The Draik is a Dragon-like Neopet, primarily from the land of Meridell and featured as knights and castle guards. Released on June 25, 2005, Draiks appeared in Neopia without any warning, seeming to come from another world (found out later to be Meridell). Were released as Limited Edition Neopets along with Ixis, but while Ixis are now available normally, no more Draiks have been released. Instead they became available through special use of an item, the Draik Egg, similar to the way a Krawk is received.

Draiks are curious Neopets that love to hunt, but never know what to do with their prey once they catch it. They also love going on adventures which can take them far away from home. It's also assumed the average Draik to be 3 feet tall as shown by the Neopets TCG card Draik Soldier.

Besides hatching a Draik from a Draik Egg, a user can also buy a Morphing Potion to change their Neopet, or take them to the Lab Ray. All methods, however, are expensive, as the Lab Ray is in high demand and Draik Eggs and Morphing Potions are in limitted number. The facts users recieve an Avatar for owning a Draik and visiting the Draik Nest makes it all the more expensive. Because of the difficulty it takes to own a Draik, they are considered a symbol of ones status in Neopets.

Trivia

As of September 2006, there are a little over 10,000 Draiks created (limited number of 7000), placing them 53rd in popularity out of 54 Neopets, are featured in 98 different items, and come in 35 different colours.
In the Neopets TCG, Draiks are associated with the element of Fire.

-Draiks were originally released as [[Limited Edition]] along with [[Ixi]]s when [[Meridell]] was discovered. Shortly after, Ixis became available normally. However, no more Draiks were released, and instead they became available through special use of an item, the '''Draik Egg''' (similar to the [[Krawk]]).

-Draiks were featured heavily in the two Meridell [[plot]]s, since the guards at Meridell Castle are composed almost entirely of them. They are very popular among users and are highly desirable, however, this combined with the rarity of the Draik Eggs has caused them to become quite expensive. Some users opt for buying the slightly-cheaper [[Morphing Potions]] in order to get them, while others take pride in their egg-created or "natural born" Draiks.

-They come in a wide variety of colors including many redraws, such as the zombie-like [[Mutant]] and the elegant [[Maraquan]]. These redraws are generally considered much better than the normal pet, which some dislike because of its large head and awkward positioning. Still, most users would be greatful for a Draik of any type, since they are so pricy that they are considered a status symbol.
