I love dragons, but my favorites are like the ones in the picture OP showed. Or think Bahumut from Final Fantasy VII/IX.
How do you feel about dragons?

That makes sense. Dragons really aren't that much of a match for laser-rifles, nukes or, rail-guns but aren't Dragons also supposed to be really manipulative? I mean if the Sith can live on in secret for a thousand years why couldn't a Dragon create a false empire around itself in a similar manner? Just thinking out loud. I should really read more.Zakarath said:
Chromatic dragons? Stay away!!!
Gem Dragons? Meh.
Metalic Dragons? Yes. I like them. Gold Dragons are the best!
Remember, Dragons are color coded for your convenience!

Powerful symbols even more powerful then the mightiest king. And hence feared and respected by those in power. For the dragon just has to move a claw.. and a Kingdom falls. Such is its power!
Due to its power one of the important parts is stability and wisdom. They are said not to exist.. maybe cause they don't show up in the temporal mind of the humans. Dragons simply think in Aeons not in human generations.
This makes their knowledge, their insight and their politics something beyond the sight of the humans.
Dragons are trouble to, as in those they touch not always end up well. But such is the games these creatures play. Humans simply do not see on the same level as dragons. Ancients from long ago.. many forgotten!

Zakarath said:Dragons are awesome. And yeah, I hate it when games use them as just another boss fight. They're supposed to be powerful, majestic, nigh-immortal, and above all, intelligent, with a touch of well-deserved arrogance and a bit (or more than a bit) of greed. I approve of the dragons of, say, Divinity 2 or the Kolmar series of books. I rather didn't like the ones of, for example, dragon age, where despite the name all they were were another boss fight.
And since I like and admire them, I really hate killing them
Yeah I'm kinda ninja'd here. -__-
i love dragons of all sorts, however my favorite by far are the dragons from the pern books, so cool and i love the relationship between the dragons and their riders in those books.
Dragons are lame, demons are where its at.
I prefer my fantasy-genre stuff to not be full of the lame cliches(elves, dwarves, unicorns, goblins fairies, dragons, you get the idea).
Probably why i liked diablo so much, its a fantasy game which didn't have any of that stuff, just humans, monsters, the undead and demons.

edit: also rein of fire. it was modern day dragons, in britain, which scorched our world and ate the ashes, and the plucky hero's go to kill the patriarch
I agree with OP.
If done properly, a dragon can be very cool. A rare and powerful beast.
If overdone or done tackily, a dragon embarasses me and makes me feel a bit nerdy and weird.
All I can say is - Skyrim FTW

They're all from Wales.
Also, hi Rainbow Dash. (And Rarity and Fluttershy. I see your icons too.)

I really like dragons, hell, I have a colossal red dragon D&D (not so mini) miniature sitting right next to me right now. Bought it for $70 a long time ago, but SOOOOO worth it.
Aside from ogling a plastic sculpture, I find that dragons themselves are great when they are depicted as majestic, noble, greedy from time to time, and blood thirsty when they fight. In essence, I believe a good dragon is one that has very noticeable, good human qualities, but still has that brutal animal instinct that make them the mighty beasts they really are. I also like the wings, and sometimes wonder what it would be like to have some sprouting out of my own back and flying around like that... God damn, that was a weird dream...

I've long believed Dragons to be their own unique species, and hate when people generalize them into being "reptiles" or "big lizards". There have been many people who try to "rationalize" dragons, to try to see how they "could" exist, and it's that distinction of dragons that I most enjoy.
But in honesty, I love all dragons. To me, they're a perfect creature, beautiful, powerful, deserving of immeasurable respect.
