If you like big splashy critters Kaalia isn't a bad choice; however, beGreen is correct in that she can be a trap for new players who tend to lean too heavily on her. If you go that route, I'd suggest packing quite a bit of tutors and recursion to support your deck if she goes down.
Rakdos, Lord of Riots is another option for you, he's cheap and fast and make your big monsters come down pretty quickly. Black has plenty of decent card draw and utility, but you'll hurt on mana so pack some mana rocks in there and at least a few things that put lands on the board like Expedition Map, Burnished Hart, and Solemn Simulacrum. IF you decide on him pack in plenty of card draw as your hand will go pretty quickly, and make sure to put in Pestilence and Pyrohemia these are bombs in those big critter decks. You can usually pump 4 or 5 damage into them and kill off smaller troublesome critters and pave a path for your fatties.
If you do decide to go with Kaalia, don't put iona in your deck, she's such a d-bag card. Don't be that guy.
Welcome, to commander. Remember it's not a format that is about winning it's about fun--for everyone at the table.

No one spoke. There was no need. The threat of the Eldrazi presented a simple choice: lay down your arms and die for nothing, or hold them fast and die for something.
