Dragon (Final Fantasy VII enemy)

Dragon is an enemy from Final Fantasy VII. It is the strongest random enemy on Mt. Nibel, and could be considered something of a miniboss with its powerful attacks and high HP. Interestingly, they are not immune to poisoning, which can be useful considering their high HP. A Gold Armlet can be stolen from it, and it has a 75% chance of using its Flamethrower ability, which can be learned as an Enemy Skill. The Dragon gives a high amount of gil, EXP, and AP when beaten.

A Dragon also attacks Cloud and Sephiroth in Cloud's flashback, but Sephiroth will automatically kill it in two strokes. It is also implied that this Dragon was the result of the Mako Reactor in Nibelheim malfunctioning, given the fact that one of Sephiroth and "Cloud's" missions involved killing a monster that was spawned as a result of the malfunction and immediately before the battle, when the driver reports that something crashed into the truck, Sephiroth deduces that they found their monster.
