|first_appearance=''{{iw|dragonquest|Dragon Quest}}'' ([[List of games by date#1986|1986]], ''Dragon Quest'' series)<br>''[[Itadaki Street DS]]'' ([[List of games by date#2007|2007]], ''Super Mario''-related media)

'''Dragonlord''', sometimes referred to as '''Dracolord''', is the main villain of ''{{iw|dragonquest|Dragon Quest}}'' and the first major villain in the ''{{iw|dragonquest|Dragon Quest (series)|Dragon Quest}}'' series. He is a powerful sorcerer who can transform into a dragon and once conquered the kingdom of {{iw|dragonquest|Alefgard}}. He makes his first appearance in the ''Super Mario'' franchise as one of the playable characters in ''[[Itadaki Street DS]]''.  

In ''Dragon Quest'', Dragonlord was the ruler of {{iw|dragonquest|Charlock Castle}} and prior to the game he had stolen the {{iw|dragonquest|Sphere of Light}} to allow his evil monster army to invade the kingdom of Alefgard. He then kidnapped {{iw|dragonquest|Princess Gwaelin}} to prevent the {{iw|dragonquest|King Lorik|king}} from organizing a resistance, leading to the nameless {{iw|dragonquest|Hero (Dragon Quest)|Hero}} of the game to beginning his adventure to rid the land of his tyranny and save the princess. Despite his appearance of a physically weak humanoid sorcerer, it was revealed that he was in truth a large and powerful Dragon.

He also appeared as a monster in ''{{iw|dragonquest|Dragon Quest Monsters (series)|Dragon Quest Monster}}'' series and as a playable character in ''Itadaki Street Special''.

The Dragonlord appeared in ''[[Captain N: The Game Master]]'' where he was portrayed as a dragon at all times. He was often featured as a villain in the series and appeared to be king of all dragons. Unlike in the games, his dragon form is red instead of purple.  Along with some [[Slime (Dragon Quest)|Slime]]s and an AxeKnight (later localized in the US as {{iw|dragonquest|Knight aberrant|Knight Aberrant}}), the Dragonlord is the only character from the game to appear in ''Captain N''.

|EngA=The kingpin of monsterkind who wants the world plunged into darkness. True to his dastardly disposition, he's also a ruthless businessman.

*While Dragonlord does not appear in ''[[Super Smash Bros. Ultimate]]'', the final round of [[Hero]]'s Classic Mode route is a reference to him, involving Hero fighting a blue [[Robin]] (referencing Dragonlord's humanoid form) followed by a giant purple [[Charizard]] (referencing Dragonlord's draconic form). Further, the battle takes place in [[Dracula's Castle]], which bears a passing resemblance to {{iw|dragonquest|Dragonlord's Castle}}.
