Default Thoughts On Dragons

Hi all,

I have a pretty wide variety of fantasy influences. The writing styles and tenets of world building behind those influences often vary wildly. As such, I can, at times, be a bit hard pressed to settle on a baseline power level when it comes to designing a setting. The differences among the material which has influenced me can often be easily seen when I sit and contrast how dragons are portrayed in various stories and games; even among games from the same brand -such as different editions of Dungeons & Dragons- how dragons compare to the world around them can vary greatly.

As a kid, I remember reading The Hobbit and being in awe at how Smaug was able battle an entire army on his own, and that was after being portrayed earlier in the novel as being clever and intelligent when speaking to Bilbo to try to discern the invisible hobbit's location. Even when Smaug does eventually die, it's only after a combination of Bard being such an excellent shot; having knowledge of a specific weak spot, and a special arrow.
