Separator

Type/Species: Drake
Origin: Huron Native American Folklore, North America

History: Angont is a vicious, poisonous reptile who supposedly dwelled in desolate places such as caves, forests, lakes, and other depths in the world. If close enough to humans, the Angont could reach out its coils and thereby bring about a number of problems to local inhabitants, such as disasters and diseases.1

Due to Angont's abilities, medicine mean sought this reptile out, hoping to gain cures via magical medicine. But its skin was so poisonous that nothing good came about from these searches.1

Symbolism: Unknown

Physical Description: This creature was said to be much like a drake - a huge reptile with venom and four legs.
