Dragons (or Sea Serpents) are mythological creatures found commonly in folklore and fantasy stories. Many of the myths are believed to be loosely based on real creatures such as [[dinosaurs]], [[alligators]], [[crocodiles]] and [[Komodo Dragons]]. Legendary sea serpents such as [[Loch Ness]], Gaasyendietha and Argont have never been proven to actually exist, but there is plenty of mythological evidence to suggest large lizards did roam the earth at one point (and were either killed in a disaster or hunted to [[extinction]]).

Legendary sea serpents such as [[Loch Ness]], Gaasyendietha and Argont have never been proven to exist, but it is likely that they originate in the same myths as other dragons. Crocodilians in particular are perfect candidates for legends of sea dragons, as they have been recorded to grow to truly impressive sizes in some cases.

Though European dragons are almost always regarded as evil, or at the least, mere predators, dragons in Eastern mythology tend to be regarded as divine creatures, as often benevolent as neutral or evil.
