The movie features a sorcerer's apprentice named Galen Brandwarden (Creator/PeterMacNicol), who studies under an old wizard named Ulrich (Creator/RalphRichardson). One day, they are visited by a group of farmers from a distant kingdom named Urland, led by a young man named Valerian. He explains that their land is threatened by a dragon, Vermithrax Pejorative, and that twice each year they feed it a virgin, chosen by a lottery, to keep it from destroying the kingdom. Ulrich agrees to help, but the farmers have been followed by Tyrian, the king's knight. The king of Urland, Casiodorus Rex, is anxious to avoid stirring up the dragon, and Tyrian demands a test of the sorcerer's magic. Ulrich fearlessly allows Tyrian to stab him to death, using his magic to prevent Galen from interfering.

* MonsterDelay: For much of the movie, Vermithrax is shown in bits and pieces: a clawed foot, a wing, the end of its tail, the outline of its head with something (or someone) blocking the head itself... Even when the whole dragon is first shown, it's just a distant shape in the air as it flies over and attacks the town. The audience doesn't see Vermithrax in all its nightmarish detail until at least two-thirds of the way through the movie.

* {{Novelization}}: The film's adds quite a bit of backstory to Galen, Valerian, Ulrich, Hodge, and even the (unnamed in the film) girl sacrificed to the dragon on-screen, but it's also quite different from the film in many respects. It also mentions Vermithrax mated with the last male dragon.

** Galen's words also apply to Vermithrax, who somehow recovers from a quite nasty spear wound to the throat.
