Faerie Dragons are level 7 neutral creatures, that can only be recruited from the Magic Forest found on the Adventure Map.

"Faerie Dragons are deceptively cute, but in truth, are mischievous tricksters. Little is known about these notorious troublemakers. What is known is found more in storybooks than magical tomes. Some say they are invisible. Some say they can cast spells. Some say Magic Mirror is one of their natural defensive traits." ^{AB manual}

Special ability

Faerie Dragons' main attack method is to cast offensive spells. A stack of faerie dragons can cast up to five spells per combat. The spells are randomly chosen for the stack, and the occurrence probabilities can be seen from the table on the left. The spells are cast with advanced expertise, and with spell power equal to five times the number of faerie dragons in the stack (N). If commanded to attack an enemy that is immune to the spell they are currently preparing, they will use a melee attack instead. However, the melee damage of this dragon is comparable to that of a level 6 creature, so don't expect them to do much damage.

Faerie Dragon's Spells:

Spell	Lvl	%	School	Damage
Template:Sn1	1	10%	all	20+50*N
Template:Sn1	2	22%	Water	20+100*N
Template:Sn1	2	22%	Air	20+125*N
Template:Sn1	3	21%	Fire	30+50*N
Template:Sn1	3	10%	Water	30+50*N
Template:Sn1	4	5%	Fire	40+50*N
Template:Sn1	4	5%	Earth	50+125*N
Template:Sn1	4	5%	Air	50+200*N

Magic Arrow, Ice Bolt and Lightning Bolt are not affected by damage bonuses from the hero's Sorcery secondary skill or elemental orbs equipped.

While fighting on Cursed ground, Faerie Dragons can cast all the spells, but they cause no damage. The only effective spell is Magic Arrow.

Faerie Dragons have a 20% chance to reflect targeted spells with Magic Mirror. Faerie Dragons ignore the Orb of Inhibition in some stances of combat i.e. they cast offensive spells despite the presence of the orb.

Appearance

Faerie Dragons were added in Armageddon's Blade so there are no Faerie Dragons or Magic Forests in Restoration of Erathia. They also prominently appear in the Faerie Dragons scenario from the Dragon Slayer campaign in Armageddon's Blade.

Others

Placing Faerie Dragons (as well as any living Dragons) in the Skeleton Transformer will give you Bone Dragons instead of regular Skeletons.
