Editing Dragonlord (section)

==={{DQ}}===
The Dragonlord is the villain and final boss of the original game.

When encountered at [[Dragonlord's Castle|his castle]], the Dragonlord offers the {{Hero 1}} an opportunity to rule half of [[Alefgard]] with him. The {{Hero 1}} refuses and eventually defeats the Dragonlord in battle, retrieving the [[Sphere of Light]]

The {{Hero 1}} can accept the Dragonlord's offer to rule half the world; what happens after that differs between versions. In the {{Famicom}}/{{NES}} release, the Dragonlord mocks the {{Hero 1}} while the menus turn red, the screen fades to black, and the game freezes, implying the {{Hero 1}} has died. In the Japanese {{Famicom}} version, the Dragonlord also provides a special [[Spell of Restoration]] that starts the player off at level 1 with no equipment. In the remakes, accepting the Dragonlord's offer merely causes the {{Hero 1}} to faint and reappear outside [[Tantegel]] Castle.

The [[Dragonlord's great-great-grandson|grandson of the Dragonlord]] resides in the same location in {{Dragon Quest II}}. He is a character of core importance as he informs the [[Luminaries|heroes]] of their need to collect the [[5 Sigils|Crests]] and contact [[Rubiss]].

==={{DQ3}}===
Although not specifically mentioned, the Dragonlord inherits [[Zoma's Citadel]] sometime after [[Zoma]] was defeated by the {{Hero 3}} at the end of {{Dragon Quest III}}. Also, according to the ''[[The Emblem of Roto|Emblem of Roto]]'' manga, the [[Dragon Queen]]'s egg is most likely Dragonlord. However, the official guidebook states that the Dragonlord was a [[human]] who discovered he could control {{Dragon}}s, which led to some controversy. In the [[Dragon Quest III HD-2D Remake|HD-2D remake]], it is confirmed that the Dragonlord is the Dragon Queen's child and egg, while [[Hargon|the High Priest]] of [[Castle of the Dragon Queen|her castle]] raises him.

The Dragonlord appears as a {{Legacy Boss}} in this game. His map can only be obtained as a rare drop from [[Greygnarl]] in {{Grotto}}es. Unlike most other Legacy Bosses, he does not use magic, relying on breath attacks and physical attacks, and becomes [[enraged]] by anyone that inflicts a [[Critical Hit]] or whose spell goes haywire on him. Note that the Dragonlord is classified under the [[??? family]], which means [[Dragon Slash]] and related effects do not apply to him.

====Strategy====
You should have one or two healers and two main damage dealers. A character with 100 skill points in Fource
and another with the [[Skill_Manuals#Minstrel's_Manual|'Minstrel's Manual']] is important. [[Double Up]] is also viable. At the start of the battle, apply [[Gale Fource]] and support spells such as [[Oomph]] and [[Kabuff]]. Have your main healer cast [[Multiheal]] after every breath attack and a [[Sage]] with [[Kazing]] is to revive any {{Party 9}} member who gets hit with a critical attack. Your main damage dealer should use a multi-hit attack such as [[Multifists]] or [[Falcon Slash]] with a [[Falcon blade]]. If the boss casts [[Disruptive Wave]], apply your buffs again and keep hitting him until he goes down.

The Dragonlord (DracoLord at the time) acts as the boss of the Gate of Ambition and will attempt to draw [[Terry]] over to his side in the same way he attempts to bargain with the {{Hero 1}} in the original {{Dragon Quest}}. but even if you replied yes, he would laugh and still challenge you.

==={{DQB}}===
The nature of ''[[Dragon Quest Builders|Builders]]'' is a what-if story in which the {{Hero 1}} fell for the Dragonlord's ruse and took his offer for half the world. Warping the {{Hero 1}}'s mind into that of a bumbling barbarian, none stood in the Dragonlord's way as he cast the entire archipelago of [[Alefgard]] into darkness. Furthermore, the scaled sovereign placed a curse upon the population that blocked all memory of building from their minds--while a person may recognize the individual materials used to construct something, the moment they move to craft the curse activates and seals the person's memory of ''how'' the materials are used, effectively sending the population to the stone age and forcing them into an arduous existence living off the bare expanse of the despoiled land.

