Guivre

In legend they were portrayed as serpentine creatures who possessed venomous breath and prowled the countryside of Medieval France.

[5] Documentation points to their residence as being in small bodies of water like pools and lakes, forests, and any damp place.

[4] Samson of Dol was present at an encounter between a small dragon-like creature (known as "La Guivre") and a priest.

[citation needed] The beast in this story stayed in a cave for most of her time, then left to bathe only for a few minutes.

[citation needed] According to the Contes et légendes de Franche-Comté, the Vouivre is a unique gigantic snake like dragon, wearing a ruby on its forehead, and using it as its eye.
