Her dragons were still pups. Balerion was literally the godzilla of westeros

>dragon

while her dragons could grow more, they're considered "fully grown". In the books it's pointed out how the skulls of dragons over time became smaller and more warped due to inbreeding and the species dying out. It was a clear parallel with targaryans themselves, which also inbred (leading to madness) and were dying off. That's why balerion's skull is so gigantic compared to dany's dragons.

He's even bigger in the books. A real monster

A Wyvern is just a sub species of a Dragon. Also, it's a fictional universe created by GRRM, a Dragon can look like whatever the fuck he wants.

how does something that big even move?

>unrealistically huge for a dragon

Magic

lol

he's unrealistically huge for anything. even a mountain. Due to earth's gravity there's an actual limit to how tall mountains can get before the weight of it causes it to collapse deep underground. that's why olympus mons, the highest mountain in the solar system, is in Mars, less gravity.

So in reality, that kind of creature would just collapse unto itself on a celular level. Though being like underwater (less weight) would allow for bigger creatures.

But this is fantasy and saying something is unrealistically anything is just stupid

you realize godzilla is slow for a reason right?
fiction or not no one can take seriously something that is that big and can move fast, and whats the point of a slow moving dragon

Either magic or by having a shit ton of its body being lighter than air

>The Balerion autist in this thread

fine, not unrealistically but unbelievably even for fantasy

Yeah but how much do you think he paid in property taxes? Sure his nest could be written as a tax write-off as a sanctuary for endangered animals but it probably wasn't zoned as residential.

The real question is if supporting a dragon is deductible as some sort of endangered species charity

dinosaurs were never so big they could literally grip mountains with a hand

Your insurance rates are going to be astronomical for covering a dragon. Can that still be written off as a cost of doing business?

Garbage dog for garbage people.

Ancalagon is retarded as fuck, might as well be a rock that shoots fire, even then, it would require a dbz tier attack to kill such thing, even glaurung is way too big to work

I lost the HDD but there was a thread on Yea Forums where people shooped in other things, like TTGL over smaug, cia, all that.

Scale is accurate though if you take the silmarillion as written.

And how exactly did he killed that thing?

>that face
Not even him escaped Wotc's trannyfication. He went from a dragon to a winged-goblin.

>Ancalagon is retarded

Eh, 50/50. He was made as a weapon to fight the gods in the war of wrath, a war against the superdevil that was so devastating it sank continents and boiled oceans.

Wow, very racist.

Literally how does this thing feed itself

Your boy is pretty gay looking

Very carefully.

From the book
"Before the rising of the sun Eärendil slew Ancalagon the Black, the mightiest of the dragon-host, and cast him from the sky; and he fell upon the towers of Thangorodrim, and they were broken in his ruin."
Is that entire scene. The only other factor is that he had a silmaril, which is so magic it makes the one ring look like a Harry Potter wand

That doesn't answer what i asked though

>ser pounce
based tommen

>and he fell upon the towers of Thangorodrim, and they were broken in his ruin.
I would hope so

that part in blood and fire when balerion took aeera across the smoking sea
>Barth reported that "swellings" moved underneath the princess's skin, possibly searching for a way to escape and causing a great pain. He wrote "I pray that I shall soon forget some of the things she whispered", and that she often begged for death. It seemed to Barth as if Aerea was cooking from within. Her flesh grew darker until it resembled pork cracklings; smoke came from her mouth, nose, and her nether regions. Aerea's eyes cooked within her skull until they burst. When the princess was lowered into the tub of ice, "slimy, unspeakable things" making horrible sounds emerged from under her skin—one as long as his arm—but the "creatures of heat and fire" died from the cold of the ice

Dragons continuously grow. Balerion was fucking massive. Danys dragons are still young

he also had a spaceship

oh god he's one of those guys that puts arms on dragons so that their wings can't work

There's literally not enough sky for it to fly

Doesn't change the fact that it had wings

said "no animal has ever had both arms and wings," which is simply false
If you mean something different, then say what you mean

>bending the knee to france

HA!

>Icarosaurus
i mean what i said, no animal has ever had arms and wings.

I was a different user I was just answering your “what is” questions.
Yes animals have existed with arms and wings (although I’d still argue lizards don’t have wings just loose anterior skin)

A giraffe is as tall or taller than most dinosaurs.

balerion is confirmed bigger than drogon, not smaug.
Balerion's head is about twice as large as Cersei, who's 5 foot five. That means his head is about 10 feet 10 inches, but lets just round up and say 11 feet. His head is about 2.5 times long as her height based on pic related, so roughly 13 feet 7 inches Movie smaug's head is 12 feet, and about 21 feet long
His wingspan is also about 190 meters. Dude's massive

That said, book smaug is much smaller, and I believe book balerion is larger than show one, so I suppose you're right in that regard.

