==Trivia==

*Serpentine dragons greatly resemble Fell Beasts from Peter Jackson's films The Lord of the Rings
*Serpentine dragons can only be found on Solstheim.
==Bugs==
* Sometimes, when trying to kill a serpentine dragon, it does not die. Instead, it will continue to fly above without a health meter.
**Solution: Use Bend Will on the dragon, it will try to land but instead it will crash and die.
* Serpentine dragons spawned using the console may not give souls when killed.
* When in combat, a dragon soul will be absorbed even though the dragon is still alive and hostile. The same visual effects when a soul is absorbed will occur—including the dragon's flesh burning—leaving behind a flying skeletal dragon. It cannot be killed afterwards. Loading a previous save is the only known fix for non-PC versions.
** This can be fixed with the kill command on the console. Target the dragon and use the command on it before it is fully absorbed. This will fix the bug on future encounters of the same dragon type.
