Your favorite fictional dragon?
- Thread starter The Artisan
- Start date
Temeraire, from Naomi Novik's series about the Napoleonic Era where dragons are commonplace and are manned by crews ala ships of the line. The series is amazing and Temeraire himself is a wonderful character - I can't recommend it enough to fans of fantasy, historical fiction, and/or seafaring novels in the Aubrey/Maturin vein.
That said, I also second the love of Lockheed from the X-Men.
Tohru from Miss Kobayashi's Dragon Maid.

Came here for these!
Couldn't think of one, then I saw Toothless. Of course. Love the movies and cartoon.
Toothless from How to Train Your Dragon
King Ghidorah, Godzilla's three headed nemesis.
Yu-Gi-Oh had some cool dragons too, the Blue Eyes White Dragon, the edgier Red Eyes Black Dragon, and Cyber Dragon are all great.
Piff the Magic Dragon obviously.

Ninian, aka Roy's real mom.
In b4 "wait, she's a dragon?! SPOILERS"
She and her twin have magic powers and weird colored hair. What exactly did you think she was?
Toothless from How to Train Your Dragon
Do you really have to specify "fictional"?
Ok, fine:
Haku from Spirited Away.
Yaaaaawwwp.

Amazing Twitch streamer and bitcoin enthusiast "mahwee", formerly Kenny "the Dragon" and now just Kenny "the pig".
Truly one of a kind.

What there's no dragons around your part of the world? How boring.
Kohryu from the Shin Megami Tensei/Persona series.
Love the Chinese Dragon design combined with the huge-ass antlers.
Probably have to go with Toothless, but...
...Temeraire is up there too! Nice to someone else who has read this series.

Ancalagon (Rushing Jaws) from the LotR universe. Dude was as big as a mountain and had the hottest flame of all dragons.
Ancalagon The Black was the largest and most powerful dragon in Middle Earth history.
For some perspective on this image:
- You can see 'normal' dragons on the right side of the image, shooting fireballs
- That blue streak is a magical flying elf ship popping a super speed u-turn (I want to say it's Elrond's dads ship but may be wrong)
- Those three flying things next to the ship are great eagles
Ancalagon was incomprehensibly massive.
First one to pop into my head is Khellendros from Dragonlance. He was a pretty cool blue dragon. Liked what Jean Raeb did with him and the others.
That's Org. He's the biggest and the bravest of heart.
Then there's Kessie, so shy but very smart.
And Zack and Wheezy they're oh so fun, cause you know two heads are better than one.
im a 25 year old male who hasnt thought about this ip in more than a dozen years. how do i remember the words to this theme.

I just think it would have been weird to title the thread "Your favorite dragon?" as if they are real things.
how long would that thread have lasted
I doubt many will know who I am talking about but Cyan Bloodbane from the Dragonlance novels. He was a right evil fucker, known more for his trickery than the traditional things dragons are known for.
Smaug close second because he's Smaug.

Vermithrax Pejorative
I was about to say, two whole pages and not a single mention of Vermithrax? You saved the Era.
Jesus, how this wasn't the first mention...Vermithrax Pejorative is in a class all by herself.Vermithrax Pejorative
Do characters with epithets including "Dragon" count?
If so, Sengoku BASARA's interpretation of Lord Uesugi Kenshin, Dragon of Echigo.

The superior Smaug, the Peter Jackson version can't hold a candle to this whiskered bit of greatness.Rankin Bass Smaug
