The '''Dragoon''' is a high-ranking [[Nobody]] controlled by [[Xaldin]] that is found in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''.
The '''Dragoon''' is a high-ranking [[Nobody]] controlled by [[Xaldin]] that is found in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''.
==Strategy==
Dragoons are one of the most powerful Nobodies. When they appear, they drop directly to the ground, causing damage. Jump to avoid the shockwave attack, and then lead up with a combo. They use the jump attack constantly, and it can make fighting difficult. Sora can use the Learn [[Reaction Command]], followed by Jump to eliminate them more easily. The Jump ability also becomes extremely useful when fighting their master, Xaldin. In [[The World That Never Was]], where they appear at high levels, they can be eliminated with Session.


==Design==
==Design==
A Dragoon is a thin, dragon-like creature with silver and purple skin. Its hands only have two distinct digits, while its feet have three long, purple toes each. It also has a thin, purple tail and sharp, white wings with purple tips lined by spikes resembling those on the Nobody symbol. The Dragoon's real face is a small round and black head with a closed jagged mouth located within its neck, which is hollow, while its draconian "head" acts as something of a helmet. This "helmet" sports a jagged, open mouth at its end, lacks eyes, and is lined by thin spikes. The Dragoon's upper body and "neck" are covered in magenta straps. There is also a white Nobody sigil on its left thigh. Like all lesser Nobodies, Dragoons have astounding levels of flexibility. It wields a [[Nobody Lance]] in battle, which it has a 1% chance of dropping upon defeat for [[Donald]] to use as a [[staff]].

The Dragoon is based on the {{ff|Dragoon (job)|eponymous job class}} from ''Final Fantasy''. This in turn was named after the real life {{w|dragoon|cavalry}} used by the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries armies in Europe and in the American Revolution. In addition, the "Learn" Reaction Command is used by {{ff|Blue Mage}}s in the ''Final Fantasy'' series in order to mimic monster abilities.


The Dragoon's pose in its official render mimics that of {{ff|Kain Highwind}}, a Dragoon from ''Final Fantasy IV''.

When a Dragoon prepares its Spinning Swing attack while another Dragoon appears, the latter Dragoon will remain invincible, untargettable, and invisible, until it uses Jump again.
