How can I summon an ender dragon so it won't break blocks?
I've been wanting to summon an Ender Dragon in the Overworld. But I don't want it to destroy my map. And I'm not going to turn the entire map into end stone and obsidian.
I have been using the /summon EnderDragon command. It will summon the dragon, but it just destroys everything.
Best Answer
Summon a EnderDragon with no AI:
/summon EnderDragon ~ ~ ~ {NoAI:1}
Mobs with no AI will not move and will not be animated.

How do you get the Ender dragon to stay in one place?
As FEichinger explained, it's impossible keep an Ender Dragon in place using building blocks. But you can continuously teleport the Dragon to the same location using a Command Block with the /tp command (since snapshot 14w02a it can work on any entities, not just players).What blocks can Ender Dragons not break?
The Ender Dragon swoops at a player, destroying any blocks she passes through, with the exception of blocks that naturally generate on the central End island (such as End Stone, obsidian, bedrock, and Iron Bars) and indestructible blocks such as Crying Obsidian and Respawn Anchors.How do you summon an Ender dragon without moving it?

Answer 2
If you don't need other mobs to be able to break stuff, then you can just do this before you summon the dragon:
/gamerule mobGriefing false
But try using tab to autocomplete those words to make sure the capitalization is correct.
Answer 3
If you want the Ender Dragon to not do anything, summon it with this command:
/summon EnderDragon ~ ~ ~ {NoAI:1}
But, then it is not animated and is pretty much just a statue. If you want the ender dragon to fly around, hurt people, but not damage blocks, use this gamerule and then summon a regular enderdragon:
/gamerule mobGriefing false
You may want to use tab to make sure capitalization and spelling is correct.
