Gladiator Bahamdia is based on the Bahamut or Bahamoot, a legendary creature from Arabian mythology. Known as the Arabian version of the Behemoth, the Bahamut is a ginormous fish that is said to "support the Earth"; so gigantic that humans are unable to see it, at all. While it is primarily a vast fish, a bull called Kujuta sits atop of it, with a ruby mountain on Kujuta and an angel on the ruby mountain that holds and supports the "seven Earths". While there are different interpretations of what lays over the Bahamut, it is also said to have layers of suffocating winds, a veil of darkness and mist beneath it.
