* DragonsPreferPrincesses: As the title indicates. When you win enough battles within specific regions (the Forest Kingdom, the Trade Empire, and the Dark Realm), you get to take their princess for yourself, who get their own room within your dragon lair. Oddly enough, their portraits are lacking in any signs of distress, as if they may even enjoy staying under the dragon's captivity (given the dragon-themed furniture in their rooms), and they can even aid you in battles against what are presumably their ''own'' people. [[AmbiguousSituation It's not exactly clear]] whether this would qualify as StockholmSyndrome, however, though the ending shows the princesses hanging out with your dragon in a friendly manner.

* VillainProtagonist: As the dragon, you raid the other civilizations and settlements without any provocation from them, and kidnap their princesses, so you are certainly this at worst.

''Gragyriss, Captor of Princesses'' is a short [[LifeSimulationGame life simulation]] [[WebGames web browser game]] by Snow Road Games, in which you play as a [[OurDragonsAreDifferent red dragon]]. You start as an egg, and after hatching it, you feed it grass, sheep, and wolves to raise it and strengthen it so it can raid settlements and capture princesses.

The game can be played on [[https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/724947 Newgrounds]], [[https://armorgames.com/gragyriss-captor-of-princesses-game/18549 Armor Games]], or [[https://www.kongregate.com/games/snowroadgames/gragyriss-captor-of-princesses Kongregate]].

!! Tropes present in ''Gragyriss, Captor of Princesses'' include:

* AntiHoarding: Francesca's appropriately named "Hoarder" perk is an [[InvertedTrope inversion]] where you get stronger if you hoard enough gold.
* ArrangeMode: The game has a separate mode with endless waves of attackers, for which you have to grow and fend off for as long as you can before your enemies overwhelm you. There's also a princess exclusive to this mode.
* AWinnerIsYou: After beating the final boss, the game ends with a screen of the dragon resting with the princesses it has captured, rather peacefully.
* BigEater: Your dragon will eat a ''lot'' of plants, sheep, and wolves to get bigger and stronger. [[JustifiedTrope Justified]] since eating sheep restores health, eating plants increases max HP, and eating wolves increases their attack stat.
* BreathWeapon: You can [[PlayingWithFire breath fire]] upon your enemies to deal a good burst of damage, with a cooldown.
* DragonHoard: As you raid settlements and defeat enemies, your hoard of riches will fill up.
* DragonsPreferPrincesses: As the title indicates. When you win enough battles within specific regions (the Forest Kingdom, the Trade Empire, and the Dark Realm), you get to take their princess for yourself, who get their own room within your dragon lair. Oddly enough, their portraits are lacking in any signs of distress, as if they may even enjoy staying under the dragon's captivity (given the dragon-themed furniture in their rooms), and they can even aid you in battles against what are presumably their ''own'' people. [[AmbiguousSituation It's not exactly clear]] whether this would qualify as StockholmSyndrome, however, though the ending shows the princesses hanging out with your dragon in a friendly manner.
* DragonsVersusKnights: You fight plenty of knights in your attacks on other regions, including one as the FinalBoss.
* GameplayAutomation: Eventually, with enough upgrades, sheep, fruit, and wolves will eventually be upgraded to a point where they will be fed to the dragon automatically, which leads to continuous stat growth, enabling you to eventually overwhelm any enemy by stats alone given you wait long enough.
* GiganticAdultsTinyBabies: As expected for your dragon, who becomes much bigger in their final adult stage compared to their hatchling stage.
* HeroicFantasy: The setting features knights, undead skeletons, demons, mages, treants, and plenty of magic, as well as a Western dragon. However, you take the role of the mentioned dragon.
* HyperactiveMetabolism: Eating sheep lets you restore health instantly.
* LongRangeFighter: The archer enemies and the Dark Realm mage boss, which require usage of your [[BreathWeapon fire breath]] to damage.
* OurElvesAreDifferent: Elvine, the green-skinned princess of the Forest Kingdom that you capture.
* OurGeniesAreDifferent: Jennie, the endless-wave mode exclusive princess whose skills revolve around the mode's battles more than the others, with Etherwinds damaging all enemies (and yourself, averting FriendlyFireproof) and Time Spiral which uses the seconds hasted toward the next wave to delay the subsequent wave.
* PrettyPrincessPowerhouse: Elvine and Amber, who have active skills that can do well in battles with enemies attacking your dragon. Elvine's [[GreenThumb Razor Leaves]] skill can pelter all enemies with leaves, and Amber's [[SupernaturalFearInducer Terror]] skill can scare away all regular enemies, though Amber leans towards HotAsHell in terms of looks, complete with {{Underboobs}}.
* ProtagonistTitle: Gragyriss is the dragon, who is also the [[TheXOfY captor of princesses]] in this game.
* PunchedAcrossTheRoom: A funny form of GameplayAutomation where your pile of sheep can be eventually protected by a goat that can launch predatory wolves into the air, right into Gragyriss' mouth to become food.
* RaisingSim: Your dragon starts as an egg, and goes through a hatchling stage, a juvenile stage, and finally an adult stage, gaining more stats in the process.
* SavageWolves: Wolves continually hunt sheep and reproduce, and your dragon can eat these to [[RareCandy gain more strength.]]
* SmashedEggsHatching: The dragon egg you start with requires dropping several sheep onto it to crack it and let the dragon hatch.
* VillainProtagonist: As the dragon, you raid the other civilizations and settlements without any provocation from them, and kidnap their princesses, so you are certainly this at worst.
* WhenTreesAttack: The Forest Kingdom has a giant treant as a champion you have to defeat to capture the kindgom's princess, capable of automatically RegeneratingHealth.
