Talk:Alpha Dragon/@comment-27624304-20180603152021

What exactly is the concensus on what an "Alpha Dragon" actually is? It seems to be a vaguely defined term.

Seems to me there are varying levels of "alpha". For instance, the Alpha in a group or pack of dragons (like a wolf pack) such as the Fireworm Queen or the Lead Speed Stinger, or even the Nadder leader of the abused dragons (is that Scardian?). Then there seems to be alphas that are leaders and/or controllers of a regional group of dragons, like the Red Death, Foreverwing, and the Bewilderbeasts. These may control the alphas of small packs. Finally there seems to be THE alpha, the leader of all dragons around the world (in real world biology, this is the category that would make the least sense and not really exist, but seems to in the Franchise).
