Dragons (ドラゴン) are the most powerful type of monster.

Appearance

Dragons generally look like huge reptiles covered in thick scales of various colours, sport large teeth and claws, and grow horns on their heads as well as webbed wings on their backs. Some of them though have the ability to transform into a human form.

Overview

Dragons do not only possess incredible strength and astonishing endurance to physical and magical attacks, but are also high Intellect stats. Since they are the embodiment of Magical Power, their horns, scales, fangs and even their blood are valuable materials, and Dragons also have enough mana in their bodies to damage even a Lich. They, however, possess a weak spot right on their back, as a inverse scale, that grows upside down.

While Dragons are known for eating unusual things, like gold, to collect shiny items and end up hoarding a lot of treasure, they are also able to trade and understand human speech and even make deals with humans, as seen in their partnerships with Dragon Knights. However, on their society, the strong eats the weak, so they usually just listen the strongest ones.
