The '''Dragonlord''' ('''''King Dragon''''', '''DracoLord''') is the main antagonist and final boss of the original ''[[Dragon Warrior|Dragon Quest]]''. Before the game starts, he steals the [[Ball of Light]] from [[Tantegel|Tantegel Castle]], and plots to unleash his forces of darkness upon [[Alefgard]]; he kidnaps [[Princess Gwaelin]] for unknown reasons, and set one of his dragons to guard her. It is also interesting to note that the Dragonlord looks much like "Sleeping Beauty's" Maleficent, who also turns into a dark purple dragon.

At the end of ''Dragon Warrior'', the [[Hero (Dragon Warrior)|hero]] defeated the Dragonlord and returned peace to all of [[Alefgard]].
The '''Dragonlord''' is the main antagonist of [[Enix Corporation|Enix's]] ''[[Dragon Warrior]]''.


==Origins==
<small>''This section requires [[List of Proposed Policies|verification]]''.</small>


Originally, he is an unhappy man of [[Alefgard]] who dwells in a cave. One day he explored deeper into his cave and found a dragon. He was more astonished when he found he could control the beast.  From this point on, he was known as the Dragonlord, and he moved to [[Charlock Castle]].
==Characteristics==
The Dragonlord resides in Charlock castle, which is located to the southeast across the water from Tantegel castle. Within the castle, the Dragonlord resides on the bottom-most level. Throughout the game, the Dragonlord never leaves the castle, similar to [[Hargon]] in ''[[Dragon Quest II]]''.


==Role in ''Dragon Warrior''==
[[Image:Dragonlordvinyl.png|right|thumb|The Dragonlord's second form.]]
[[Image:Dragonlordvinyl.png|left|The Dragonlord's second form.]]
When confronted by the [[Hero (Dragon Quest I) |Hero]], the Dragonlord offers him a chance to rule the world by his side. The Hero is then presented with an opportunity to answer 'yes' or 'no'. Answering 'yes' causes the screen to fade to black as if the Hero had been fainted/killed in battle. Answering 'no' results in the start of the battle with the Dragonlord.


Attacking [[Tantegel Castle]], the Dragonlord stole the [[Ball of Light]].  He also kidnapped [[Princess Gwaelin]] and set one of his dragons to guard her. At the end of ''Dragon Warrior'', the [[Hero (Dragon Warrior)|hero]] must defeat the Dragonlord's human form first.  He then transforms into his dragon form.  If the hero defeats him in his dragon form then peace will return to all of [[Alefgard]].
In battle, the Dragonlord appears as a humanoid sorcerer who possesses the skill of magic but is fairly weak, physically speaking. After receiving enough damage, the Dragonlord transforms into a more powerful, dragon form (his "true" form). The music also changes to the final battle theme.

The Dragonlord (King Dragon, DracoLord) is the main antagonist and final boss of the original Dragon Quest. Before the game starts, he steals the Ball of Light from Tantegel Castle, and plots to unleash his forces of darkness upon Alefgard; he kidnaps Princess Gwaelin for unknown reasons, and set one of his dragons to guard her. It is also interesting to note that the Dragonlord looks much like "Sleeping Beauty's" Maleficent, who also turns into a dark purple dragon.

At the end of Dragon Warrior, the hero defeated the Dragonlord and returned peace to all of Alefgard.


Characteristics

The Dragonlord resides in Charlock castle, which is located to the southeast across the water from Tantegel castle. Within the castle, the Dragonlord resides on the bottom-most level. Throughout the game, the Dragonlord never leaves the castle, similar to Hargon in Dragon Quest II.

The Dragonlord's second form.

When confronted by the Hero, the Dragonlord offers him a chance to rule the world by his side. The Hero is then presented with an opportunity to answer 'yes' or 'no'. Answering 'yes' causes the screen to fade to black as if the Hero had been fainted/killed in battle. Answering 'no' results in the start of the battle with the Dragonlord.

In battle, the Dragonlord appears as a humanoid sorcerer who possesses the skill of magic but is fairly weak, physically speaking. After receiving enough damage, the Dragonlord transforms into a more powerful, dragon form (his "true" form). The music also changes to the final battle theme.

Descendants

In Dragon Warrior II a somewhat more friendly descendant of the Dragonlord resides in Charlock Castle.
