A dragon, represented by D, is a very powerful end-game monster in NetHack and coveted for the scales they sometimes drop.
Baby dragons exist in the NetHack dungeon, and are hatched from eggs.
Each dragon has a specific resistance associated with it. Eating some dragon corpses can give you the associated intrinsics; others can give you the extrinsic ability by enchanting their scales to make dragon scale mail. (Note that dragon corpses are very filling so using a tinning kit is often a good idea.)
Dragon Resistances
- Blue: shock resistance (can be intrinsic by eating the corpse)
- Black: disintegration resistance (can be intrinsic by eating the corpse)
- Gray: magic resistance
- Green: poison resistance (can be intrinsic by eating the corpse)
- Orange: sleep resistance (can be intrinsic by eating the corpse)
- Red: fire resistance (can be intrinsic by eating the corpse)
- Silver: reflection
- White: cold resistance (can be intrinsic by eating the corpse)
- Yellow: acid resistance
The Chromatic Dragon, the Caveman quest nemesis, is a special sort of dragon. Eating its corpse conveys a random resistance.
