The dragons of ancient Greece were like huge serpents several millennia older than dragons. They had no wings or legs.  The English word dragon comes from the Greek word “drakon.” This word originally meant huge serpent. Ancient Greek dragons lived in caves near water. They often guarded springs, shrines and treasures. They had excellent eyesight and often slept with their eyes open. They could grow up to forty metres in length and their body contained poisonous black gore. They had a golden crest on top of their head that flashed light and a triple-forked tongue that absorbed nutrients to make venom. They would kill their victims by injecting venom into them with their fangs, or by squeezing them to death. They also made a blood-chilling hissing sound. They were first mentioned in The Sea of Monsters and are later seen in The Battle of the Labyrinth, The Last Olympian, The Demigod Diaries and The House of Hades. One drakon mentioned in the myths was of Sosipolis, a son of Eileithyia,

According to Eastern culture, they are often represented as Gods or Kings, have protective and religious properties, so they are very revered. Wyrm belongs to the type of earth dragon. Wyrm is described as having the body shape of a long and extremely large snake (probably the body of a giant python), the head is like a dragon's head, often seen with horns, legs, scales, and claws of dragons.

Perhaps over time, moving places and deep in the continent caused the Wyrm to be form

An Amphiptere (also called Amphithere, Amphitere, or Phipthere; meaning bi-winged, two-winged) is a type of winged serpent found in European heraldry. There are three species of amphiptere, (Draco americanus tex, Draco americanus mex, Draco americanus incognito) living in the Americas. This is a species of dragon that is a cross between a snake and a bird, where they have a snake body from head to tail and have wings. Amphipteres generally were said to have light-colored feathers like a sunrise, a serpentine body similar to a snake, bat-like wings with feathers covering most of the forearm and often greenish in coloration, and a long tail much like a wyvern's . Others are described as entirely covered in feathers with a spiked tail, bird-like wings, and a beak-like snout that looks like an extra claw. Even more uncommon is the description of one with legs. However, they only have front legs and never hind legs.

Enenra (en'enra, lit. "lightweight-fabric smoke"), sometimes enraenra  is a yōkai, or Japanese monster, composed of smoke and darkness.  Enenras mostly reside in bonfires; when they emerge, they take human shape or form.

Enenras are mostly considered to be demons or divine beings of darkness and smoke; legend says that there are two types of enenras, the first and most common type being enenras who are born purely as enenras, whilst the second and more rarely occurring type are humans who have died and been transformed into enenras.

Dodomeki is a yōkai in Japanese mythology. Its original form was a giant, ferocious and cruel carnivorous demon. The demon was over ten meters tall, had spiky hair, and had hundreds of glowing eyes all over its body. Its mouth can spew toxic fumes. Its body burst into flames, wrapping around its body and burning everything but its body. Dodomeki can disguise themselves as a human in the form of a human woman with very long arms covered with small bird eyes. It is said that girls who have a habit of stealing money will be cursed to become Dodomeki. At that time, hundreds of small bird eyeballs sprouted from their arms and they transformed into this monster. This is thought to be related to the Japanese dōsen, a bronze coin with a hole in the center that looks like a bird's eye, commonly known as a chōmoku (Birds eye). Legend : A long time ago, in what was now Tochigi Prefecture, there lived a nobleman named Fujiwara no Hidesato. He had just been given the title of kokushi of Shimots

Amikiri are small, crustacean-like, shrimp- or lobster-like yokai. They are described as a combination of several species: snake, bird, lobster. They have long, red, multi-segmented bodies, bird-like beaks, and two arms similar to the claws of a crayfish or a scorpion. It uses its claws to cut fisherman nets and mosquito nets. This habit and their behavior leads people to regard them as a pest. They can fly through the air like a fish swimming in water, and are quite shy, rarely appearing before humans. A story from Yamagata Prefecture tells of a fisherman who one day discovered that his fishing net had been cut so small that it was worthless. He suspected it was caused by an amikiri. The next day, he paid special attention to hiding his nets at his home, where they couldn't be found by any wandering yokai.
