Two dragons, and one is from the Minor Works as well.

So sad that you would rather keep Smaug, a rather bland dragon character, too sterotypical, instead of keeping a rather fascinating dragon with an unusual personality.

C'mon Morm! Give us some details about Chrysophylax's personality and place in Tolkien all-star survivor -list! It's too easy to say that Smaug is stereotypical character if Smaug is one of the monuments who has created that stereotype! It's like you would say that the Fellowship of the LotR is too stereotypical within the fantasy-genre...

Okay
  1. Instead of merely tending his horde he goes out on an adventure
  2. He is clever and cunning but in a way that to me was different than most dragons
  3. He's not such a massive and formidable foe that he is seen as insurmountable yet in the end he lives
  4. He negotiated with Farmer Giles and manuevered his way out instead of simply killing him

All in all he is unlike any dragon I have ever known and much more interesting than anyone left...*lousy Hama evicters*
