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.

Some may find the information in this section subjective or irrelevant.

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.

Campaigns

He is featured in the Dragon Slayer campaign from Armageddon's Blade, taking appearance in all four scenarios as the main hero.

Trivia

In the Dragon Slayer campaign, he managed to slay all kinds of dragons, from Faerie Dragons to Azure Dragons, accomplishing only what veteran Dragon Slayers could.

According to Jennifer Bullard's development documents, Dracon is the one who finally slayed Mutare the Dragon Queen in one-on-one combat. He didn't survive the battle, but still freed the dragons from Mutare's influence and was also going to be remembered as the greatest Dragon Slayer of all time.

In Russian, Dracon and Drakon have the same name spelling (Дракон), since letters C and K are transliterated in the same way (e.g. Korbac is "Корбак" in Russian).
