'''Minotaurs and Minotaur Kings''' are level 5 creatures of [[Dungeon town]]. They are recruited from the [[Labyrinth]].


''"Minotaurs and Minotaur Kings live in labyrinths and devour all who enter. These bull-like humanoids are sure of their ability to dominate in battle and have good [[morale]]. This self image is well-founded as they are durable and have a very damaging axe attack."{{-}}<sup>[[Restoration of Erathia Manual Page 90|RoE manual]]''</sup>

== Tactics and info ==
== Tactics and info ==
They are one of the main forces of the Dungeon, aside from the [[Red Dragon and Black Dragon|Red and Black Dragons]], mainly because of their specialty, high stats, and especially because of their damage that is comparable to a level 6's.
Dracon's special ability is formidable. Even so powerful that he is typically disabled in custom made maps. While you should have no reasonable difficulty using Dracon as a main hero during the single player campaign, he could also be used as an [[enchanter]]-upgrading-support-hero sitting in a town garrison or following your main hero.


== Special ability ==
== Campaigns ==
Minotaur's positive morale ability can be affected only with [[Cursed Ground]] magical terrain or [[Spirit of Opression]] artifact. Their [[morale]] cannot be decreased below +1 by the [[Sorrow]] spell, [[Holy Ground]] magical terrain effect, the morale forfeit for units from different towns or [[undead]] in the army, [[Bone and Ghost Dragon]] ability, any morale decreasing map objects effects and anti-morale artifacts in {{hota}}.
He is featured in the [[Dragon Slayer]] campaign from {{ab}}, taking appearance in all four scenarios as the main hero.


== Heroes with a specialty ==
== Trivia ==
In the [[Dragon Slayer]] campaign, he managed to slay all kinds of dragons, from [[Faerie Dragon|Faerie Dragons]] to [[Azure Dragon|Azure Dragons]], accomplishing only what veteran [[Dragon|Dragon Slayers]] could.


*{{H|Dace|Overlord}} has minotaurs as a [[Specialty#Creature_specialties|specialty]], which increases the attack and defense skills of any minotaurs or minotaur kings for each level attained after 5th  level and gives them a [[speed]] bonus of 1.
According to Jennifer Bullard's development documents, Dracon is the one who finally slayed [[Mutare Drake|Mutare the Dragon Queen]] in one-on-one combat. He didn't survive the battle, but still freed the [[dragons]] from [[Mutare|Mutare's]] influence and was also gonna be remembered as the greatest [[Dragons|Dragon Slayer]] of all time.
 
== Trivia ==
In one of the {{ab}} teasers, the Minotaur was shown together with an electricity-shooting [[Ogre]] and ranged [[Goblins]]. The cause for this was because the teaser was supposed to include the [[Forge]] version of these creatures, the Minotaur bearing a jetpack on his back and the [[Ogre]] a rocket launcher or bazooka. However, due to fan backlash, they had to change the [[Forge]] creatures into "regular" creatures, and so the teaser became somewhat off-topic with ranged [[Goblins]], a [[Minotaur]] and an [[Ogre]] guarding the [[Varn 1904 Vault]] where the [[Armageddon's Blade (Artifact)|Armageddon's Blade]] was kept.
