Category:Christmas Dragons

Every year, a new Christmas dragon will be released for a brief time surrounding this holiday, and old Christmas dragons are able to produce offspring of their same breed. Christmas Dragons will lay multiple eggs, causing the Abandoned Page (AP) to have many previous-release holiday eggs in it.


 * The red, gold, and green "Holly" dragon released in 2007.
 * The red and white "Yulebuck" dragon in 2008.
 * The gold and white "Snow Angel" dragon in 2009.
 * The gold, green, and red "Ribbon Dancer" dragon in 2010.
 * The gold, green, red, and silver "Winter Magi" dragon in 2011.
 * The red, green, and white "Wrapping-Wing" dragon in 2012.
 * The blue, gold, pink, and white "Solstice Dragon" in 2013.
 * The spring green, green-tinted blue and white "Mistletoe Dragon" in 2014.

Christmas dragons are limited to 2 Cave-born (CB) eggs per scroll. You can keep one egg of your previous Christmas dragon breedings, and take as many old holiday dragons you want. If you exceed the 2-CB-per-scroll limit on catching the new-release dragon however, those extra eggs would be auto-abandoned.

TJ09 has also stated outright that no breed of Christmas dragon will be re-released; if you missed a previous year's holiday dragon, the only way to obtain one is if someone who already has one breeds it for you. That is only possible at Christmas time; for the rest of the year, holiday dragons only produce the same breed as the other parent. Since the "rare x rare breeding" got implemented, Christmas dragons are able to reproduce with each other the week surrounding Christmas day. During the course of the year, they can breed with standard dragons. These breedings result only in their partner's breed of eggs, but in the time period surrounding Christmas they can result in eggs of the breed of the Christmas dragon parent.

None of them have a Breed Specific Action. Ribbon Dancers, Snow Angels, Solstices and Mistletoes are female-only dragons, while Yulebucks, Winter Magis, and Wrapping-Wings are male-only. When first released, Holly Dragons were also male-only. In 2008, however, the Holly dragons were able to breed more of their kind during Christmas, and the resulting offspring were able to become either female or male. To this day, Holly dragons are the only Christmas dragon breed with individuals of both genders.

Hatchling
"Aww... It's a cute baby dragon. It's very festively colored."

Mature Hatchling
"Aww... It's a cute baby dragon. It's very festively colored. And look! It's grown its wings! It must be close to maturing."

Adult
"Holiday dragons are a very mysterious breed. They are only seen during winter, and even then it is hard to catch a glimpse of one. They are responsible for the general cheer that spreads during the holidays. In essence, they are the “Spirits of Winter.”"

The adult description was noticed as changed on April 6, 2015. The original description is below. The change was to stay consistent with the fact that Christmas was never specifically mentioned elsewhere on site - Christmas time has always been referred to as just "Holiday" on the site and forum.

"Christmas dragons are a very mysterious breed. They are only seen during winter, and even then it is hard to catch a glimpse of one. They are responsible for the general cheer that spreads during the holidays. In essence, they are the 'Spirits of Christmas.'"
