Zahhak


An ancient king from Persian / Zoroastrain folklore. Zahhak was a just and wise king, until tempted by Ahriman (Satan,) who transformed him into a three headed-dragon like monster. Zahhak must feed the two serpent heads which sprout from his body the brains of human captives, less they turn on him and devour his own.
