The Hobbit Trilogy Statue Smaug the Magnificent 20 cm

Statues Hobbit, The

The Great Worms, bred in earlier times to be weapons in the war for Middle-earth, were enormous serpentine creatures, wrapped in scaly hides and possessed of evil intelligence. Within combined the cunning of thinking beings and the ferocity of wild animals.

Long horns, bladed claws and evil stomachs of countless teeth they had. The dragons' sharp, slitted eyes were ever alert, their sense of smell acute, and their long bodies grew to a size unmatched by any other creature that could walk the earth. Some were winged, able to take to the sky and travel great distances like the wind. Others burned with burning anger within, spewing fire and death from their outstretched jaws at will. And in some such abilities were paired to terrifying effect…

In the closing years of the Third Age, only a few remained, mostly besieged in the scorched lands of the withered heath, far to the north and wedged between the spurred arms of the Gray Mountains. Great was their hunger and a desire for violence always burned in their bellies. When word of the riches of Erebor reached their ears, the greatest of the Fire Dragons that still lived in Middle-earth took to their wings and sped south. His name was Smaug; a huge gold and red monster whose evil was matched only by his pride.

His coming was like a hurricane of fire; the cities of Dale and Erebor quickly fall to his irresistible advance; countless dwarves and men consumed in his flames or torn apart by tooth and claw. Scarcely had the inhabitants realized what calamity befell them when they were dead or displaced. Then the Great Dragon, who called himself Magnificent, seized the riches of the Lonely Mountain and took up his abode to lie coiled upon his treasure. After this Erebor became a terrible place, and all around the lands became barren, parched, and plundered; Desolation of Smaug.
