Dragonlord from Dragon Quest (the first one) , Dragon Quest Builder (the first one), and shows up as a boss here and there in other DQ games.
SO! Story time below, then tips such as I have them, as always, it'll take me a day or two to get a decent gallery together and know the ups and downs of this lora. Lemme tell you upfront, I am not sure of it, not the least bit because civitai has been so twitchy. Firstly, this is one of those 2 forms loras, and while I occasionally get those off, its always been hit and miss, he has his main humanoid form and his dragon form, and I know people big into Maleficent and Ludmilla and such, if they got a dragon form, you gotta include it, thats how it is (though maybe its a better idea to do a separate lora)
Also, all the notes I had taken while doing this lora were lost in one of these delightful Florida lightning storm surges, so I gotta do this from memory.
But first, story time. There I was, I guess it musta been 3rd grade or so, when a friend showed me Dragon Quest and I had to rent it. Now understand, I was pretty good at this stuff, for a dippy grade schooler, but you could only get so far on a weekend rental. I didn't finish DQ 1 until I was in my 20s on a rom and we had the internet, cuz I'm sorry, there was no way you were ever figuring out some of those puzzles without either a guy or days to obsess over NPC dialogue, and while I've sunk alot of time I'm not proud of into alot of things, I just didn't have that kinda time. But DQ was iconic and (puzzles aside), remains an extremely fun series, aside from the main games, all the spinoffs.
So there I was again, trying to finish out Dragon Quest Builders (the 1st one). I picked it up in the day for $10 I think (or maybe it was $20), the 2nd one is even better in my opinion because you've got more area to build and better mechanics, and hey, there's Dragon Lord! (Oh, also I had him in Brave Exvius during the DQ crossover, he was real fun for about a week, but Brave Exvius was always making the new guy obsolete within days, so you had to enjoy it on that level).
Anyways, I sometimes see Dragon Quest loras show up here, I went looking, and it seems like they've got every monster and villain you can think of but...no Dragon Lord! Me being me I had to resolve that! And then I went to put the lora together and I kinda realized why. There really isn't much art out of him, I mean official like. Its all very similar, him in maybe 4 poses, its all mostly the same perspective, and he always wears the same clothes.
Look, I don't know you, and I don't have to know. I'm telling you, you could draw him from a reference. He's like Garfield that way.
So I expect challenges with this lora, but I've been wrong before.
Ok, well having lost my notes, what's he look like?
Humanoid: Male, a black swept hat (think Maleficent), evil yellow eyes (or sclera), blue colored skin, noseless, a purple robe, a cape with a red collar, a dragon staff, a red amulet (necklace), and he's usually depicted as chibi.
Dragon form: A purple dragon, red eyes, wings, claws, horns, sharp teeth
I tried to tag it, so if you're going for the Dragon form, you can use those and maybe "2nd form".
I used 24 samples, art, game screenshots, and 5 AI extrapolations to round things out. I'd suspect its going to fight you hard on his outfit, so my recommend if you're struggling with that is either use a clothing lora or reduce the Dragonlord lora strength. Keyword is Dr@g0nl0rd
