The Leviathan or Dragon of the sea is one of the first mentioned se monsters and goes back to the book of genesis. It has sometimes been blamed for tsunamis and it is said that when it rises to the surface the water boils above it. Legend has it that the leviathans skin is like a double coat of mail and it has scales the size of shields. It is said that swords and any other sharp weapons would bounce of the beasts back not leaving a scratch on it. The leviathan is also said to breath smoke from its nostrils and fire from its mouth. Its fins have been said to radiate light and his eyes are said to be bright as the sun. It is said that God created two of these creatures but had to kill one of them so they couldn't breed or it would be the end of mankind.
