Dragon Adopters



Dragon Adopters is an adoptable Web site about adopting dragons, although there is a Dino subspecies available. Sometimes considered the rival to Dragon Cave. (Which site is better is certainly arguable.)

You start out by adopting an egg, most of which are dragon eggs (the only exception is the Dino). You then raise it by letting people visit your dragon and age, sounds like traditional adoptable fare. You can adopt up to seven dragons, or release dragons to free up a slot. The current dragon breeds are Western Dragon, Eastern Dragon, FurDragon, Wyvern, Lizardus, Dino (not really a dragon), Petro Dragon, FelidDragon, Dark Dragon and the newest addition,Plesio Dragon.

Each dragon is of a certain element and produces 'aura' of that element: blue aura for water, red for fire, etc. They also produce 'Dragon Scales', 'Dragon Fur' or 'Reptile Scales'. These resources can be used to buy items, and even bonus elements and a certain item.

All the site's artwork is done by the Admin Thaz. The site also has an art gallery where users can put up sprite edits, or full-out fanart on the website.

New Dragon breeds are released every few months.

This site provides examples of: 
 * Breath Weapon:Western dragons, Feli Dragons and Dark dragons are known to breathe fire.
 * Bribing Your Way to Victory: The Web site used to have the donation-only item 'Dragon Coins', which sold for US$8 for 10 coins. Subverted, though, they since have been removed for unknown reasons and can be bought with large amounts of resources instead.
 * Dragon Coins can be used to buy an extra slot, or a special item for Dark Dragons.
 * Color-Coded Wizardry: Somewhat; each dragon is usually a color that goes with its element.
 * Dark Is Not Evil: The Dark Dragons are good examples of this.
 * Dinosaurs Are Dragons: The Dinos/Raptors.
 * Elemental Powers
 * Everything's Better with Dinosaurs
 * Exactly What It Says on the Tin: ...Yeah.
 * The Merch: The Web site has T-shirts and such, all go profit towards the site.
 * Our Dragons Are Different: Indeed. Never seen a 'FelidDragon' before.
 * Unlockable Content: There are a few things that qualify as this.
