The '''Draik''' (a [[wikipedia:homophone|homophone]] of ''[[wiktionary:drake|drake]]'', an archaic word for a [[Wikipedia:dragon|dragon]]) is a [[Wikipedia:Dragon|dragon]]-like [[Neopet]], released on June 25, 2002. They appeared in [[Neopia]] as if they had come from another world - later discovered to be [[Meridell]]. | |||
Draiks are curious Neopets that [http://www.neopets.com/tcg/displayCard.phtml?edid=2&id=27 like to hunt], and like [[Scorchio]]s they can [http://www.neopets.com/tcg/displayCard.phtml?edid=9&id=7 breath fire] and fly. They are popularly featured as guards, being seen guarding [[Meridell Castle]] during the [[Champions of Meridell]] [[plot]] and [[Altador]] and [[Brightvale]] during [[The Faeries' Ruin]] plot; despite only being around [http://www.neopets.com/tcg/displayCard.phtml?edid=2&id=5 three feet tall]. They can support themselves on their tails, like [[Blumaroo]]s. | |||
[[Image:Old draik pose.gif|left|frame|A draik standing on its tail.]] | |||
Where Draiks were first released, a [[Limited Edition|limited number]] of them were available through the Create-a-Pet system. No more have been released in that way (at least, not [http://www.neopets.com/ntimes/index.phtml?section=editorial&week=409 intentionally]). Draiks are instead obtained from hatching a Draik Egg. A Draik Egg is a rare, lucrative [[food]] [[item]] available from the [[Merifoods]], but if taken to the [[Draik Nest]] in Meridell, it can be allowed to hatch. It will hatch into a Draik of whatever colour the egg is - either [[Blue]], [[Red]], [[Yellow]], [[Green]], [[Darigan]], [[Ice]], [[Lost Desert]], [[Pirate]], [[Zombie]], or [[Island]]. Owning a Draik and visiting the nest will also give the user an [[avatar]]. | |||
In the [[Neopets Trading Card Game]], they are associated with the element of Fire. | |||
