Bai Ze (Chinese)

Bai Ze is a mythical beast in ancient China. It can speak, understand the feelings of all things, and know the affairs of ghosts and gods, and only appears when "the king has virtue", and can ward off all evil spirits on earth. According to the History of Yuan, the white tiger has a horned head and a dragon body. According to "Ming Ji Li", Bai Ze has a dragon head with green hair and horns, and four legs in the shape of flying.

It was encountered by the Yellow Emperor or Huang Di while he was on patrol in the east. Thereafter the creature dictated to Huang Dì a guide to the forms and habits of all 11,520 types of supernatural creatures in the world, and how to overcome their hauntings and attacks. The emperor had this information written down in a book that no longer exists, but many fragments of it survive in other texts.
