Breath of Fire: The Dragon Warrior (ブレスオブファイア 竜の戦士 , Breath of Fire: Ryū no Senshi?) was originally released in Japan in 1993 and later localized as Breath of Fire. It is the first entry in the Breath of Fire series of console role-playing games. Developed by Capcom for the Super Famicom, it was licensed a year later by Square Soft for release in North America. Capcom independently released a Game Boy Advance port of the game in 2001.
Breath of Fire takes place in the years following a great civil war between the Dragon clans. The Light Dragons are dwindling, reduced to hiding in small villages. The protagonist is Ryu, a young Light Dragon who awakens one night to find his home set on fire by Dark Dragons. After his sister is captured in the attack, Ryu sets off to rescue her. In the process, he joins a race to uncover seven mystical keys, before the Dark Dragons can use them to unlock a goddess of destruction.
