Dragon Dan is a cut gameplay mechanic from MediEvil. After drinking the Dragon Potion power-up, Sir Dan would transform into a red dragon. According to the game's producer, Chris Sorrell, Dragon Dan was cut due to taking up too much space in memory.[1] This is likely because of the unique model and its multiple animations. Its replacement, the Dragon Armour, utilises the existing Dan model (safe for swapping out a few parts) and only has one unique animation for breathing fire.
The Dragon Dan model can be found inside The Gallows Gauntlet WAD file in the MediEvil ECTS Pre-Alpha, suggesting that this may have been one of the levels, or perhaps the only level, where the Dragon Potion would have appeared.[2]

"…And when I say Dragon Dan, that’s literally what we originally hoped to do - to literally turn him into a dragon version of himself. I guess this was artwork exploring that idea. But sadly we didn’t have enough memory and had to make do with a cheap armor upgrade instead!" — Chris Sorrell (@Trepan) on X (formerly Twitter) (archived version at Internet Archive Wayback Machine).
