User blog:Thundrtri/Secret battle of Season 2: Smaug VS The Dragonborn



In the fantasy matchup of a lifetime, two of fiction's greatest fighters go head to head in a clash to the deat. Smaug the fiery dragon who came roaring through the skies and took the Dwarf castle in the mountains and their treasures within it. 'VERSUS. Dovahkiin' the Dragonborn and hero of Skyrim who is the greatest hero and dragon slayer who took down the Alduin the dragon lord. WHO, IS, DEADLIEST!!??







Dovahkiin
Saviour of the frozen homeland of the Nords, the mighty Dovahkiin was the hero of Skyrim who pushed back the vile world-eating Dragon God Alduin and his minions. Also known as Dragonborn and Prisoner, the Hero of Skyrim was originally captured by the Imperials during an attack against the rebel Stormcloak forces. Taken for an attempt to cross the Cyrodiil-Skyrim border, the Dovahkiin was taken alongside war criminals like Ulfric Stormcloak himself, before being taken to the chopping block for his "crimes" in Helgen. Fortunatly, the Dragonborn's execution was stayed when the Dragons made their triumphant return to Skyrim, with Alduin himself arriving to try and kill the Dovahkiin before it's true potential could be unleashed. Alduin's attack of Helgen destroyed the entire city, burning it down and killing nearly everyone Imperial or Stormcloak alike, but with the aid of an ally, the Dovahkiin escaped the city unharmed.

Choosing to warn the people of Whiterun about the Dragon, the Dragonborn became a friend to the local Jarl, Balgruuf the Greater, and was the true power of it's heritage was revealed when the Jarl's men allied with the Dovahkiin to kill a Dragon outside the city. The Dovahkiin absorbed the soul of it's foe, and the Greybeards summoned the hero to the peak of their mountain- the Throat of the World. Visiting the secretive monks, the Dragonborn learned that they alone held the power to stop Alduin, by consuming the souls of the dragons they kill. The Greybeards also taught the Dragonborn the Way of the Voice, learning ancient Thu'ums, or Shouts, which allowed the Dovahkiin to change the battlefield in their favor, whether with a shout of FUS RO DAH to throw enemies away or to summon a massive storm.

After a long journey, the Dovahkiin was able to ally with ancient heroes of the past in the ancient halls of the Nordic Afterlife- Sovngarde. The four warriors fought the ancient world-destroyer to a stand still, and eventually the Dovahkiin was able to overcome and kill Alduin- draining his very soul and essence, not even leaving a skeleton remaining in it's wake. The Dovahkiin had made many allies and enemies in the long quest, but the death of Alduin ended the dragon threat, and finally Skyrim could rest easy thanks to the heroic efforts of their mightiest hero. In their tounge, he was Dovahkiin...Dragonborn!

Smaug


One of the last of the great Fire Drakes of Middle-Earth, the dragon known as Smaug was a horrifying sight for the free peoples who were unfortunate enough to encounter his fearsome visage. Infamous, not only for his cruelty and strength, but for his cunning and creative mind, Smaug often made careful plans that would only result in his personal gain, eventually culminating in his destructive invasion of the Misty Mountains, killing many of the Dwarves who lived there and stealing their countless treasures from them, making their mountain halls his home.

Smaug spent most of his days after this invasion resting, basking in his newly begotten treasures. So long did he lay upon his bed of jewels and coins, the riches began to stick to his stomach- the soft, vulnerable area that was exploited to kill many of his kind. This armor was incredibly effective, allowing him to be neigh unstoppable when he did chose to take to the skies and terrorize the locals, including the Men of Dale.

Smaug's many years of terrorizing was finally ended when a Hobbit, Bilbo Baggins, joined a group of Dwarf survivors of his attack on the Misty Mountains, including prince Thorin Oakenshield, and guided by Gandalf. This group planned to take back the mountain, and their efforts awoke the fury of Smaug, who launched an attack on the nearby Laketown, where Bard the Bowman took advantage of a small gap in Smaug's armor, shooting a magic black arrow into the Dragon's chest. Left mad, but still fighting, the villagers mounted an attack on the fallen dragon, and while many died, Smaug eventually fell to another strike to the chest.

X-Factors
Smaug/Dragonborn

Intelligence
30/76

Smaug may be a dragon, but he definetly isn't stupid. He protected the treasure and knew how to do it. Granted, this doesn't exhibit very great intelligence, but still, for a dragon, he's intelligent. Dovahkiin on the other hand is a human, capable of learning and applyling concepts. He is a skilled warrior and is very intelligent.



Speed
91/81

Smaug gets this without too much trouble. He's got more muscle mass and has the ability to fly, this gives him an edge right off the bat making him able to go into the sky and come down on the Dragonborn at a faster rate.



Strength
97/80

Again, Smaug brings the superior muscle mass to the fight. This is a big factor. He has more muscle making him able to grip onto the dragonborn without a risk of him escaping. He's a dragon, so his greater size also proves very valuable.



Experience
65/91

<p style="text-align:center;">Smaug has spent most of his time in a castle guarding his gold. The Dragonborn on the other hand, has been out conquering the dragon lord Alduin and fighting. Smaug's been sleeping, while Dovahkiin's been fighting...simple as that.
