Types of Dragons

True Dragons
The true Dragon is the most commonly used version of the Western Dragon, a large winged reptile with four feet. The other dragons are only sub-species, and not the real thing, except for the Eastern Dragon. The Eastern Dragon is snakelike and has four legs. It can fly, even though the wings may be branchlike or nonexistant.
