals heavy non-elemental damage to all enemies. Summoning Bahamut Skuld costs 3 points from the Consumption Gauge.

Etymology[]
Bahamut (Arabic بهموت Bahamūt) originated as an enormous whale in ancient pre-Islamic Arabian mythology. Upon Bahamut's back stands a bull with four thousand eyes, ears, noses, mouths, tongues and feet called Kujuta (also spelled "Kuyutha") (compared with the pair of Behemoth and Leviathan). Between each of these is a distance of a 500-year journey. On the back of Kujuta is a mountain of ruby. Atop this mountain is an angel who carries six hells, earth, and seven heavens on its shoulders.
Another version of the Arabic story is that Bahamut is indeed a dragon and he stands on a whale called Liwash.
In modern times, the game Dungeons & Dragons is responsible for reimagining Bahamut as the king of dragons, a benevolent Platinum Dragon; the opposite of the malevolent Tiamat, the five-headed Chromatic Queen of Dragons.
Skuld is a Norn in Norse mythology. Along with Urðr (Old Norse "fate") and Verðandi (possibly "happening" or "present"), Skuld makes up a trio of Norns that are described as deciding the fates of people.