Nobody knows how to breed dragons. It's a mystery

And just for reference, Patagium are the same things bats, Pterosaurs, some birds and some gliding lizards have
So I suppose if you think bats have wings, then yes, so do flying squirrels

Surely Bran knows

Have Bran Warg them and then Bran dragon can lay the eggs.

Not at that point. Ancalagong was a Super Weapon used to fight against literal Gods as a last resort and he was only slain when Elronds dad flying a magic boat started throwing DBZ attacks at him for a whole day which they were capable of since it was 12 literal gods, their army of lesser gods, super elves, men, ents, dwarves, Giant Eagles, and all other fair creatures fighting the armies of hell lead by balrogs and evil lesser gods riding dragons. Which sunk a continent the fighting was so violent and destructive.

Natural Laws mean little when angels show up on earth and start fighting the Devil.

In the books, Bran has a nut allergy that nearly killed him as a child. Unfortunately, Daenerys loves to feed the dragons nuts, so he can't warg into her dragons or he'll have a panic attack. It's a pretty huge plot point, and it makes the showrunners look like complete fucking retards when they overlook it

George will NEVER finish the books hes a hack and a thief he can't wrap up all the loose ends and give them a satisfactory ending
Seriously if he were to end it the ending would be the wheel of pain iteration we've all seen a million times and the world would be destroyed only to be reborn anew
"magic" would be the gods/COTF trying to break the cycle
There I wrote a better ending than D&D

>Dragons continuously grow.
No they don't. They're born adults in dwarf fortress.

>There I wrote a better ending than D&D
is this suppose to mean anything

Yeah no shit, that's why I'm frustrated. The books weren't ever really amazing, but I still liked them, and I really enjoyed A World of Ice and Fire.

Wait what? Why would bran having an allergy to something affect him when he is warging in another host body? The host body he is warging wouldnt have the same allergy as him.

No vertebrate has ever had arms and separate wings. Gliders don’t have wings, they have flap gliders. Sharovipteryx had gliders on its legs. But also didn’t had wings

No but it makes me feel better
Would be cool if the gods cultivate the world like a farmer cultivates his crops then harvests them to sustain himself and the other gods then just do it over again
Kind like mass effect 3 but not shit

Yeah, but his near death experience was very traumatic, and they're afraid he'll sperg out and wreck everyone if he turns into a dragon and there's a residual smell or taste of nuts. It's all explained very well and in depth in the books, but sadly the show lacks that depth

>Gliders don’t have wings, they have flap gliders
Flap gliders isn't a biological term

In an age where literal gods, archangels and the satan figure are fighting you still believe natural laws work. Shit we’ve seen supposed laws of our universe start to act weird next to black holes. Holy fuck you need to wash out your mouth with buckshot

Yeah but a billion lions would kill it zombie style.

10/10

We know stories always tell a little more, but they say Balerion could eat a mammoth in one bite

I want a magic flying boat

In my show klignor, Slayer of worlds, king of the dragons is so big he could eat tengen toppa gurren lagann

Gliding membranes are not wings.

what was ancalagon's tax policy

A real scorcher that's for sure

>mammoth
Aurochs*

fucking retarded, sorry dude

Many lizards continue to grow at lower rates even after they've reached adulthood. Look up the outrage over the baby t-rex fossils on ebay.

Bran is looking too far into the past and didn't know Cersei and Euron had scorpions. Word must not have gotten around either.

He must have also missed Meraxe's death.

Saddles on any beast should be common sense. Armor, though, Dany should have had smithed before sailing south, having seen Drogon injured previously. Don't put this fuckup on Bran.

Which is why bats, and birds wings have Patagium as well, right? Even if we consider wings to be different, that raises the question of what differentiates the two? Segmentation? Some Gliding lizards wings are segmented

Reliable generation of lift

Ghidorah would like to have a word with all these Dragons.

Which is why we say manmade gliders have wings, right? Despite being gliders?

They have aerofoils that do not generate enough lift to overcome gravity.

Ghidorah is a kaiju

Still a Dragon though, a Planet destroying one

>aerofoils
>An airfoil (American English) or aerofoil (British English) is the cross-sectional shape of a wing, blade (of a propeller, rotor, or turbine), or sail (as seen in cross-section).

Aslan would let himself die only to rise again and banish the serpent back to hell.

>Still a Dragon though
no, Ghidorah is a kaiju

the saddle messes with me the most. I'd be shitting bricks if I just had to hold on while flying in the air.

I chuckled

You’ll understand when you’re older

But he is still designed like a Dragon and has powers similar to alot of Dragons in folklore, this is retarded

still a kaiju and not a dragon. I don't make the rules.

Well in the new movie he is technically a titan, and thats the new Ghidorah a super storm causing three headed Dragon