From his perverse perspective, the Dragonlord considered this to be an act of mercy--he states that through building [[human]]s rebel against their fates and in turn only bring upon more miserable ones to their lives. He explains that he had no choice but to muddle minds, for if he did not the world would be thrown out of balance and fall into ruin. As the Builder is the last remaining vestige of the spark of creativity, they must be snuffed out under his heel.

The Dragonlord is unimpressed with the [[Builder (Dragon Quest Builders)|Builder]], stating they are nothing more than but a mere puppet of [[Rubiss]]. Privy to the Goddess' forsaking of the Builder near the end of Chapter four, he attempts to use this schism and uncertainty to cloud the child's mind when he is bested in his humanoid form. Offering half the world, the Dragonlord states that the Builder's role in [[Rubiss]]'s scheme has ended and they should now allow themselves to be a slave to one that has already abandoned them. Whispering with a forked-tongue, he sweetens the deal by ''promising'' the land the Builder will inherit will not be one of ashen darkness that [[Alefgard]] has become, but one of light where they may build their own kingdom as they see fit. If the Builder refuses the offer, the Dragonlord points out that if they fail to defeat him then all the towns, villages, and friends they have made will be rent asunder.

==={{DQB2}}===
The Dragonlord is mentioned in passing by a [[Skeleton|crew member]] of Captain Whitebone’s ship, but otherwise he does not make any appearance. However, the player can unlock his throne if they have a save of ''[[Dragon Quest Builders]]'' on the same system, allowing them to temporary take his appearance whenever they sit on the throne.

==={{DQTreasures}}===
The Dragonlord is represented by [[List of treasures in Dragon Quest Treasures|statues]] of both his forms, with base values of 4,440,000  and 5,550,000 respectively.

The Dragonlord made his debut in the first card pack as a legendary rare card. Upon his death, he reveals his true form. Although he was restricted in normal use, he eventually appeared in the seventh card pack, "Strange Tale of Light and Darkness" under the title "Dragonlord, Incarnation of Evil". As a reference to his original appearance, the Dragonlord will offer the opponent half of the world. If the opponent agrees, the screen goes dark and they are defeated on the spot. If they refuse, he will inflict 4 damage to a random unit or the enemy leader.
*When the game's name was changed to {{Rivals Ace}}, the Dragonlord appeared as the boss of the Dragonlord's Castle in the Solo Battle Adventure Mode and eventually became an alternate leader character for the Demon Swordsman vocation.

The Dragonlord and his True Form appear as S-rank members of the [[??? family]] during the original ''Dragon Quest I'' event, both appearing on their own banners. [[Cosmic chimaera]] appears on the Dragonlord's banner, while [[Dark skeleton]] appears on his True Form's banner. Both can be faced as bosses in the story quests, with the Dragonlord being faced in Chapter 4, Episode 5, while his True Form is faced in Chapter 4, Episode 6. His humanoid form can also participate in the event Battle Road, as well as the [[Slime|Blossom Slime]]'s Battle Road as a party member. 

The Dragonlord's True Form, along with the other Demon Lords, could be challenged as part of the Fiendish Onslaught, as well. Either of the Dragonlord's forms could also be scouted by the player by redeeming their Dark Lord/Hero Meeting Ticket S.

===''[[Itadaki Street Special]]''===
The Dragonlord, in his [[human]] form, is a playable character in ''[[Itadaki Street Special]]''.

==={{SSB5}}===
While the Dragonlord himself doesn't appear in the game, he is referenced in the {{Hero Smash}}'s Classic Mode path on the seventh and final stage. He is initially represented by Robin (from ''Fire Emblem: Awakening'') in his blue outfit fought on Dracula's Castle (from ''Castlevania'') in its Ω form. After Robin is defeated, a giant purple Charizard (from ''[[Pokémon]]'') takes his place for the remainder of the fight. This two phase battle references the Dragonlord's two forms as a sorcerer and a {{Dragon}} in the original {{Dragon Quest}}.
