The terrible maiden-eating dragon of Kraków was slain by the Polish peasant Skuba, who tricked it into eating sulfur and drinking water, which caused its belly to explode. This establishes a recurring pattern within Western European mythology and literature vis a vis dragons’ primary weak spot.

Legolas’s age is nowhere specified but he is much older than Aragorn and Gimli. He is not inferior to Aragorn. Tolkien never gave Legolas a specific age, but he’s older than 500.

No, Galadriel is not more powerful than Saruman or Gandalf for that matter. However, unlike Galadriel, Saruman and Gandalf are forbidden by the Valar from using their power in direct confrontation with Sauron.

Tolkien describes Smaug as a reddish-gold dragon with big bat-like wings and sharp teeth and claws. On his belly (which everybody knows is usually a dragon’s weak spot), he’s got a crusty coating of old treasure that’s stuck to him like an extra set of scales. Long story short, Smaug is huge, even by dragon standards.

10 Smaug is Not The Strongest Dragon Undeniably, Smaug is the Greatest Dragon left in Middle Earth during the Third Age. Yet he is not the strongest to have existed previously. When faced with defeat, Morgoth unleashed his last and greatest weapon in the form of winged fire drakes, led by Ancalagon.
