Vampire Dragon (Dragon Cave)

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

They were released on 31st October 2008. Vampire Dragons can still be obtained. They cannot breed through "normal" means. They possess a breed specific action called "Bite", which allows them to create other Vampire eggs from ordinary eggs every 31 days. Unbreedables, Drakes and dragons that can only mate within their own breeds cannot be "turned" by the Bite BSA, but all other eggs currently can.

The sprite artists are Komodo Gallant & Kuraianubus.

In-Game Description
Egg: "This egg is stone cold and smells rotten."

Hatchling: "This hatchling appears to be... dead?"

Mature Hatchling: "This hatchling appears to be... dead? Perhaps not. It seems to be active during the night.""

Adult: "Vampire dragons are members of the undead. They sustain themselves by drinking the blood of others. It is said that they are only "alive" at night, and seem dead or asleep during the day, as they cannot endure sunlight for long periods of time. Vampire dragons can only reproduce by changing the eggs of other dragons, puncturing the shell with their fangs and injecting venom that kills the baby inside."
