Dorsal Dragon (Dragon Cave)

The Dorsal Dragon is a type of dragon from the web browser game Dragon Cave.

They were released on the 22nd April 2009. Dorsal dragons have two different colours, red and purple. Purple Dorsals are fairly common and are often on the abandoned page. Reds are rare, but eggs are available from the cave. Breeding either colour of dorsal can produce red or purple dorsal eggs. One easily can see what color a Dorsal dragon will be when looking at the color of the egg.

In-Game Description
Egg: "This egg has multiple bands of color on it."

Hatchling: "Aww... It's a cute baby dragon. It has brightly colored fins on its back."

Mature Hatchling: "Aww... It's a cute baby dragon. It has brightly colored fins on its back. And look! It's grown its wings! It must be close to maturing."

Adult: "Dorsal dragons are so named because they have large fins along their backs that can be raised and lowered at will. They use these fins to regulate body temperature; They raise them to cool off when they become overheated. The bright colors on the fins double as a means of attracting mates."
