1 Dragons, legendary reptilian monsters with wings, huge claws, and fiery breath. In some folklore dragons symbolize destruction and evil. In the sacred writings of the ancient Hebrews, and later in Christianity, the DRAGON frequently represents death and evil. In certain mythologies, however, such as those of the ancient Greeks and Romans, the dragon possesses powers of good. Partially as a result of the conception of the monster as a benign, protective influence, and partially because of its fearsome qualities, it has been employed as a military emblem by many different cultures over time.
2 Thick, long bodied, scaly skin, four strong legs, two bat-like wings, wedge-shaped heads, and long necks. They usually are portrayed as breathing fire. Some breeds of these Dragons have been known to be shape changers, and others have the chameleon power to change color of their background. They are sometimes displayed as having a spade or spiked tail. They can be any color, or many colors, depending on the breed of the dragon.
3 The dragon also figures in the mythology of various Asian countries. It is deified in Daoism (Taoism) and was the national emblem of the Chinese Empire. It is regarded as a symbol of good fortune in the Chinese tradition.
