Dragon Cave - A Catalogue of Dragons
The only images used here are from my scroll or used with the scroll owner's permission (which will be stated). This is simply designed to give users an idea of the range and type of Dragons available in the game, and new players an idea of what to aim at! (Graphic from webweaver)
Happy Hatching!
To avoid breaking the rules, I am not posting pictures of eggs or hatchlings on here - finding out what egg turns into what dragon is up to you.

La Femme Draconis
Not all Dragons have different male and female sprites. However a good collector will get one of each anyway, since there is a project in the works that will do exactly that in the future!

The Newest Common Dragons:



Pink Dragons have different male and female sprites:
All Female Commons - no longer available
Ladies only - for historical interest.
These two species were originally common dragons which were female only, making them useful for balancing your scroll.
The Bright Pink Dragon was originally simply the Pink Dragon. It has been replaced by the current Pink Dragon (which has both genders) and is no longer available either through breeding or cave. The Bright Pink Dragon does not have the Influence Ability of the current Pink Dragon.
The Purple Dragon was originally female only. However in 2010 a male purple dragon was drawn and released, making the species a standard common dragon.
Discontinued Dragons

Bright Pink Dragons and Frill Dragons (shown left) are two examples of this.

There are two types of Drake, Glory Drakes and Ochre Drakes. While Ochre Drakes are comparatively common, Glory Drakes are rare and hard to get hold of. Glory Drakes are further split into Night Glory and Day Glory Drakes.
Pigmy Dragons
A class of Mini Dragon:
As of June 2011, there are now entire Subspecies of Pigymy Dragon. All of these can interbreed with each other, or the Pumpkin Dragons, although Pumpkin Dragons will only produce another pigmy, except at certain times of the year. (shown female/male)

Event Dragons and More
Special Dragons
Papers, Chickens, and More
Known types:
Cheese Dragon
Chicken
Paper Dragons
Paper Dragons, and Chickens among others fall into this category. They are in extremely high demand and can be difficult to get as they are as rare in the Cave drops as Golds, and can't be bred.
To get one you have to snag it from the cave or, if you are exceptionally lucky, from the abandoned page.

Cheese Dragon
(Thanks Herk)
Dinosaurs
Known types:
Red Dinosaur
Yellow Dinosaur
Green Dinosaur
Blue Dinosaur
Purple Dinosaur
Event Dragons
Only available once a year

A Christmas 2008 Dragon

A Christmas 2009 Dragon
Event Dragons may be breedable only on the day of the event. Some, such as Halloween have different male and female sprites.
Known types
Christmas (different each year)
Halloween
Valentine's
I missed the Valentine's drop, so here is a link to the announcement if you want to see what they look like: Valentine's
Vampire Dragons
A former Halloween Dragon

A Male Halloween Dragon

A Female Halloween Dragon
Vampire Dragons cannot breed as other dragons do. Instead they have a "Bite" command. Every four weeks you can use the "Bite " command on one egg on your scroll. That egg will either die or turn into a Vampire Dragon. However, there is a chance that the egg will be removed from your scroll if the bite is successful, as the other dragons reject it.
Others
Alts
Sometimes breeding a black or vine with another dragon will produce a Dragon that looks different as an adult (the eggs are indistinguishable).
Variants
These are new dragons, which when they are eggs have exactly the same description as an existing type of dragon. However they are bred from another species, and look slightly different. If you get something that is described as an existing species but doesn't look like it, hold on to it! You might have a variant.
Geodes

Breed two Dragons of the same type together and get an egg of another kind. Hold onto it and see what hatches. That's all I am saying.
Strange rumours and discontinued dragons
older dragons and eggs
Zombie dragons
Neglected Dragons
Apparently at least one of these has been re-introduced, but is exceptionally difficult to get. I don't have either.
New Dragons
Three new dragons These have been labelled "Legendary dragons". It remains to be seen which class of dragon they fit into.
