Warping the | 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. | ||

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 [ | The Dragonlord is unimpressed with the [[Builder (Dragon Quest Builders)|Builder]], stating they are nothing more than but a mere puppet of [[Rubiss]].

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. | ||

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. | The Dragonlord made his debut in the first card pack as a legendary rare card.
