Dragons are large, sometimes winged creatures that are often used for guarding objects or places. They are younger than drakons.
Description[]
Dragons are extremely powerful and strong, with their hard scales that cannot be easily pierced by weapons such as swords or arrows.
The apples of immortality in the Garden of the Hesperides are protected by the dragon Ladon.
Another dragon, Peleus, is currently under employment of Camp Half-Blood, guarding the Golden Fleece that hangs on the pine tree on top of Half-Blood Hill.
Some automatons are made to resemble or represent dragons, such as Festus.
Dragons often make appearances in the Percy Jackson and the Olympians and The Heroes of Olympus series. In The Last Olympian, several were seen in the Lincoln Tunnel and according to Grover, a young dragon had appeared at Harlem and destroyed a dozen nature spirits.
In Dragon Pearl, the dragon (용/룡) is one of the most powerful beings in the Thousand Worlds. They can control weather and even help terraform planets.[1]
