Despite its serpentine form and its Japanese name containing the Kanji and Furigana used for the Japanese name of the Sea Serpent, this card is not Sea Serpent-Type.
Ironically, nor is it a Dragon-Type, so it defies both Types it would seem to fall into.
The name Leviair is a combination of Levitation and Air. It may also come from Leviathan, a sea monster referenced in the Tanakh, or the Old Testament.
This monster could be based on Quetzalcoatl, a deity of Aztec mythology.
This is quite likely, since Quetzalcoatl means feathered-serpent and this card is WIND Attribute (feathered) and Aqua (serpent, though reptile would be appropriate, and sea serpent almost as much so).
The Empty-Space part from its translated Japanese name might be a reference to the Different Dimension as it can retrieve banished monsters to the field.
This card and Chaos Zone are the only cards that allow their user to Special Summon a monster from the opponent's Banished Zone to their side of the field.
