 Dragonlances are weapons first created in the Third Dragon War , designed with the purpose of killing evil dragons , and are the only weapons with which mortals can kill dragons . Dragonlances have this power because of the way in which they are created , which requires the use of " two god @-@ blessed artifacts " . The weapons clearly draw upon Christian iconography , as the two mythical figures shown defeating dragons , Archangel Michael and Saint George , are often portrayed wielding lances to do so .
