Ionic Dragons are a species of fundamental dragon exclusive to the series of Dota: Dragon's Blood.

Habitat
The natural habitat of an ionic dragon is currently unknown, but it can be assumed that they are ubiquitous throughout the planet since all dragons are at one with creation and they must be found wherever their respective elements or forces may be in existence.

Characteristics
Incarnations of the charge that binds all of existence together, all ionic dragons are the forces of electricity and magnetism made flesh.

Each and every one of these ionic dragons, devoid of their own soul and consciousness, are the natural vessels of the dragon spirit Indrak who is the only supply of their soul and mind. They are mere extensions of the Eldwurm's embodiment in the physical plane. Thus all ionic dragons are and must be Indrak, but only one dragon at a time—and only the oldest dragons known as eldwurms—may be imbued with the soul of Indrak. None of these dragons have their own unique and individual identity, unless they are imbued with Indrak's soul.

Besides all of that, little is known about them because of their small presence in the animated series.

Life
All eight kinds of dragons undergo a life cycle that consists of five stages, excluding death which is an obvious part of the cycle: eggs, hatchlings, wyrmlings, adults, and eldwurms. For the ionic type, only the wyrmlings and eldwurms have been shown, the former making an appearance as a dismembered corpse in Dragon Hold and the latter displayed in Indrak's physical form, which is that of an ionic eldwurm.

The stage when a dragon can reproduce and lay eggs is currently unclear, but air wyrmlings are seen ferociously guarding their nests, implying that dragons can reproduce once they have grown into wyrmlings. However, it's also currently unknown if this applies to other types. The size of dragon eggs varies from species to species, with air dragon eggs being the size of an elephant bird's and earth dragon eggs almost reaching the size of an adult human. Ionic dragon eggs have yet to be seen.

It's unknown how long a dragon can live, but a rogue void eldwurm known as Kashurra lived for three thousand years.

Like everything else in the material plane, these lesser dragons are not eternal or immortal and will eventually succumb to old age as an eldwurm or die from other causes, but they will grow stronger as they age and reach the summit of their power when they grow into an eldwurm.

Fundamental Powers
So far, these dragons are never seen using their power while alive. Instead, we learn about their power from their remains being used as weapons. Like all other elemental and fundamental dragons, their powers remains active and ready to be used even after their death, the amount of power preserved in their remains being roughly proportional to the dragon's age before it died.

Kaden used the teeth of an ionic dragon to interrogate Davion on Slyrak's whereabouts. He claimed that they can force those who are pierced by them to tell the truth. This has not been confirmed yet, but later on we see that their bite carries a powerful electric current that can also prevent the regeneration of the wound that it is embedded on. The tooth's electric current is powerful enough to electrocute a large creature such as the Eldwurm Slyrak, and somehow its charge was able to electrocute Davion while he was in the roost of the The Thunder, which is implied to be a higher plane of existence than the material plane. The extreme power within a single ionic dragon's tooth was displayed in the final episode of Book 2, courtesy of Kaden. He threw an ionic dragon tooth towards the rogue void eldwurm Kashurra to electrocute him with a small but violent storm of massive lightning bolts. Although they didn't do anything to stop Kashurra in the slightest, their power is quite impressive nevertheless, being able to exude sizeable levins from such a small vessel of power. One can only imagine the vast power of an ionic dragon's jaws lined with all of its teeth if only a single tooth contains such power. We never see these ionic dragons use their power while alive (yet), but the dragon-forged armaments of the Dragon Knights are a glimpse of what they are capable of while alive. Dragon Hold's supply of electroshock weaponry all comes from these types of dragons. Kaden's gauntlets can channel an ionic dragon's power, as evident in their ability to be charged with electricity that can enhance his punches. Ionic dragons were also used to make bolts for Dragon Hold's ballista emplacements. These bolts can deliver an electric current that is powerful enough to shock a creature as big as a wyrmling, as seen on the left picture. A buckler in Dragon Hold's armory that might have been forged from an ionic dragon has the ability to project an electric barrier bigger than the buckler itself. The barrier can repel and electrocute anyone foolish enough to strike it when it is up. Said barrier can also redirect attacks that are less tangible such as the freezing breath of water wyrmlings. Its ability to repel stuff with electricity may have been based from electromagnetism and its repulsive properties, particularly electricity's.

Besides its ability to channel electrical powers, one can tell that this buckler is an ionic dragon product from the blue triskelion on the face of the shield. This triskelion is made from the same blue appendages that jut all over the head and the back of an ionic dragon, best seen on the form of the Eldwurm Indrak.

Personality
According to Kaden, ionic dragons do not lie, a trait that seems to be inherited from Indrak who deals in objective facts and speaks only truth. This seems to imply that they have a personality, despite the fact that all dragons that aren't Eldwurms are just soulless and mindless beasts.

Hunting
The Dragon Knights of Dragon Hold slay all kinds of dragons as part of their purpose to protect this world from its dragon scourge, including the ionic dragon species.

Despite all the death, destruction, and suffering that they inflict upon lesser beings, the Dragon Knights still respect these creatures with the full knowledge that they are still savage and wild animals. Part of these knights' creed includes honoring every dragon that they slay. This is not an empty credo, for they respect these dragons by making them useful even in death, harvesting every part of their remains—scales, flesh, and bone—to fashion into many useful stuff: weapons, armor, miscellaneous equipment, and even food or other luxuries. Sometimes, a village that survives a dragon-strike may get to keep the remains of their dragon terrorizer as a trophy.

Ionic dragons are no exception, their remains crafted into equipment that retains its power as seen in the "Fundamental Powers" section above.

Habitat
The earth dragons are fossorial creatures, meaning that they are burrowing dragons who spend their lives primarily, but not solely, underground. As such, they make their home in the earth element, dwelling in complex networks of interconnected tunnels that can span for approximately more than hundreds of meters, even bigger if it's excavated by an eldwurm. In these darkling warrens, the earth dragons lay their clutches in nesting chambers.

Habitat
As their name implies, void dragons live in the void of outer space.

Fundamental Powers
A void dragon's power is that of gravity and the dark void.

They can increase or decrease the pressure of gravity on their physical form. Increasing the influence of gravity on themselves, they can increase their own mass to add more force to their strikes. They can also increase the influence of gravity on others and the environment, immobilizing anyone and anything under their pressure. Their control is very precise, allowing them to affect one victim or object at a time

Their powers of gravity also extend to its influence on the fabric of spacetime. Void dragons can create massive rifts that suck people in
