The European dragon is what most people think when they hear "dragon". Big tall scaly lizard with wings that breathes fire.

The Asian dragon is more a serpent with arms/legs. Usually seen carrying an egg(though it looks like a pearl). While Asian dragons don't breathe fire, they are more agile. This is because they don't rely on limbs or wings for movement, but rather, and unknown gravity-canceling force.

The Native American Dragon is also known as Quetzalcoatl(Quet·zal·co·a·tl). There is only one. He is the feathered serpent god of the Aztec and Toltec peoples.

I prefer Asian Dragons, as they are just way cooler.

I like European dragons, I mean they have fire and are the dragons in Aragon.

I like European. Then Asian. To tell you the truth I had no idea Native Americans had dragons.

I'd have to go with those asian dragons. They had some messed up, but awesome, mythology and tales.

European are just better. I don't consider Quetzalcoatl a dragon, but rather a god.

Quetzalcoatl is referenced in FF8 (my favourite Final Fantasy) and is very pretty!!

In any case, my favourite are the European dragons. They are sleeker and prettier, I think... the Asian dragons are too bulky and don't even have wings! ^.^ Plus, I love the history that goes along with European dragons, medieval times were great! (Well, not the bubonic plague I suppose).

I prefer the European dragons, they have wings, and they can breathe fire. The Asian Dragons kinda freak me out...

When I think of "dragon" I think wings and breathing fire. I base it on the book Eragon. That is what I think they would look like (or similar)

Actually, Asian dragons are sleeker. European dragons are large and bulky.

Here's an Asian Dragon:

I love European dragons. With their long, slender, body and lack of wings, Asian dragons are associated with water and great power. European dragons are seen as evil fire-breathing flying monsters with wings. I love fire breathing dragons so I pick the European dragons.
