Physical Appearance[]
Egg[]
The eggs of Golden Dragons are oval with a smooth and shiny exterior. They are also made of solid gold, which was verified by undisclosed laboratory testing by Hiccup and Heather in School of Dragons.
Hatchling to Adult[]
Baby Golden Dragons have the same color as the adult, but with much shorter horns.
Golden Dragons are quite large in size with dark brown and golden scales, and spiraling antelope-like horns. They are quadrupedal and have a short, bumpy tail, with a small fin on it. The scales of Golden Dragons are very reminiscent of bird feathers, especially those on the chest of the dragon. Their wings are quite small compared to their body size.
Abilities[]
Golden Glitter Blasts[]
Golden Dragons can fire streams of golden glitter after feeding on their egg shells upon hatching. The glitter is difficult to wash off once it sticks and can be an irritant when it gets into the eyes of living creatures.
Climbing[]
Golden Dragons can use their strong claws to climb vertical stone walls and stay attached to the ceiling of a cave.
Behavior and Personality[]
Golden Dragons are very protective of their nests and believe that they can take on anything by themselves. But after realizing their overconfidence, they are willing to allow others to help.
In School of Dragons, Golden Dragons are shown to be protective of their eggs. They are a friendly species, which could make them vulnerable to Dragon Hunters, but they do not show themselves until they know it is safe for their offspring. Hiccup postulates that the Golden Dragon is a migratory species, that lays eggs during Snoggletog season (Wintertime) while in the Barbaric Archipelago. So far nests have been found on Armorwing Island, and now New Berk.
Weaknesses[]
Extreme Rarity[]
Golden Dragons lay eggs only once every 100 years, making the species vulnerable to extinction. Not only this, they are also vulnerable to hunters who seek their eggs for their gold, as Golden Dragons don't have many defensive abilities.
Appearances[]
Dragons: Rescue Riders: Hunt for the Golden Dragon[]
Main article: Gemma |
Main article: Gemma's Offspring |
The Rescue Riders set out to find a Golden Dragon and its egg before Waldondo del Mundo, Erik the Wretched, and Svetlana the Sly, so that they could protect them. They found Gemma and her egg inside a cave on an unnamed island. She claimed to not need any help, but after seeing the other dragons' abilities, she accepted. The Rescue Riders create a diversion so that the pirates would stop chasing the Golden Dragon and return just in time to see the egg hatch. The baby immediately started eating the eggshell in order to gain the glitter ability.
Games[]
School of Dragons[]
The Golden Dragon was introduced in this game in December 2021.
Trivia[]
- The Golden Dragon's trait of laying an egg once every 100 years is similar to that of a Screaming Death.
- This would imply that Golden Dragons live for over 100 years.
