** ''100 Years Quest'' also reveals that Dragon Lacrima, the PowerCrystal containing Dragon Slayer Magic, are in fact "processed" ''[[GemTissue Dragon hearts]]''.

* BizarreAlienBiology: [[spoiler:As Elefseria reveals in ''100 Years Quest'', dragons seem to possess an odd biological HealingFactor, as when his dragonification completed, his torn-out human heart from his battle with Dogramag was replaced by a newly-grown ''different'' organ rather than a new heart in general. And his original heart [[BeatStillMyHeart is still intact and beating on its own]] a century after the fact.]]

* GreaterScopeParagon: For the majority of the series, Igneel was simply Natsu's father figure and major motivation for adventuring in Fairy Tail, the values he instilled in Natsu forming the basis upon which the guild built up. As more information was revealed, he quickly started becoming [[GreaterScopeVillain Acnologia's counterpart]], especially with the revelation that he was TheLeader of the Dragon Slayer's Dragon parents, the one who planned their strategy to both protect their adoptive children and face the Dragon King, and by far the strongest creature on their side of the conflict. However, it would not be until the Tartaros arc that Igneel would finally be forced to make his reappearance, and indeed have most of the information on what he was doing behind the scenes revealed post-death.

* BrokeYourArmPunchingOutCthulhu: Igneel manages to tear off Acnologia's armin a SingleStrokeBattle. His opponent in turn took away most of Igneel's torso before vaporizing him.

* BadassBeard: Weisslogia was bearded and apparently quite aged.

* StuffedInTheFridge: Natsu gets a front-row seat to Igneel's [[FamilyUnfriendlyDeath horrific death]] at the hands of Acnologia, which fuels his motivation to slay the Dragon King.

* DefiantToTheEnd: He bites of Acnologia's left arm before getting killed.
* DoNotGoGentle: Igneel manages to tear off Acnologia's arm while lunging in for an all to certain suicide attack.

* FriendToAllLivingThings: Wendy notes that she is extremely kind to humans. It's an indicator that the human-hating Porlyusica, despite having Grandeeney's voice and scent, is not the Grandeeney she knows.

* GoOutWithASmile: Despite the [[FamilyUnfriendlyDeath horrific extent of his injuries]], he manages to shoot Natsu one last smile before Acnologia's BreathWeapon leaves him a smouldering dragon corpse.

* MoreThanMindControl: Though Future Rogue uses his Dragon Supremacy magic to get the dragons to do his bidding, a number of them outright state that they love terrorizing humans and wrecking everything that they honestly don't care they're being controlled. Indeed, when Natsu reveals his relation to Igneel, Atlas Flame is able to shrug off said control and fight against Future Rogue and the other dragons rather easily for no other reason than he considers Natsu his friend for their mutual acquaintance.

* GreaterScopeParagon: Each of them has little impact on the main plot other than the fact that their disappearance kickstarted the main characters' journeys, eventually leading them to Fairy Tail. However, they continue to keep a close watch over their children while sealed inside them, protecting them from a curse that would turn them into dragons like Acnologia.

* DeusExMachina: TheDragonsComeBack in the Tartaros arc just at the right time to stop Face.

* WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway: Compared to the other dragons, all Zirconis's BreathWeapon does is non-lethally [[TheNudifier vaporize human clothing]] and invoke DefeatByModesty. Unlike most examples, however, he still poses a serious threat without such abilities because ''just being a dragon'' is one hell of an advantage in and of itself.

A Wise Dragon who served as Irene's adviser and friend 400 years ago. After he died in the Dragon King Festival, Irene adopted his name as her own in his memory.

* MagicEnhancement: The default ability of a Wise Dragon is to increase their strength and magic exponentially.

* NighInvulnerability: Aside from Dragon Slayer magic and other dragons, they are capable of shrugging off nearly any attack done them without any effort. Even a minor one like Atlas Flame can laugh off Makarov, a Wizard Saint.
* NoSell: Magic of virtually every sort has no effect on them. Even attacks dealt by Wizard Saints Makarov and Jura, who are themselves established badasses among humans, are about as effective as mosquitoes against a jet plane. The only ones who stand any chance against them are [[MeaningfulName Dragon Slayers]], and even then, their magic is barely developed enough to pose anything more than a mild annoyance.

* WhatKindOfLamePowerIsHeartAnyway: Compared to the other dragons, all Zirconis's BreathWeapon does is non-lethally [[TheNudifier vaporize human clothing]] and invoke DefeatByModesty. Unlike most examples, however, he still poses a serious threat without his powers.

A fire dragon whose entire body is covered in flames, and is an old friend of Igneel's. He is also the founder of the Village of the Sun, a village of giants where his spirit serves as its guardian deity, the Eternal Flame.

A dragon with indestructible adamantine scales and the ability to birth hundreds of deadly dragon young at once.

* MookMaker: S/he can somehow give birth to hundreds of eggs at a time, which immediately hatch into

* {{Hellfire}}: He describes the flames covering his body as such. Natsu ends up getting a massive PowerUp by consuming them.

* NighInvulnerable: He's capable of burning any magic that touches him, and was even able to shrug off a glancing shot from Motherglare's mountain-destroying Dragon's Roar without issue. That changes when Silver, the [[AnIcePerson Ice]] [[DemonSlaying Demon Slayer]], freezes him solid along with the rest of Sun Village.

* NighInvulnerable: He's capable of burning any magic that touches him. That changes when Silver, the [[AnIcePerson Ice]] [[DemonSlaying Demon Slayer]], freezes him solid along with the rest of Sun Village.

* NighInvulnerability: His/her scales are made of adamantium and impervious to other dragons' attacks. It's worth noting that these scales are so hard, they demolish the Eclipse Gate when Motherglare falls on it.

* GoodParents: From all accounts, Grandeeney raised Wendy like her own daughter. In "100 Years Quest", Ignia reveals that female dragons as a rule are the ones to raise dragon children after breeding season while males go off on their own, which would explain retroactively why Grandeeney and Wendy's relationship seems to have been the best of all the Slayers and Dragon parents save Natsu and Igneel.

* TheSmurfettePrinciple: She is the only female among the Dragon Slayers' guardians, and one of the few female dragons seen in the entire series.
