The Dagon (うおがみ, Uogami, Fish God) is an enemy in the first Suikoden.
Information
The Dagon is a giant mysterious fish with limbs. During the Gate Rune War, many were seen around Kalekka and the Secret Factory. As well as attacking with the spear in its hands, it can also poison a target with its tail. It does not have outstanding abilities and should be easily defeated if you take advantage of its weakness to fire and wind attribute attacks.
