Dragonsleep is when a dragon, either a metallic dragon or chromatic dragon, is put into suspended animation until wakened by either Takhisis or Paladine. A mortal can wake a dragon at the behest of a god, such as when Ariakas woke Tombfyre prior to the War of the Lance.
Almost all dragons on Krynn were put into dragonsleep following the Third Dragon War in 1018 PC. There were a few exceptions that almost broke the peace following the war on Ansalon.
