Template:Youmay Template:PlaceOriginal The Dragon Realms (ドラゴン・リゾート Dragon Resort in Japanese) are diverse worlds the make up the primary home of the Dragons in the Spyro the Dragon series and throughout the majority of the Spyro franchise.
History
In Spyro: Year of the Dragon, it is revealed that the Dragons originally came from the Forgotten Realms before they were banished by the Sorceress to the other side of the world, where they settled and named their new home the Dragon Realms.
Appearances
Spyro the Dragon
The Dragon Realms first appeared in the game Spyro the Dragon for the PlayStation, in which Spyro traveled to six playable homeworlds within the Realms. This world made cameo appearances in Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage! and Spyro: Year of the Dragon.
In the original games of Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage! and Spyro: Year of the Dragon, the Dragon Realms' main homeworld (as seen in the intros of both games) does have various portals worth noting is the portal to Dragon Shores, as seen in Spyro 2's intro. In Year of the Dragon, Spyro and Hunter venture through a hole in the realm to reach the first homeworld of the Forgotten Realms.
In Spyro Reignited Trilogy, this "realm" seems to be non-existent, with its role in the trilogy mainly being replaced by the grassy plains of Stone Hill.
Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly
It wasn't until Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly that "The Dragon Realms" became a playable world. While not explicitly stated in Enter the Dragonfly, the homeworld in this game, referred to simply as "The Dragon Realms," is geographically connected to the other "Dragon Realm" homeworlds.
The main area is a beautifully crafted homeworld full of lush green fields and comprised of a predominately hilly landscape. As Spyro leaves the main area of the Dragon Realms, the landscape varies depending on which passage to another realm is close by. For the boss level, you jump in a portal located in front of the castle after completing all levels.
"The Dragon Realms" itself is technically a homeworld in "Dragon Realms" much like other homeworlds. The focal point of this world is the Castle, which leads to Dragon Castles (from Spyro Orange). This area surrounding the castle serves as the solitary homeworld in Enter the Dragonfly. Unlike other homeworlds in the Dragon Realms, this homeworld does not contain portals, but instead, other forms of transportation to its connected realms. For example, to get to Crop Circle Country, Spyro rides a UFO from a barn.
Spyro: Shadow Legacy
The history of the Dragon Realms was somewhat retconned in this storyline, with a storybook legend in the game stating that the Dragon Realms was either founded by a group of ancient dragons that fled a natural catastrophy in the Forgotten Realms, or was discovered by the Great Sea Dragon.

Trivia
- In the Spyro: Enter the Dragonfly instruction manual, a picture is featured of a portal in the castle instead of the closed doors in the actual game. It could have been the portal to the removed level Enchanted Forest.
- In Enter the Dragonfly, rock spitting was to be a feature in Dragon Realms, but was cut.[1]
- Having no portals in the Enter the Dragonfly version of the Dragon Realms could be a possible developer oversight. The developers either didn't know about portals in the original trilogy, or they simply ignored the fact to rush development. It may have been useless to have the same portals that would lead to Spyro the Dragon homeworlds or Dragon Shores, while considering the development time frame.
