Dragons are one of the most prominent beings in High School DxD, as well as being one of the most powerful. The majority of Dragons do not align with any of the three factions. The most famous of the Dragons are the Five Dragon Kings (五大龍王 Godai RyūŌundefined), Two Heavenly Dragons (二天龍 Nitenryūundefined) , and the Two Divine Dragons (二神龍 Nishinryūundefined).

Great Red (グレートレッド Gurēto Reddoundefined)

 * Called the  Apocalypse Dragon  (真なる赤龍神帝（アポカリュプス・ドラゴン） Apkaryupusu Doragonundefined), the Great Red is one of the two Divine Dragons that are above the Heavenly Dragons. The second largest Dragon after Midgardsormr, the Great Red is known as the most powerful Dragon in existence. Called "The True Red Dragon God Emperor" and the "True Dragon". The Great Red lives in a dimensional gap and does not interfere in the world.
 * The Great Red represents fantasy.

Orpheus (オーフィス Ōfisuundefined)

 * Known as the Uroboros Dragon (無限の龍神（ウロボロス・ドラゴン） Uroborosu Doragonundefined), Ophis is the founder and leader of the Chaos Brigade and one of the 'two Divine' Dragons that are above the Two Heavenly Dragons and is said to be more powerful than God and Satan. The second most powerful dragon after the Great Red, Ophis created the Chaos Brigade in hopes of getting rid of the Great Red from the dimensional gap. She was betrayed by Sousou who stole her power under the intention of creating another Ophis, rendering her in a presumed powerless state. Sousou, however, underestimated Ophis as she has released her powers in forms of snakes before Sousou came to steal her powers. As such Ophis did not lose 75% of her powers. Like the Great Red, Ophis does not like interfere in the matters of the world, having interest only in the Great Red.
 * As her title implies, Ophis represents the infinite.

Two Heavenly Dragons
Ddraig (ドライグ Doraiguundefined)
 * Voiced by: Fumihiko Tachiki
 * Ddraig is the Red Dragon sleeping within Issei. Ddraig is, in fact, one of the two Heavenly Dragons known as the Welsh Dragon (赤い龍（ウェルシュ・ドラゴン） Werushu Doragonundefined) and the Red Dragon Emperor (赤龍帝 Sekiryūteiundefined) that has the power the destroy both God and Satan. In the past, Ddraig fought against his arch-rival, the Vanishing Dragon, Albion, which was interfered with by the Angels and Devils. In anger, both Dragons attacked both sides, which led to their bodies being destroyed and their souls moved to two separate Sacred Gears, with Ddraig moved to the Red Dragon Emperor's Gauntlet. Ddraig has telepathically communicated with Issei on various occasion, giving him advice on his fight, and calls Issei his "Partner".
 * Ddraig has been brought to tears on many occasions due to Issei's lecherous ways and people calling the two of them "Breast Dragon Emperor" to a point that Ddraig is now in a state of constant depression. As of Volume 10 of the light novels, Ddraig will start crying upon hearing the word "Breast".


 * Albion (アルビオン Arubionundefined)
 * The other Heavenly Dragon known as the Vanishing Dragon (白い龍（バニシング・ドラゴン） アルビオン Banishing Doragon?) and the White Dragon Emperor (白龍皇 Hakuryūkō?), Albion is the White Dragon residing within Vali Lucifer as the Sacred Gear "Divine Dividing". Similar to Ddraig, Albion also has the ability to telepathically communicate with Vali.

Five Dragon Kings

 * Like Ddraig, Albion has been brought to tears on many occasions due to Issei's lecherous ways and people calling Issei and Ddraig the "Breast Dragon Emperor", which resulted in Albion feeling depressed on the fact that they are his rivals. This became even worse after Odin, who wanted to know Vali's interest in women, called them the "Butt Dragon Emperor" (ケツ龍皇 Ketsuryūkō?)


 * Vritra (ヴリトラ Vuritora?)
 * The evil Black Dragon known as the Prism Dragon (黒邪の龍王（プリズン・ドラゴン） Purizumu Doragon?) and one of the five Dragon Kings.

These four parts of Vritra's soul have different appearances and have been collected and sealed in Saji's Body. Azazel hypothesized that due to contact with Issei, Vritra's consciousness appeared and might possibly unify all the different Sacred Gears because the other Sacred Gears melted together and Vritra's consciousness was restored. Vritra possesses a wide range of special abilities. Though its power might be the lowest amongst the Dragon Kings, Vritra is the king of techniques in terms of variety and unconventionality.

 * Fafnir (ファーブニル Fābuniru?)
 * A Golden Dragon known as the Gigantis Dragon (黄金龍君（ギガンティス・ドラゴン） Gigantis Doragon?) . Fafnir is one of the Five Dragon Kings that is sealed inside Azazel's artificial Sacred Gear.


 * Midgardsormr (ミドガルズオルム Midogaruzuorumu?)
