Draugluin stands no chance.
++Smaug This one was a no-brainer. Smaug! Smaug! Hail Smaug, the Chiefest and Greatest of Calamities!

Well for a dragon Smaug is an okay chap... But my general opinion on dragons is no secret.
++Draugluin I'm not even that fond of wolves, but werewolves are certainly better than some dragons.

++Smaug
Excellent and witty repartee with Bilbo. The old Draugr? Not much more than snarling. I'll take acerbic dialogue over growls any day.

Witty, Intelligent, powerful. Just a little on the arrogant side.

Well, it seems Fate has given me an omen. Just as I read the latest round, this quote appeared at the top of the webpage:

++Smaug the Smug
I love his wit and his vanity. So much more personal and interesting than any other dragon by Tolkien (or probably by any other author either). PS. I seem to belong to a minority since I find dragons nor awesome nor boring, but just plain "nice" or "ok"...

Hate to pile on against old Drauglin
but Smaug's acerbic wit gives him the edge. + + Smaug
