"W" is
for Wyvern. A wyvern is a
legendary winged reptilian creature with a dragon's head,
the hindquarters of a snake or lizard with two legs or none,
and a barbed tail. The wyvern was often found in mediaeval
heraldry. The word is derived from Middle English wyvere,
from Old North French wivre "viper". Wyverns are mentioned
in Dante's Inferno (Canto XVII) as the body for one of his
creatures in hell.
