From Zoology.com: Here be dragons.... Can't Post

Emerging evidence indicates that dragons can no longer be dismissed as creatures of legend and fantasy, and that anthropogenic effects on the world's climate may inadvertently be paving the way for the resurgence of these beasts.

"The Corsairs of Umbar!" men shouted. "The Corsairs of Umbar! Look! The Corsairs of Umbar are coming! So Belfalas is taken, and the Ethir, and Lebennin is gone. The Cosairs are upon us! It is the last stroke of doom!"

JRRT got so much right with Smaug didn't he? [In reply to] Can't Post

'Dragons behave no differently from other ectotherms in their brumation protocols, and they will periodically awaken from their slumber and check to see whether outside conditions justify ending the torpor.'

Reign of Fire is required watching [In reply to] Can't Post

for anyone who wants to prepare for the Third Stir.

And also:
"Dragons have somehow wormed their way into the realm of fantasy..."

*slow clap*

Cool

Celebrimbor: "Pretty rings..."
Dwarves: "Pretty rings..."
Men: "Pretty rings..."
Sauron: "Mine's better."

"Ah, how ironic, the addictive qualities of Sauron’s master weapon led to its own destruction. Which just goes to show, kids - if you want two small and noble souls to succeed on a mission of dire importance... send an evil-minded beggar with them too." - Gandalf's Diaries, final par, by Ufthak.

Australia!!!!! [In reply to] Can't Post

That's just across the ditch from Nieuw Zeeland! Where we have two knights we would particularly not want to be eaten by dragons! This is most serious, gentle people! Pull up the drawbridge! Hide all those sheep! Burn all the posters featuring that Most Terrible of Calamities, for these lesser worms would take it as a sign of welcome, nay, even of open invitation!

Awake! Awake! Fear! Fire! Foes! Awake! Fire! Foes! Awake!



You have been warned.
