The weapon ' s feature of using the whiskers of the dragon are more aligned with the aspects of the Asian dragon , where they are often depicted with whiskers ( attributed either to Rat ' s features , where the Dragon is said to be the amalgamation of the Chinese Zodiac pantheon , or the carp , which they are said to descend from ) . The inclusion of a dragon ' s breath in the tip of the whisker also alludes rather to , instead of a Western dragon ' s fiery breath , the cloudy and ki infused breath of the Asian dragon .
