don’t you mean Glaurung

And that’s BAD!?  
Dude, that’s awesome!

what the fuck is wrong with being a fire breathing dinosaur.

except for the fact that dinosaurs are AWESOME

Oh, and also undead T-Rex skeletons exist in medieval fantasy games, so expect those. ;)

Some people need to remember that Wingless Dragons exist in mythology and they can be cool as well.

But Spike, dinosaurs are awesome!

 
ME GRIMLOCK NO SEE PROBLEM….

I wish I were a fire-breathing dinosaur

Yes, Spike, it’s OK for you to suddenly get wings but not Twilight. Now, go and write a letter about this grief to either of the Princesses you have a close relationship with, using your fire to somehow transport letters instead of burning them to a crisp. Maybe you can have another A BATH IN LIQUID LAVA after that to help you relax from your existentialist anxiety. Maybe even CRUSH DIAMONDS, the hardest substances known, with YOUR BARE TEETH as a snack.

Yes.

…i don’t see the problem.

Maybe dragons earn their wings, like cutie marks?

@Randomosaur  
that’s unbelievably badass

Just look in creationist books.  
 
According to some creationists, some dinosaurs breathed fire and were responsible for dragon legends.

Spike, you live in a (!#$!# library. Go to the fantasy/scifi section and check out Tolkien. Not “The Hobbit.” “The Silmarillion.”
 
The first dragons, starting with Glaurung, the father of all dragons, were flightless. They were still immensely powerful. Glaurung could even control the minds of others. These early dragons were also gifted with fire hot enough to melt Rings (all but the One Ring). Although early flighted dragons like Ancalagon were also gifted with that extremely hot fire, their descendants became progressively weaker and colder, some not even being able to breathe fire.
 
Now, it was also stated that dragons took time to mature before they became powerful. You aren’t that old, which is why you’re still weak. However, as a wingless dragon, you are closer to the basal stock with intense fire. When you do mature, there’s a realistic chance you’ll be far more powerful than the flighted cretins you hung around with in the lava. So chin up.

How is a fire-breathing dinosaur not the coolest thing in the universe?

@Randomosaur  
Still every bit as awesome.

Not gonna make another acid comment about wings…

…Hey Spike, wanna trade?

Since Spike is neither a dragon nor a dinosaur, I must conclude that he is a fire-breathing lizard.

still better than being a boring hairless ape
