Kill

Eggs, hatchlings, and adult dragons can all be killed. To attempt to kill a dragon, select the "Kill" option on its action page. A player can only kill five dragons before he or she must wait a long time (about two weeks).

Killing an Egg

A killed egg appears as the jagged bottom half of an egg. Dead eggs remain on the scroll on which they died for two weeks. Killed eggs count as alive eggs (and thus are capable of locking a scroll) for 24 hours, so typically it is preferable to abandon an egg rather than killing it. Sometimes you can use a magic spell to revive the egg. On rare occasions, reviving an egg will create a Zombie Dragon. Players with Zombie Dragons can kill fewer dragons, as the kill used to create the Zombie is never restored.

Killing a Hatchling

Once a dragon becomes a hatchling, it becomes harder to kill as it will occasionally evade the blade. If this happens, a player cannot attempt to kill the hatchling again for another twenty-four hours. Dead hatchlings appear as tombstones and count as alive hatchlings for 24 hours.

Killing an Adult Dragon

Adult dragons can be very difficult to kill. Because of this, most players who no longer wish to have a certain adult on their scroll release that dragon to the wilderness instead of trying to kill it. Additionally, like all other stages of growth, the tombstone resulting from a dragon's death remains on the scroll for two weeks.

Eggs and hatchlings that recently died or were killed can be found in the graveyard.
