Got some interesting sniz about Albion's last name Gwiber. Gwiber in Welsh means viper or adder but many centuries ago actually meant “flying snake” and were belived to be snakes turned into dragons. They live in caves close to river banks or lakes, praying on fish and occasionally livestock. They were considered to be very poisonous and if bitten by one the bite would prove fatal within a few hours. Albion’s appearance is snake-like so this references the Gwiber’s appearance and Albion’s poison ability references the Gwiber’s poison.
