Vertigo, Goddess of insanity

Vertigo is a human sorceress who mastered the art of transformation, millions of years ago she was imprisoned within the moon by the mad wizard Balsafas, until the great cataclysm finally released the mystic bonds that held her fast and enabled her to engage the other gods of the new Urth head to head in a beast form of her own. She plans to enslave the entire human race by stripping all of their free will.

Vertigo is a character from the video game Primal Rage. (c) Atari Games.

The Khmer dragon

The Khmer dragon (called a Neak,) is similar to the Indian Naga. They are depicted as cobras with multiple heads, the odd numbered being male with even being female. The more heads a Neak has, the higher it's rank.

Basilisk

The Basilisk begins it's life cycle as an egg impossibly laid by a rooster, which is then incubated by a snake. The resulting creature is so incredibly venomous that even it's gaze can poison and kill. As it walks it's breath dries up the grass and vegetation around it, leaving trails of death in it's wake.

Modern folklorists have theorized that stories of the Basilisk may have sprung from accounts of the Indian spitting cobra.
