The Macedonian Dragon is a breed of dragon that appears exclusively in supplementary media and is not considered part of the primary book canon. It is most notably featured in the video game adaptation of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. While various dragon breeds are central to the First Task of the Triwizard Tournament, the Macedonian Dragon is not one of the ten breeds officially listed in the book Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them or mentioned anywhere within the seven original novels.
Within the context of the Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire video game, the Macedonian Dragon is presented as one of the potential dragon challenges. Its history is not detailed, but it exists as an aggressive, fire-breathing obstacle that the player must overcome in a manner similar to how Harry Potter faced the Hungarian Horntail in the novel. The species serves a functional role in the game's mechanics rather than having a narrative backstory.
The Macedonian Dragon, as depicted in the video game, is a large, quadrupedal reptile with a formidable presence. (video game)
The primary magical ability of the Macedonian Dragon is its capacity to breathe a long stream of fire. This is its main offensive weapon, capable of causing immense damage. It also possesses immense physical strength, a hide resistant to many spells, and the ability to fly at high speeds. (video game)

The name Macedonian Dragon directly refers to the historical region of Macedonia in Southeast Europe, now primarily located within North Macedonia and parts of Greece and Bulgaria. This naming convention follows the pattern of other dragon breeds, which are often named for their country or region of origin, such as the Norwegian Ridgeback or the Chinese Fireball.
The Macedonian Dragon is a notable example of content created specifically for adaptations of the Harry Potter series and is not part of the original literary canon established by J.K. Rowling.
