Breathes out a jet of "dragonfire", which can still injure things that are immune to normal fire, for example the otherwise nigh immortal {{L|Bronze colossus}} (dragonfire is, however, a blockable attack if its victim is using a shield). Some creatures are immune to dragonfire {{verify}}. Dragons are the largest creatures in the game, and grow into their adult size of 25,000,000 after 1000 years. | |

You need a {{L|dungeon master}} to tame a Dragon, but if you can do it, you'll have a massively valuable pet. Dragons can also be tamed as war or hunting animals at the {{L|kennel}}. You may have to watch out, though, as a Dragon can seriously damage a fortress with one blast of ill-timed dragonfire. See {{L|fire}} for details. |

It is possible to equip Dragons, Hydras and Bronze Colossi with any armor type in the arena. |
