The '''Dragonlord''' is the main antagonist and final boss of the original {{Dragon Quest}}. Before the game starts, he steals the [[Sphere of Light]] from [[Tantegel]] Castle to unleash his forces of darkness upon [[Alefgard]]; he then kidnaps [[Princess Gwaelin]] to hold her hostage and prevent her father from challenging his new tyranny.

At the end of {{Dragon Quest}}, the {{Hero 1}} defeated the Dragonlord and restored peace to [[Alefgard]].

==Characteristics==
The Dragonlord resides in [[Dragonlord's Castle]] (Formerly referred to in past localizations as [[Dragonlord's Castle|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}}.

While around the size of the hero in older versions of the game, the Dragonlord towers over both his subjects and the humans of Tantegel in the HD-2D Remake, even in his untransformed form.

===Personality===
Being the first villain of the series, the Dragonlord displays several traits that would define the archetypal arch-fiend; he is a vain, power-hungry despot who will stop at nothing to get what he wants, whether it be imprisoning a maiden deep beneath the earth or wiping [[Damdara]] off the map just to make a point.

Though brutal and mindlessly savage at first glance, these actions are actually well planned tactics meant to secure the scaley lord's political power in [[Alefgard]]. As mentioned above, the kidnapping of the [[Princess Gwaelin|princess]] is meant to keep the king and citizens from so much as daring to think about standing up to him, and the obliteration of the kingdom's highest [[Damdara|commerce center]] meant that trade with [[Torland|outer lands]] would be crippled. Indeed, the very fact that the Dragonlord's first move in his plan was to steal the [[Sphere of Light]] shows that the would-be despot plans his actions very carefully.

When confronted by the {{Hero 1}}, the Dragonlord offers him the chance to split the world and rule half of it as his ally. This was an unprecedented move for a video game villain in 1986, when most antagonists had either no personality to speak of or theirs was confined to the pages of a manual. By offering to make a deal when cornered by the {{Hero 1}}, the Dragonlord proves that his aspirations are truly political in nature, and not blindly dedicated to chaos for chaos' sake. Indeed, {{Builders}} expands on this, indicating that he's more of a radical activist for {{MFamilies}}s and treats them very well, being seen as a king of kings by them. Additionally he has no desire to exterminate [[human]]ity, but rather wishes for monsters to rule over them the way (in his view) [[human]]s have ruled over {{MFamilies}}s.

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

===Select quotes===
*''"So, thou art come before me at last, {{Hero 1}}! And bearing tribute unto my glory in the form of [[Princess Gwaelin|a fair princess]] no less! Hm hm hm! I am honoured in deed!"''
*''"I am the Dragonlord, master of masters, king of kings! Long have I awaited this moment. Come! Take thy rightful place at my side! Do so, and I will grant unto thee dominion over half the world!"''
*''"What say'st thou? Wilt thou rule beside me?"''
*''"Thou art a fool!"''
*''" Very well. Then half of the world shall be thine. And if ever thou should fall in battle, I shall revive thee at no cost! Now, fall into a deep, dark sleep! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!"''

===Descendants===
In {{Dragon Quest II}}, a more friendly [[Dragonlord's grandson|descendant of the Dragonlord]] resides in the ruins of his [[Dragonlord's Castle|Castle]]. The child is very proud of his grandfather's attempt at world domination, and is very annoyed at [[Hargon]]'s own attempts, seeing the effort as an upstaging of his family's legacy. He aid's the {{Party 2}} by giving vital information regarding the [[5 Sigils]].

==Appearances==
==={{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.

==={{DQTact}}===
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}}.

==In animation==
The Dragonlord appeared as an antagonist to The N Team in {{Captain N}}, and worked with Mother Brain in his first appearance. In the show, he is a giant red dragon and lacks a [[human]] form.

Dragonlord appears in three episodes:
*Episode 7: "Three Men & A Dragon"
*Episode 23: "Trojan Dragon"
*Episode 24: "I Wish I Was a Wombatman" (Robotic replica)

The Dragonlord is the only character from a {{Main Series}} game to appear in both episodes, with a [[Blue dragon]] appearing in Episode 7, and [[Slime]]s, as well [[Knight Errant#Knight Aberrant|Axe knight]] appearing in Episode 23.

==Trivia==
*The Dragonlord bears a striking resemblance to Maleficent from Disney's ''Sleeping Beauty'', with both wielding staves, donning flowing, high-collared robes, having abnormally colored skin, yellow eyes, and possessing the ability to transform into large dragons that have purple coloration. Additionally, while it is unclear whether the Dragonlord has horns, a headpiece of some kind, or simply unusually-shaped hair, it is nevertheless similar in appearance to Maleficent's horned headpiece.
*The ''Dragon Quest 25th Anniversary Adventure History Book'' confirms that the Dragonlord is a descendant of the Dragon Queen, though it is unknown if he is her son or a descendant further down the family line.
*The Dragonlord will have special text if you free [[Princess Gwaelin]] from the [[green dragon]] and battle Dragonlord immediately afterwards, without dropping the beloved princess off at [[Tantegel]].

The '''Ghost Ship''' is a roaming ghost [[ship]] in {{Dragon Quest III}}.

The [[ship]] went down many years prior to the events of the game while [[Eric]] was caught onboard, dooming its crew to sail forever as they have not even realized they've died.

Eric's ghost and his [[Lovers' locket|locket]] can be found onboard, and obtaining his locket is essential to reuniting him with his lost lover [[Olivia]] to gain entrance to the [[List of shrines in Dragon Quest III#Olivia's Promontory|her promontory]].

==Appearances==
==={{DQ1&2HD}}===
The Ghost Ship is found underneath the seas of [[Torland]], and is accessible only by piloting the ship underwater.

==={{DQ3}}===
Finding the ship requires the use of the [[Boatman's Bone]]; without which, the ship will never appear to the {{Hero 3}} and {{Party 3}}. It's always in the inland sea between [[Romaria]], [[Asham]] and [[Isis|Ibis]].

'''Beran''' is a city in southwestern [[Torland]] in {{Dragon Quest II}}.

==Appearances==
==={{DQ2}}===
Beran is floating city located on a large lake surrounded by mountains. Players can access the city by taking the center teleportal in the [[List of shrines in Dragon Quest II#Fire Shrine|Fire Shrine]], or by docking the boat on the southwestern side of the island. The city houses a [[Bank]] and a [[Tombola]] wheel.

In the remakes of {{II}}, staying at the [[inn]] in Beran causes the [[Prince of Cannock]] to fall ill. The only cure is for the remaining [[Luminaries]] to travel east of [[Burrowell]] and retrieve a [[Yggdrasil leaf]] from a forest on a small island south of the subterranean town.
