Elemental Dragons in Genshin Impact: The Seven Lords of Teyvat
In ancient times, before the coming of the First Throne, Teyvat was ruled by seven dragon lords, similar to those of today Hearts of the Gods.
Anemo dragon
It is unknown who the first Anemo dragon was, however, most likely the current one is Dwalin - one of the Guardians of the four winds and friend Caenri'ah, Anemo Archon turned to his comrade for help to fight the shadow dragon Durin. Dwalin managed to defeat a dangerous enemy, but was poisoned by his blood, which is why he fell into a sleep for several centuries, and when he woke up, he lost his mind and became angry with people.
According to the plot of the game By Storm Terror Dvalin.
Geo dragon
One of the most ancient rulers is the stone dragon Azhdah. He dominates the geovishaps and is able to control the arteries of the earth. Once upon a time, a dragon was a comrade Geo Archon, but due to the influence of erosion, he lost control of himself and began to attack the people he swore to protect. Morax was forced to seal Ajdha under the tree of suppression at the Southern Heavenly Gate.
In Azhdahoy.
Electro dragon
Nothing is known about the Electro Dragon at the moment. However, there is a theory that he is Ursa from the official Genshin Impact manga. Once upon a time, a monster hunted Vennessa’s tribe, and then, when her people ended up in Mondstadt, the dragon attacked the city. His attack was repelled by the girl with the of Anemo Archon. After some time, Ursa was killed Snowy.
Dendro dragon Apep
Apep - Dendro dragon that lives in Celestia, however, the Sky Spike was dropped on him, causing the tropical forests of the Dendro region to turn into a desert.
Hydro Dragon Nevillet
In Fontaine's story, the Traveler learns that Neuvillette is the rebirth of Hydro Overlord. He its this himself, but the man does not have memories of the dragon’s past and at the time of the game he is trying to understand why he was born this way and why he was sent to the kingdom of justice.
Piro dragon of Xbalanque
The most likely Pyro dragon at the moment may be Xbalanque. The theory is based on the fact that his name is mentioned in Nevillet's vision card, which says that they (probably the dragons) will return and the real test will begin. Also interesting is his title "Buried by Primordial Fire", which may hint at a connection with the Pyro region Natlan.
Cryo dragon
One of the most mysterious overlords at the time of the game remains the Cryo dragon. He was not mentioned either in the plot or in dialogues with other dragons. Probably, information about the creature will appear with the release of Snezhnaya.
Dragon Lord Nibelung
The leader of the seven dragon lords is the dragon lord Nibelung. There is no information available regarding his elemental power.
When the Celestial Order attacked Teyvat, the Nibelung received forbidden power beyond the borders of the world and hoped that it would help achieve victory, but this did not happen. The war caused enormous destruction and the world was on the verge of collapse. During the battle, Nibelung died, and Celestia received the right to rule Teyvat.
Dragons created by Reindottir
Separately, it is necessary to note the creatures created or summoned by the mentor Albedo, Reindottir, since among them there are two dragons - Durin and Elinas.
Durin
The shadow dragon Durin was artificially created by Reindottir. 500 years ago, he rose from the sea and attacked Mondstadt, but was defeated by the Guardian of the Four Winds, Dwalin. Durin's body fell on dragon backbone, where it remains to lie until modern times.
The dragon's last thoughts before he breathed his last showed that Durin had no evil intentions, but simply saw the world differently and wanted to befriend Barbatos and Dwalin so they could have fun together.
Elinas
Another creation of Albedo's mentor is the dragon Elinas, whose remains rest in the Beryl District of Fontaine. Finding himself in the human world, like Durin, the monster wanted to live peacefully, enjoying being in a new place.
However, the dragon realized that his existence brought pain to all living things, and then he fell from the sky and died in the Hydro Kingdom. While his consciousness was alive, a battle took place inside his body, which left Elinas with wounds. Of these were later born melusines, and the dragon helped them create a village and taught them everything he knew.

The article needs to be corrected taking into the lore from 4.6. Scylla is not the name of Lord Hydro, it is a different dragon altogether. The name of Nevillet and his predecessor is still unknown.
Azhdaha cannot be a dragon lord, since he was born later than Morax. Morax himself found him in the ground and created his body
Morax found it because the essence of Azhdha in the earth was disturbing order with earthquakes. How many years Azhdakha was sealed in stone is unknown, he is the most ancient geovishap
azhdahu did not create juggles, he simply gave the remnant of the geo dragon a new body, and this remnant itself is older than even Celestia
the cryo dragon should be the serpent gorynych
I was waiting for this comment.
where did it say that Elinasa was created by peindottir? As far as I , he calls his creator Mother, and seems to ambiguously hint that he came from another world
this was not stated directly, but apparently it is most likely that it was she who summoned the “dragon soul” into the body
Zhongli is also a Geo Dragon
he is an archon, and there is no way he can be a dragon. He can transform into a dragon, and the geo dragon is Ajaha
Zhongli is an Archon. Li Yue's storyline mentioned that the Archons could take any form.
No, he is an adept, and can simply take the form of a dragon at will. Dragons simply by the fact that they are dragons cannot be archons
If juggling is a geo dragon, then nahida is a hydro mushroom
Brilliant!
He is an archon, not a dragon.
