Drakes are a class of monster, i.e. a species in the bestiary of Guild Wars. They are a sub-species of Dragons. Drakes are reptile creatures, resembling dinosaurs or giant lizards. Some are rather sturdy, with stout legs, short neck and tail, while others are slim, with long, snake-like tail and neck. Some have small wing stubs on their back, none of them seem to be able to fly though.
