The '''snapdragon''' is a recurring monster in the {{DQSeries}}, first appearing in ''[[Dragon Quest VIII]]''. It is a powerful dragon brought to life from cursed rose vines.
 
==Characteristics==
Snapdragons are [[Dragon family|dragon]]s made from bushes of withered thorny vines, its head being green with deep red eyes. They are the most powerful monsters of their kind, using their thorn-covered vines to ensnare unlucky adventurers and then incinerate them with their powerful fire magic. Despite their high HP, the thorny dragons themselves are vulnerable to attack magic as well.
