Etymology
The theme's name is a play on tenpai (
The members of the archetype are based on the Sānyuánpái (三元牌, lit. "Three fundamental tiles"), a group of three tiles used in mahjong. They are said to represent Heaven, Earth, and Man. Alternatively, it is also said that they represent the three core Confucian values. Western styles of mahjong refer to these three tiles as "Dragon tiles".
Their names are also a play on dora (ドラ), bonus tiles that add han value to a winning hand. Dora uses the same kana as the first two kana used for "dragon" (ドラゴン doragon).
The name of the related "Sangen" archetype is taken from Sangenpai, the Japanese reading of the aforementioned Sānyuánpái, but written with characters meaning "brilliant apparition". The name of each "Sangen" monster is a reference on a specific yaku, a hand pattern or condition that determines the value of a hand in that game.
