* BladeOnAStick: The trio that went after Jake used a spear with a lock of Sphinx hair attached to it.

* BladeOnAStick: Several members of Tiburons’ Sharkmada were armed with spears.

** Jake has shown to extend his [[OverlyLongTongue tongue]] to be as long as his own height in human form, perhaps longer. It’s both dexterous and versatile, essentially an extra hand kept in their mouths. In combat, Jake used it to twirl and deflect the Huntsman's net back at him.

* AbsurdlySharpClaws: All dragons have them and it’s a literal case: Jake once cut through a rope simply by stepping on it. Aside from battle, they’re also useful for digging or slicing vegetables.

* BreathWeapon: A given, comes in the usual [[PlayingWithFire fire breath]] form, but also diversify into [[ShockAndAwe electric]] and [[AnIcePerson ice]] flavors. This breathweapon seems to originate in their stomachs and can as such be used as {{Fartillery}} as well.

* NaturalWeapon: Several: Claws, check, fangs, check, [[TailSlap tail]], check, dragon breath, double check. Depending on the situation, even the tongue can be useful in combat.

* EvenBadMenLoveTheirMamas: The biker trolls take good care of their mama when she’s turned to stone. Also serves as their {{BerserkButton}}.

* {{Shapeshifter}}: According to Lao-shi, dragons are natural shapeshifters, but usually only from human to dragon form. They can transform fully or [[DraconicHumanoid partially]], granting them great versatility without being discovered by humans in the process. The ability to shapeshift into other individuals or creatures can be accessed by using a magical potion, but for the 24 hours it lasts, their normal dragon powers aren’t accessible and they’re thus vulnerable to enemies.

* {{Shapeshifting}}: Nixes are forced to transform from human into their Nix form, gaining wings, claws, fangs, snakebodies and general axe-craziness. The process is by no means pleasant for them.

* {{Magitek}}: Paired with {{TheEngineer}}, Elves have their own scientific organization that produces innovative magical devices which are based on present day technology. The organization is called [[FunWithAcronyms “N.E.R.D”]], which stands for '''N'''ew '''E'''lven '''R'''esearch in '''D'''evelopment. Fu dogs’ description/summarization of them isn’t flattering:
--> '''Fu Dog''': Bunch of Tech dweeb elves working on inventing new magical objects, talk about putting the Eek in Geek!

The [[OurMermaidsAreDifferent classical mermaids and mermen]]. They have an underwater city in Eastriver.

This statement itself is immediately afterwards undermined by her biting into a rubberboat or later when she gorges herself on a dinner table in front of a very surprised family of dragons.

* ThreateningShark: Naturally given their {{Extreme Omnivore}} nature and [[MoreTeethThanTheOsmondFamily sharp flesh tearing teeth]], but also the setting of the episode “Feeding Frenzy”, which is a private island off the coast of Florida Keys.

[[folder:Shadow Dragons]]
A race of creatures that resemble dragons which are in service to the Dark Dragon. The #11 greatest threat to the magical community.

* CastingAShadow: While they’re not casting any spells, their entire bodies are composed of living shadow.

* WeakenedByTheLight: [[LogicalWeakness Logically]] since they’re made of shadow: a bright flash of light destroys them. The fact that a camera can take them out makes it a {{WeaksauceWeakness}}.
