Welcome to Dragon Cave! Dragon Cave is an online adoptables game. Collect eggs, raise them to adulthood, and then breed them to create interesting lineages. New dragons are added regularly!
Horse Dragons have equine-shaped bodies and hooves instead of claws, which allow them to be fast runners. They specialize in running takeoffs, which are quicker than taking off from a stand-still. Horse dragons are able to stalk their prey from the ground then quickly execute an aerial attack for the kill.
Dragons are highly-intelligent reptilian creatures that—from a human perspective, at least—appear to live forever. Many different varieties of dragon exist, each with their own unique qualities, habitats, and behavior. Adolescence in dragons is usually marked by the growth of a hatchling’s wings, although not all breeds of dragons grow wings and some breeds have other traits that indicate the beginning of maturation. In Galsreim, dragons and humans coexist peacefully.
Niestre is actually dead, a hollow body inhabited by nightmare spiders. The spiders are known to infect normal horses, but can target any horse-like creature, including pegasi, unicorns, and horse-dragons. The colonies are always controlled by the spiders' queen. Niestre is always on the move, sometimes raiding farms and releasing young queens to make new nests, but usually is hunting for more magical horse-like victims.
Niestre will not allow himself to be harnessed or controlled except by Skrape, to whom he will willingly bind himself. It is thought that the daydream uses his natural magic to hypnotize the spiders, though others' attempts at the same trick all fail. Niestre wanders the world seemingly at random.
