The 12 Uses of Dragon's Blood - Harry Potter Theory

Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we’re discussing Albus Dumbledore and the discovery he made in his youth that made him famous. I am of course talking about his discovery of the 12 uses of Dragon’s Blood- an alchemical feat worthy of a place in the history books.
Today, when we think of Dumbledore’s achievements, the accomplishment that stands out most was his 1945 defeat of dark wizard Gellert Grindelwald, as he effectively saved the wizarding world from a perilous fate. After 1945, there wasn’t a wizarding household in the world that didn’t know his name.
However, what many don’t realize is that Dumbledore is also quite famous from his OTHER achievements in the wizarding world.
Dumbledore lived a long time, 115 years to be exact, and during his formative years he was able to achieve a LOT, beginning to impress other witches and wizards as early as the year 1893.
“In a matter of months, Albus’s own fame had begun to eclipse that of his father. By the end of his first year, he would never again be known as the son of a Muggle-hater, but as nothing more or less than the most brilliant student ever seen at the school.”
And for the remainder of Dumbledore’s studies, with his negative associations now a thing of the past, Dumbledore continued to excel- achieving every award and accolade imaginable.
After the death of his sister, he decided to take a trip to France where he visited his old friend Nicolas Flamel. Flamel was a famed alchemist, and it was in France that Dumbledore studied the ancient art and science of alchemy under his tutelage. After an unknown period of time, Dumbledore returned back to Britain- and it just so happened that in this time period Dumbledore became infatuated with the study of dragon’s blood- specifically it’s uses- a relatively uncharted subject in wizarding culture. Dragon blood was the blood of any of the many species of dragon, and it had 12 uses - all of which Dumbledore ‘discovered’ and subsequently published, earning him widespread recognition. Dumbledore was now world famous.
But despite this discovery catapulting Dumbledore to stardom, there are still a lot of UNKNOWNS when it comes to Dumbledore’s discovery- at least, from our perspective. While the uses of Dragon’s Blood were published in all sorts of alchemical manuscripts, we- the muggle readers- have never been enlightened as to what these 12 uses are. Today, I want to dig in and see what I can find on this subject.
First things first- what IS Dragon’s blood?
Dragon’s blood, as you might have expected, was blood extracted from any species of dragon- a dark red glutinous substance. The blood of a dragon was particularly powerful- but also adaptable- which is why it was eventually discovered to have so much practical application in the wizarding world. It’s worth noting, however, that Dragon’s weren’t the only magical creature with POWERFUL blood.
One sip of unicorn blood could keep witches and wizards alive even when they were an inch from death, but it did come with a big price tag- a condemnation to a cursed existence- a half-life.
Drinking the blood of a Re'em, a type of rare giant horse, granted the drinker immense strength for a short period of time.
And the blood of a Qilin, a mythical creature that was part-dragon and part-horse, had the ability to show people visions.
It’s clear that the blood of certain magical creatures has extremely powerful capabilities, but oddly enough the first two uses of Dragon’s blood that I want to discuss in this video seem fairly mundane by comparison.

Thanks for watching folks! Did you ever ask yourself what these 12 uses were? Comment your theories below!

[@joeviolet4185]

One use of Dragon's Blood, which is well documented in a piece of German Saga literature, the so called Nibelungenlied most of the German boys knew up to 50 years ago or even later, you didn't mention. Nibelungenlied is a poem from the middle ages describing the (more or less) heroic deeds of a family of germanic kings and their descendents including some reality from the time of the "barbaric migration" around the fifth century A.D. In this saga a knight called Siegfried of Xanten sets out to fight a dangerous dragon. To sucessfully perform this task, Siegfried makes use of a special sword prepared by a skilled blacksmith called Wieland. Wieland, in a tedious process of forging, was able to prepare swords that did not break when stressed too much. They rather gave way a little and could then still be used for further fight instead of being rendered worthless due to flying to pieces. The best of his swords, called Balmung, WIeland gives to Siegfried, who manages to kill the dragon with it. The blood squirts out of the dragon's veins and accumulates to a small pond in which Siegfried immerses himself completely before the blood drains away. The bath in the dragon's blood strenghtens Siegfried's skin so much, that he becomes invulnerable by the standard weapons of that time, like (regular) swords, spears, lances, arrows and axes. Unfortunately though, a leaf from a lime tree falls off and comes to rest on Siegfrieds back just in between his scapulae before he takes his magical invulnerabality bath. Thus, a small spot of his skin underneath the lime leaf isn't touched by the dragon's blood and stays unreinforced, this fact finally leading to Siegfried's untimely death, since Siegfried's wife, Kriemhild, beguiled by Hagen von Tronje, a friend of her brothers', gives away the secret location of the vulnerable spot, this information being used by Hagen to cowardly murder Siegfried from behind. Story's end: Outraged, Kriemhild plots for revenge. She marries Attila, King of the Huns, and, after some years invites the whole murderous gang of her brothers including Hagen to attend a festival at the king's court in the far east. After the feast, where Kriemhild manages to make everybody well-oiled, the Huns and the Germanes start a deadly row from which only Hagen remains alive in the end, still witlessly drunk. Kriemhild now takes Balmung and cuts off Hagen's head, thus getting her revenge. She, in turn, is immediately killed for her act of cowardice by Hildebrand, armourer of Theoderich of Verona, king of the Eastern Goths.

