Dragon family

File:DQ Green Dragon.png

Dragon Family (Japanese Katakana: ドラゴン Romanji:Doragon) refers to monsters in Dragon Quest series that take on forms of traditional Western and Eastern dragons, dinosaurs, snakes, and turtles. Occasionally, dragon-shaped monsters or pallet-swaps are classified as members of the Aquatic or Beast families.

The shapes and capabilities of dragons within the series are as varied as in real-world mythology, but these monsters typically have the ability to breathe fire and many possess skills that can envenom enemies. In the Monster series of games, Dragons are one of the main families. They possess high attributes, though they level up slowly.
