I'm wrong about SO MANY THINGS. I can't imagine being otherwise. Talk about dull!
Well, at least where I'm from, dragons are typically clever - and by that I mean around the same intelligence of human beings. Some are smarter, some are not. You can reason with a great many dragons - or at least you could, once upon a time. The King of the Gods declared war on the dragons and nearly killed all of them, save the ones that defected to his side. So... chances are, the dragons you meet in my world are either a) traitors to their kind, which... bleh to be honest, or b) probably hate your guts because their entire family was massacred. There are a few c) dragons that are tired of everyone's shit but not particularly violent, but they're few and far between. I prefer saying hello to every dragon I meet and hope I don't get walloped!
