Wolves...they're so real world. This is a fantasy, after all.

An argument for The Red Maw could be
that he was the greatest wolf to ever live (and took out the Hound of Valinor ) while it would hardly be argued that Smaug the Magnificent was the greatest dragon to ever live (and, after all, he was taken out by one human archer). Just saying... Now, as for voting...um...(later).

Oh, dear. Canine/lupine breath or dragon breath (or Worm breath, in Grima's case). Don't care for either, so I'm bowing out of the voting. Have fun, all.

Skip Spence is quite correct. I missed his
vote because it was at the end of his post (not seperate before or after the body of the post). That means that my posted results were incorrect, since Morgoth wins on a tiebreaker.  Results shoul;d have been Morgoth-5 Grima Wormtongue-5 . So corrected final four are: Carcharoth vs. Smaug Glaurung vs. Morgoth Sorry, everyone. especially Grima fans like Legate for the error.
