The (Japanese: {{hover|かいりゅう|Kairyū}} ''Sea Dragon'') is a [[class]] and subspecies of [[dragon]] that has never made an official appearance in the {{FES}}. While data for the Sea Dragon class is present in {{FE3}}, it is never used, and the Sea Dragon is not present in any form in any other installment. Its moving map sprite resembles a sea serpent in appearance, while its battle sprite is the same as a [[Fire Dragon]]. It can move freely in seas, similarly to [[Pirate]]s.
The '''Sea Dragon''' (Japanese: {{hl|かいりゅう|Kairyū}} ''Sea Dragon'') is a [[class]] and subspecies of [[dragon]] that has never made an official appearance in the {{FES}}. While data for the Sea Dragon class is present in {{FE3}}, it is never used, and the Sea Dragon is not present in any form in any other installment. Graphically, the only remnants are its map animations. Its moving map sprite resembles a sea serpent in appearance, while its battle sprite is the same as a [[Fire Dragon]]. It can move freely in seas, similarly to [[Pirate]]s.


As it is a dragon class, it may have been intended to be usable as a [[manakete]] transformation; however, no transformation [[Stone (weapon)|stone]] that would allow for such a transformation survives in the game's code, and no [[Breath (weapon)|breath]] weapon, existing or otherwise, is known to be associated with the class. However, it can use any breath that is cheated into its inventory.
As it is a dragon class, it may have been intended to be usable as a [[manakete]] transformation; however, no transformation [[stone]] that would allow for such a transformation survives in the game's code, though a leftover name string in the game's debug menu, the "Sea Dragonstone" (Japanese: {{hl|かいりゅうせき|Kairyū seki}} ''Sea Dragonstone''),<ref>{{Cite web| quote= Evidently, this slot was once intended for a matching dragonstone for the unused ocean dragon class. It was eventually replaced with the Part 2 variant of Aum. | url= https://tcrf.net/Fire_Emblem:_Monshou_no_Nazo/Debug_Menu | title= Fire Emblem: Monshou no Nazo/Debug Menu | site= tcrf.net |retrieved=July 25, 2017}}</ref> suggests there was one in development at some point. No [[breath]] weapon, existing or otherwise, is known to be associated with the class; however, it can use any breath that is cheated into its inventory.


While not coded into the game, a sea dragon boss, known as Neptune (Japanese: {{hover|ネプチューン|Nepuchūn}} ''Neptune''), was planned to be featured in {{FE1}}. It was supposed to attack with tornadoes rather than breath, and its attack animation was intended to have it conjure a spell with its hands.<ref>[http://serenesforest.net/2016/01/07/making-of-shadow-dragon-nes/ Making of ''Shadow Dragon'' (NES) - Serenes Forest]</ref>

==Trivia==
*While the Sea Dragon has yet to make an official appearance within the {{FES}}, [[First Dragon|water-elemental dragons]] do appear in {{FE14}}, although they are very different in appearance, and do not possess the ability to traverse water terrain.
*The [[Dagon (class)|Dagon]], a dragon class appearing in {{FE15}}, may be a modern incarnation of, or at least inspired by, this unused concept. Dagons are sea-dwelling dragons that make use of water-based breath attacks.
