In the first movie, ''[[Shrek]]'', Dragon had the task of guarding [[Princess Fiona]] in her isolated castle. The number of charred skeletons clearly visible indicates her success in this endeavour. While [[Shrek (character)|Shrek]] attempted to rescue the princess, [[Donkey (Shrek)|Donkey]] found himself distracting Dragon. As part of this distraction, upon learning the Dragon was a female (colouring on her eyes and lips looks a lot like makeup) he exclaimed that she was "reeking of feminine beauty", and Dragon promptly fell in love with him (fluttering her eyelashes, blowing heart-shaped smoke rings, and wrapping and cuddling him with her tail despite his objections) [http://www.emile-zwaltek.com/3d/pdi/shrk/stills/1100/1105/1105.html]. When the rescue was accomplished, and Donkey stolen away from her, Dragon chased Shrek, Donkey and Fiona out of the castle. After the getaway, she did not reappear until towards the end of the movie, in which it was discovered that she had followed Donkey, presumably because of his "animal magnetism".

Image of Dragon needed: use the one at [1])

Dragon is a fictional character from the computer animated Dreamworks film Shrek as well as its spin-offs and sequels. Dragon resembles most classical interpretations of European fire-breathing dragons. Her features are dark red scales, purple eyelids and cheeks, long fin-shaped ears, white canine teeth, bony spikes along her cheeks, a row of quills along her back, green eyes with black diamond-shaped pupils, a golden chest, enormous bendable bat wings, a long serpent's tail, and a diamond-shaped tip at the end of her tail. Dragon cannot speak, but is nevertheless highly expressive in her actions and mannerisms. Unlike a typical dragon, she is also very kind and extremely beautiful, which allows her to seduce any male creature she meets, like Donkey. Dragon is not properly named in either movie, although comments by Princess Fiona in Shrek 2 suggest that her name might simply be "Dragon". However, www.oafe.net suggests that her name is "Diane."

In the first movie, Shrek, Dragon had the task of guarding Princess Fiona in her isolated castle. The number of charred skeletons clearly visible indicates her success in this endeavour. While Shrek attempted to rescue the princess, Donkey found himself distracting Dragon. As part of this distraction, upon learning the Dragon was a female (colouring on her eyes and lips looks a lot like makeup) he exclaimed that she was "reeking of feminine beauty", and Dragon promptly fell in love with him (fluttering her eyelashes, blowing heart-shaped smoke rings, and wrapping and cuddling him with her tail despite his objections) [3]. When the rescue was accomplished, and Donkey stolen away from her, Dragon chased Shrek, Donkey and Fiona out of the castle. When they escaped over the mountain, she cried, revealing her kind amorous nature. After the getaway, she did not reappear until towards the end of the movie, in which it was discovered that she had followed Donkey, presumably because of his "animal magnetism". Having abandoned her mission of guarding the castle, she was intrumental in defeating Lord Farquaad and saving Shrek and Fiona.

Dragon reappeared in Shrek 4-D, in which she helped Shrek and Donkey evade a statue of a dragon that had been brought to life. In Shrek 2, Dragon is absent for much of the movie. Donkey claims at the start that she has been "moody and irritable" for some time, explaining his unannounced arrival at Shrek's swamp. Nevertheless, Dragon makes a full appearance in a post-credits scene, in which she arrives with six baby dragon-donkey hybrids, her previous moodiness being indicative of pregnancy.
