The Infernal serpent is an Eastern Dragon with purple scales and yellow eyes. Unlike the wise dragons of Asian myth, these wyrms are little more than vicious beasts. According to their bestiary description in Dragon Quest Monsters: The Dark Prince, they are the fully grown form of a Salamander fry.

EtymologyEdit
- Infernal describes hellish or insufferably bad conditions and temperament.
- Salamander refers to the ancient Greek myth of the amphibians being born from flame. This misconception grew from the newts fleeing the logs they rested in once they were tossed into blazing hearths, and is referenced in the monster's description for The Dark Prince.
