Do Battle With The Escapist Dragon Quiz!

Here's your chance to show off what you know about those most majestic of mythical beasts - dragons.

Just about every civilization on the planet has some legend or mythology about dragons. Sometimes they're pictured as enormous serpents, other times they have huge wings and claws. They've been depicting breathing everything from fire to lightning to acid, but one thing remains constant: They could rip your face off without even trying, which is what makes them such wonderful adversaries. Well, that and all the loot they tend to collect.

Today's quiz, which was inspired by our current obsession with Dragon Quest IX, is all about dragons, though not all of the questions deal with the beasts directly. As always, you can take as long as you like to finish the quiz, and retake it as often as you need to in order to get your 100%, but your cumulative time will affect your position on the leaderboards.

Ready? Here we go!

[IamQ]

40% by just guessing. Not too shabby.

 

[Jared]

60%...not a bad score.

Also, I have that same obsession. Great game!

 

[Onyx Oblivion]

60%

I'd love a Dragon Quest badge...

I'm still shocked that I don't need a priest yet in DQ9.

Mistrel, Mage, Martial Artist, Warrior is working great for now. FOR NOW.

 

[Evilsanta]

60% not to bad i guess.

 

[Kajt]

50%! I only knew 2 questions for sure!

 

[Vortigar]

70% first go.

Don't know much about Dragons beyond the DnD ones.
Luckily a number of questions are connected to dragons in name only.

I expected a question like:

Which dragon appears both in the Forgotten Realms and every Final Fantasy game to date?
1) Tiamat
2) Bahamut
3) Hiryuu
4) Shinryu

(Don't know if it's every one but I think it is.)

 

[ShadowKatt]

Well, I failed it miserably. 3 of 10 right.

I thought it would be about dragons, not video games. I think I forgot for a moment where I was...still not awake yet...

 

[AwesomeFerret]

40% by just guessing. Not too shabby.

Same here, it seems like some of the questions weren't exactly dragon knowledge to be honest.

 

[SeanTheSheep]

Note to self, don't go to the toilet half way through a quiz.
That said, it was a fairly easy quiz, and I got 10/10 on the first try, which was quite lucky because I wasn't quite sure on most, and the WoW and D&D questions made me make a blind guess, so I'm amazed at my score, though I'll probably go straigt down pretty soon.

 

[Proteus214]

Outside of WoW lore, definitely not my strong suit =/

 

[zHellas]

I got 50%.

 

[TheTaco007]

Well, I failed it miserably. 3 of 10 right.

I thought it would be about dragons, not video games. I think I forgot for a moment where I was...still not awake yet...

Same here. 2/10. Apparently I don't know anything about dragons because I don't play WoW.

 

[Marmooset]

Badges? Do we get any stinking badges???

 

[Susan Arendt]

Badges? Do we get any stinking badges???

No, no badges for this quiz.

 

[Draithx]

60% knowing only the WoW one for sure, not bad.
It actually took me 3 tries to guess the animated D&D question, kind of embarrasing.

 

[Marmooset]

Badges? Do we get any stinking badges???

No, no badges for this quiz.

No problem:
(It was really just an excuse to show that.)

 

[Berserker119]

Badges? Do we get any stinking badges???

No, no badges for this quiz.

NOOOOOOOOOOO. This was one of the first quizzes that I could actually beat, too.

 

[Brainst0rm]

Bah! This wasn't a quiz about Dragons. It was a quiz about games with Dragons in them, which is rather different.

But, 50% on the first try, despite the fact that I knew for sure NONE of the questions. Go me xD
