 From Ancient Greece, Thyphon was said to have been a huge creature. One of the original Titans, Thyphon has a Humanoid-body with twin Snake-like arms (capable of stretching ANY direction). He is sometimes seen with a nest of Snakes (for legs). It was said Thyphon (and Echidna) created Cerebus, The Sphinx and many other mythical creatures. Defeated by the God Zeus, Thyphon was buried under Mount Etna. It is said when the mountain rumbles (or has any type of volcanic activity) is is really Thyphron (attempting to escape).
