elder dragon
Venerable scaled titan
Elder dragon refers to a category of supremely powerful, ancient dragons in fantasy games and media—particularly the Monster Hunter series, where elder dragons are ecological anomalies capable of causing natural disasters.
The term suggests creatures so old and mighty they transcend normal dragon classifications: We need a full party to take down an elder dragon.
In Magic: The Gathering, elder dragons are a specific creature type representing the oldest and most powerful of dragonkind.
