Dragon is a term used to describe a number of mythological creatures which share at least some of the following features...

  • reptilian features (scales, short ration of leg length to body length, tail, etc.)
  • large size
  • flight (possibly, but not necessarily, with wings)
  • being able to expell fire from their mouths

It is also used to refer to several catagories of Real Life reptiles (Komodo Dragons, Bearded Dragons and so forth)
