Dragon

Dragons are extremely powerful and intelligent creatures, which live in the Fairy Tail universe.

History
All other facts and stories about dragons were collected in one book - Dragon Historia. One of the stories listed there, tells the story of the dragon, who supposedly destroyed the entire country itself.

July-7-777
On July-7-777, all of the dragons disappeared one day and went to an unidentified uninhabited region for reasons unknown. It is possible they are waiting to defend against Zeref as a couple dragons were seen worrying about his return.

Strength and Intelligence
They are extremely powerful creatures, so powerful that a form of magic had to be created to combat them. Even Gildarts, who was considered to be the most powerful Mage in Fairy Tail under Makarov, was defeated by the Black Dragon, and he claimed that no human could defeat one.

From what Wendy told, dragons are extremely intelligent. They are able to use the language of humans. Some, however, do not seem to be satisfied with the fact of having to make contact with the race, which they consider to be lower. In such a situation at all would not go into discussion with people and show a quite remarkable ignorance pointing in their direction.

Dragons and Humans
To the events of the year X784, society does not believe in the existence of dragons. However destruction of Tenrou Island by one of them, called Acnologia, changed their view on this issue.

Despite their destructive nature, Dragons seem to care for humans to the point where they raise orphaned human children as their own. While raising the human, they teach them Dragon Slayer Magic to make the human more like them.

The situation is somewhat different in the case of the Black Dragon. In contrast to the others, did not obey the will of the Dragon King and has not left the world of humans. Gildarts described him as "the enemy of humanity", as confirmed by his subsequent behavior, when without warning and any particularly reason appeared on Tenrou Island and later try to destroyed it.