I somewhat doubt that the effects would be as easy to find as just consuming the blood, since I can't see someone getting famous from that. I also get the feeling that dragon blood is toxic, which could be why the raw dragon steak helps with pain, as it kills bacteria and possibly dulls the pain receptors.

[@ravenregards]

I think you're spot on with #4 especially from the text regarding Hagrid. For #10 I had to chuckle as what came to mind is someone who inhales helium and the temporary result on the vocal cords.

I've always wondered if the Philosopher's stone and it's elixir could have saved Dumbledore from the deadly ring curse. Nicolas Flamel had destroyed the original stone and accepted that he could now experience death, but the story never specifically mentioned whether he and his wife would die immediately or years in the future...

[@davidanbudurai5931]

I have always wondered why Voldemort never went for the Philosopher's stone when he was an up and coming Dark Wizard...

[@vignotum132]

@@davidanbudurai5931 I think the canon answer is that he didn't want to be dependent on anything. The Horcruxes are at least his own soul and don't have to be visited commonly, unlike the Elixir of Life. Also, the Elixir doesn't stop aging, only death.

[@BecauseImBatmanFilms]

Another reason Voldemort wouldn't like a Stone is because someone else can steal and use it. Even if a Horcrux is stolen, it can't then help the new owner and if it is destroyed, Voldy can make more. He isn't that worried about mutilating his soul further

[@macwelch8599]

I wonder if you could use a dragon claw or scale for a wand-core instead of a dragon heartstring

[@HarryPotterTheory]

I think that a lot of the power comes from the heart itself. The dragon heartstring most likely derives it power from its close proximity with the heart.

[@macwelch8599]

[@matchaeylle]

@@HarryPotterTheory then what about the horned serpent horn wand cores? 😮😅

[@charlesbrentner4611]

I'd think it possible but that heart string is not only more plentiful (dragons having fairly large hearts) but also probably far easier to work with in terms of fitting within a wand blank. Dragon scales and claws are likely very hard to cut and shape to fit.

[@lucasaymeric9627]

So, it's not much a use as a side effect, but it confirms the use in potions. I personally think that dragon's blood can cause to the wizards that drink it dragon's pox, but only in some of the situations, not all of them obviously, but I think it is very much plausible that infected dragon's blood can pass on the infection to the drinker.

Ehh, I could see dragon’s blood being key in a lot of potions. And it could produce a result when drunk straight, but not 3 or 4. It could easily be a key ingredient in the strengthening solution and in liquid luck. It would be rather disappointing if most of the uses were so ordinary.

[@melanezoe]

[@seiyuokamihimura5082]

If you'd like me to further delve into the details on dragonsblood, I'd very much be willing to tell you each plants name, and what their uses are.

[@charlesbrentner4611]

I could see it as being used in potions meant to stimulate a patient who was close to death or at least badly injured, much like adrenalin is used in our Muggle hospitals when a patient is in need of something to help stimulate the heart for example. Dragons are very strong creatures (or so it appears) so I could see substances that are natural to a dragon's system being found in their blood.

[@lonestarwolfentertainment7184]

If Dragon Blood can mimic Human Blood I wonder if it would be able to Substitute it in Blood Transfusions (maybe that’s where Blood Replenishment Potions come from).

[@PolinaLee94]

My theory is simple - If dragon blood can be used as a cleaning solution and anti-akne medicine, it's probably somewhat acidic or/and alkaline in nature, but with strong magic in it. It's a thick liquid with it's own animal magic that doesn't need to be added in by a caster. So it can be used to make stuff simular to what acid and/or alkaline are used for in muggle world and what magical components are used for in magical world (combined or irrespective of dragon blood's chemical composition). - Obviously, potion ingredient - To help make paint, perfume and fabric with magical properties - Anti-akne cream ingredient - Ingredient in stomach medicine - To make potion bases and spell helpers that involve electicity - To make energy batteries for machines (using alkaline in it) - To make a "magic battery" for machines, charms, creatures or magicians (using magic in it) - To make some potion ingredients cleaner or more pure (both alkaline and magic of dragin blood) - As an ingredient of fire protection creams or substances - As a base liquid for transfiguration that needs magical substance thicker than water - Ingredient in cleaning products (like J.K said) - Ingredient in magical bombs and fireworks

Chinese dragons are not completely the same as dragons in western lore, those two kinds of dragons are either completely different mythical creatures that share the same name or different species of dragons. Some Chinese dragons are also associated with water, they would live in water bodies and bring rain. So maybe it would make more sense to limit the good luck use of dragon's blood only to the blood from Chinese dragons, since the two kinds of dragons are very different and regarded differently in their respective cultures.
