It can bite down on enemies with their razor-sharp fangs, swipe at multiple foes with their long and powerful tails, and it can breathe out intense flames, as well of those of pure darkness while casting magic, though only in ''X''. In some spinoff games, they are also capable of breathing out flames of pure darkness or exhaling intense blasts of wind, as well. Their scales make them impervious to many forms of attack. In most cases, they are not as powerful as their golden-scaled cousins, with the ''Joker'' series of games being a notable exception. | ||

A black dragon plays a major role at the beginning of the game during the [[Hero (Dragon Quest XI)|Luminary]] and [[Erik]]'s escape from the dungeons of [[Heliodor]] Castle. After losing the trail of a group of Heliodorian guards in the sewers, the duo find themselves in a dragon's lair and accidentally rouse the black dragon sleeping there. They are forced to make a run for it as it is far too powerful for them to face at this point. | A black dragon plays a major role at the beginning of the game during the [[Hero (Dragon Quest XI)|Luminary]] and [[Erik]]'s escape from the dungeons of [[Heliodor]] Castle.
