Sekhmet
The Witch of Sloth, too lazy to breathe, who drove the dragon Volcanica past the Great Waterfall.
Sekhmet holds the title of Witch of Sloth, and a single word, lazy, sums her up, in looks as much as in character. Even one breath strikes her as a pain to take, and a gloomy atmosphere hangs about her.

Background
Her clan had hopes for her before her birth, expecting her to bring back the founder they called God; the child disappointed them, and as punishment they treated her with disdain and abandoned her. Years afterwards, word of a wild woman in the mountains drew men who captured her and brought her down to the city, and there she picked up knowledge, a way of living and emotions. What she felt was gratitude and obligation, though she did not know it yet, and in the end she snapped the necks of the men she lived among and walked away.
Back in her homeland she wiped out the whole clan, again without grasping that hatred and a wish for revenge were driving her, then returned to bury the men she had killed properly; once alone she found a peace of mind that made her happy. More than 400 years ago she chased the dragon Volcanica past the Great Waterfall purely so she could rest, the two fought, and Sekhmet fell from the Great Waterfall to her death. Mai Nakahara voices her in Japanese and Nicole Gose in English.
