The Order of the Dragon symbol is what Vlad the Impaler, better known as Dracula, was said to wear signifying his membership in the Order.

The Order of the Dragon was founded in 1408, by Sigismund, the King of Hungary for the purpose of defending the Cross and fighting against the enemies of Christianity, especially the Ottoman Turks.
