Thank you all for coming by and nominating the dragon who you think should take home this year’s Silmaril Award for Most Magnificent Dragon!
But now it’s time to vote!
Here are the top five! As many of you will notice, these dragons are no strangers to these awards. Most having been nominated several times already and have made it into the finalist round, but have yet to take home an award. And then we have our beloved Gymn, who I believe (after careful scouring of the archives) this is his first appearance here. Very excited for the line up this year!
Shardas from Dragon Slippers
From Wiki:
Shardas is a male dragon with gold scales, claws and wings, blue eyes, sapphire horns, and a barbed tail tip. He hoards stained glass windows and introduces the main character to the world of dragons.
Vollys from The Two Princesses of Bamarre
Vollys is a female dragon that captures one of the princesses on a mission to save her sister. The dragon forces her to entertain her or be eaten.
Julio from the Afterverse
Also known as Julio Rafael Lorenzo Velazquez Narvaez Sandoval Castillo Aquino
A youngish dragon according to dragon years. He joins the main characters on their adventures but he also has a mischievous side to him. Evident in his nomination for the 2020 Most Mischievous Imp award.
Gymn from the Dragonkeeper chronicles
A green-scaled minor dragon who can heal wounds and sicknesses, spit into the eyes of his enemies, and grows in his courage.
