Adult



The adult is the fourth and currently final stage of a dragon's life cycle, although a fifth stage, called Ascendance, is being discussed on the forums. It is unknown if ascendance will be implemented into Dragon Cave. Adult dragons will never die of old age, this is due to the fact in mythology that dragons have nearly unlimited lifespans.

If the player has an adult dragon with a different gender than the other on his/her scroll, he/she can make the dragons breed to produce a new egg. This new egg will have two new spaces that say "View Lineage" and "Children". When you click "View Lineage" it links you to where you can view all the past dragons that have bred all the way down to the egg recently created. When you look below "Children", you can see all the times the dragon has succesfully bred and made an egg. Their children can also be viewed in the "View Lineage" link.

Adult dragons are the only dragons that can have descriptions added to them with the Describe tool.

Some dragons can have different sprites depending on their gender. Others will use the same sprite for both genders.
