Mount Etna still spits forth the fire of this dragon. Some dragons are described as gigantic wingless worms or huge snakes, but most often they are viewed as immense winged lizards. Usually they breath fire. As one of the master-symbols of fantasy, almost everyone knows what a dragon looks like. However, the Eastern Dragon, particularly the Chinese Dragon, is viewed as wise, warmhearted, divine creature associated with the bringing of life-giving rains.
Some dragons can speak, and some have magical powers.
Dragon Magic is the oldest and most powerful magic of all. Mount Etna was also used in Greek mythology to hold down the giant, Enceladus. Most giants are quite human in appearance, but some have several heads or grotesque monstrous faces with huge fangs or tusks. The giant's personality varies from stupid, benign creatures to dreaded man-eaters. There are many creatures with human appearances.
