Profile
Origin
Earth Dragon could possibly be a pun on 地龍/竜 or 土龍/竜, both literally translating to "earth dragon." 地龍 is used to mean such in Chinese, but is also used to mean earthworm in traditional Chinese medicine. On the other hand, 土竜 is used to mean "mole" in Japanese, with folk stories discussing moles turning into flowers and before emerging as dragons.
In the Chinese sense, earth dragons cannot fly, and are thus not regarded as celestial beings, unlike dragons such as Qinglong and Huanglong. One was mentioned in the History of the Southern Dynasties[a] as a parable for a general's defeat.
Design
Earth Dragon's design is that of an earth worm, as its design is reused from the demon Worm. This is likely to redouble the 地龍 pun.
