      What do you call a group of dragons?

      A pride of dragons?
      A trove of dragons?
      An expenditure of dragons?

      Make up some.

          A flight of dragons. A flock of dragons.

              “A Confabulation of Dragons”

              I have always been fascinated by the words that have become the names for groups of various types of animals, such as a gaggle of geese, a pod of whales, or a pride of lions, which are some of the more commonly used terms. But there are also those like a mob of kangaroos, a convocation of eagles and two of my favorites: a skulk of foxes and a parliament of owls.

              In that vein, I was wondering what a group of dragons might be called, hence “A Confabulation of Dragons.” Scott Gustafson

                A parliament of dragons
                A coalition of dragons
                A brood of dragons
                A skulk of dragons

                A… murder of dragons? Guess that only sounds cool with crows.

                    🙂 I like a “charm of dragons” or a “knot of dragons” 🙂

                      I have to agree with Lupus on a “Clutch”. Clutch makes me think of 2 things-a clutch purse (which has money or gold coins which dragons love) and a nest full of lil’ baby alligators.

                      I’d also go with
                      a coven of dragons

                          I like the Skein of dragons. Sounds cool.

                              I think Melody’s suggestion of “an overdraft of dragons” was exactly right. Flight and financial impact in one neat phrase.

                                Fire-based
                                A blaze of dragons
                                An inferno of dragons

                                Wind-based
                                A draft of dragons (while overdraft might be appropriate in some cases, the basis for this one is the wind off their wings when flying/landing/taking off in groups)
                                A whirlwind of dragons

                                Sound-based (imagine the noise of a bunch of dragons!)
                                A cacophony of dragons
                                A clamber of dragons
                                A dissonance of dragons
                                A tumult of dragons

                                Observer-based (Imagine walking through some beautiful meadow, coming over a rise, and there are dragons!)
                                A terror of dragons
                                A dread of dragons
                                An admiration of dragons
                                An impression of dragons
                                An amazement of dragons

                                Treasure-based
                                A sparkle of dragons
                                A hoard of dragons
                                A cache of dragons
