The '''Dragoon''' is a high-ranking [[Nobody]] controlled by [[Xaldin]] that is found in ''[[Kingdom Hearts II]]''.


==Design==
The '''Dragoon''' is a [[Nobody]] that mostly appear in [[Beast's Castle]]. It is controlled by [[Xaldin]].
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 is very spiky, and wields lances. Though most Nobodies are white, it is mostly purple.


The Dragoon's pose in its official render mimics that of {{ff|Kain Highwind}}, a Dragoon from ''Final Fantasy IV''.
Dragoons and their master are, technically, the ''Kingdom Hearts'' homage to the Dragoon/Dragon Knight character class of the original ''Final Fantasy'' series due to their usage of spears, being dragon-themed (the Nobodies themselves appear as humanoid dragons and Xaldin's spears are dragon-shaped as is his strongest attack) and that they use the Jump ability, the job's signature ability. The fact that these Nobodies, plus Xaldin's spears, are purple also stems from the fact that the standard ''Final Fantasy'' Dragoon wears purple or dark blue dragon armor or clothing.
 
==Journal Entry==
''A dragoon. A high-ranking Nobody. When a ball of light appears after parrying its attacks, use Learn. Time it accurately, to use Jump to attack.''
 
''Learn can be used as often as possible, so a series of Jump attacks is one strategy option.''
 
==Appearances==
* [[Twilight Town]]
* [[Beast's Castle]]
* [[Olympus Coliseum]]
* [[The World That Never Was]]


==Strategy==
==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. In [[The World That Never Was]], where they appear at high levels, they can be eliminated with Eternal Session.

The Jump ability also becomes extremely useful when fighting Xaldin. In The World That Never Was when they appear at high levels they can be elimated with Session.
 
== Trivia ==
*The Dragoon's real face is actually in what appears to be its neck. The draconian head acts as a helmet for this variety of Nobody.
 
*A Dragoon is a term used to describe a mounted halberd wielding soldiers. This may explain their horse-like legs and halberd-like lance.
 
*Dragoon is named after a job in Final Fantasy.
 
*Dragoon is also the name of a bit-beast in the anime "Beyblade".


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.
