Rise of the True Dragons (SR02-EN025)
Return of the Dragon Lords
SPELL / Normal Spell
Target 1 Level 7 or 8 Dragon-Type monster in your Graveyard; Special Summon it. If a Dragon-Type monster(s) you control would be destroyed by battle or card effect, you can banish this card from your Graveyard instead.
(Super Rare)
Rating: 2 out of 5
Pretty specific, but with Monster Reborn (#35) forbidden, it can help fill the gap.
Rise of the True Dragons (SR02-EN024)
Ruins of the Divine Dragon Lords
SPELL / Continuous Spell
If a monster(s) is Special Summoned, except from the Graveyard, while you control a Level 7 or 8 Dragon-Type monster: That face-up Special Summoned monster(s) has its effects negated until the end of this turn (even if this card leaves the field). Once per turn: You can send 1 other face-up card you control to the Graveyard; Special Summon 1 "Dragon Lord Token" (Dragon-Type/LIGHT/Level 1/ATK 0/DEF 0). If this card is in your Graveyard: You can send 1 Level 7 or 8 Dragon-Type monster from your hand or face-up from your field to the Graveyard; add this card to your hand.
(Super Rare)
Rating: 1 out of 5
Asks for quite a bit just to negate 1 monster's effect and the other effect is costlier to get Tokens.
Rise of the True Dragons (SR02-EN004)
Guardian of Felgrand
LIGHT / Effect Monster / Level 4 / ATK 500 / DEF 500
(Warrior / Effect)

If this card is Normal or Special Summoned: You can equip 1 Level 7 or 8 Dragon-Type monster from your hand or Graveyard to this card. This card gains ATK and DEF equal to half the ATK and DEF of the monster equipped to it by this effect. You can Tribute 1 monster and this card, then target 1 Level 7 or 8 Dragon-Type monster in your Graveyard; Special Summon it.

Are we back to Cyberdarks?
Rise of the True Dragons (SR02-EN003)
Paladin of Felgrand
LIGHT / Effect Monster / Level 4 / ATK 1700 / DEF 300
(Warrior / Effect)

If this card is Normal or Special Summoned: You can equip 1 Level 7 or 8 Dragon-Type monster from your hand or Deck to this card. This card is unaffected by other monsters' effects, while equipped with an Equip Card. You can Tribute 1 monster and this card, then target 1 Level 7 or 8 Dragon-Type monster in your Graveyard; Special Summon it.
(Common)
Rating: 1 out of 5
You already have Darkness Metal (DUSA #68) in this Deck. Why do you need this weak substitute?
Rise of the True Dragons (SR02-EN002)
Dragon Knight of Creation
LIGHT / Effect Monster / Level 4 / ATK 1800 / DEF 600
(Dragon / Effect)

Increase this card's Level by 4 during your opponent's turn only. When this card destroys an opponent's monster by battle and sends it to the Graveyard: You can send 1 Level 7 or 8 Dragon-Type monster from your Deck to the Graveyard. You can send 1 card from your hand to the Graveyard, then target 1 Level 7 or 8 Dragon-Type monster in your Graveyard; send this card to the Graveyard, and if you do, Special Summon that monster. You can only use this effect of "Dragon Knight of Creation" once per turn.
(Super Rare)
Rating: 3 out of 5
Herald of Creation (SDRL #3) is back, and about as useful.
Rise of the True Dragons (SR02-EN001)
Divine Dragon Lord Felgrand
LIGHT / Effect Monster / Level 8 / ATK 2800 / DEF 2800
(Dragon / Effect)

If this card is Special Summoned from the Graveyard: You can target 1 monster your opponent controls or in their Graveyard; banish it, and if you do, this card gains ATK and DEF equal to the banished monster's original Level/Rank x 100. If this card destroys an opponent's monster by battle: You can target 1 Level 7 or 8 Dragon-Type monster in the Graveyard, except "Divine Dragon Lord Felgrand"; Special Summon it to your field.
(Ultra Rare)
Rating: 3 out of 5
The last effect makes it all worthwhile, and this is quite a bit better than the version from the original Deck. (SDRL #1)
 
Emperor of Darkness (SR01-EN034)
The Prime Monarch
TRAP / Continuous Trap
Once per turn: You can target 2 "Monarch" Spell/Trap Crards in your Graveyard; shuffle them into the Deck, then draw 1 card. If this card is in your Graveyard: You can banish 1 other "Monarch" Spell/Trap Card from your Graveyard; Special Summon this card in Defense Position as a Normal Monster (Fairy-Type/LIGHT/Level 5/ATK 1000/DEF 2400). (This card is NOT treated as a Trap Card.) You can only use this effect of "The Prime Monarch" once per turn.
(Common)
Rating: 1 out of 5
The true Prime Monarch would probably be either Zaborg or Mobius.
Emperor of Darkness (SR01-EN023)
Panthesism of the Monarchs
SPELL / Normal Spell
Send 1 "Monarch" Spell/Trap Card from your hand to the Graveyard; draw 2 cards. You can banish this card from your Graveyard; reveal 3 "Monarch" Spell/Trap Cards from your Deck, your opponent chooses 1 for you to add to your hand, and you shuffle the rest back into your Deck. You can only use this effect of "Pantheism of the Monarchs" once per turn.
(Super Rare)
Rating: 2 out of 5
You may not actually lose anything if you use both effects during the same turn.
Emperor of Darkness (SR01-EN015)
Garum the Storm Vassal
WIND / Effect Monster / Level 3 / ATK 800 / DEF 1000
(Winged Beast / Effect)

You can return 1 Tribute Summoned monster you control to the hand; Special Summon this card from your hand, also you cannot Special Summon monsters from the Extra Deck for the rest of this turn. If this card is Tributed for a Tribute Summon: You can add 1 monster with 800 ATK and 1000 DEF from your Deck to your hand, except "Garum the Storm Vassal". You can only use each effect of "Garum the Storm Vassal" once per turn.
(Common)
Rating: 1 out of 5
The Monarch becomes more predictable and you'll have to likely Tribute Summon it again later.
Emperor of Darkness (SR01-EN014)
Berlineth the Firestorm Vassal
FIRE / Effect Monster / Level 3 / ATK 800 / DEF 1000
(Pyro / Effect)

You can discard 1 card; Special Summon this card from your hand, also you cannot Special Summon monsters from the Extra Deck for the rest of this turn.

Neither effect is really beneficial when we have other ways to bring out better monsters or Tokens.
Emperor of Darkness (SR01-EN012)
Landrobe the Rock Vassal
EARTH / Effect Monster / Level 4 / ATK 800 / DEF 1000
(Rock / Effect)

A pebble better off in a pond.
