I swear medium is the lizard from Divinity Original Sin 2

u/RoryRose2 dragin 14d ago

i had the same thought and came down to say this!

if it's not a lizard they've gotta at least be inspired

u/Ok-Resource-3232 Spyro 14d ago

Oh gods, that hip swing when they are walking...

u/Azir_Novo 14d ago

Glad I'm not the only one who thought this lol

12

u/RadicalZombie 14d ago

been playing a ton of it lately and was thinking the same

9

u/Fishfoe25 14d ago

Hit the nail on the head - the artist is a huge DOS2 fan, posts a lot of art about it. Dabbles in quite a lot of Faneposting.

u/Mackerdoni 14d ago

xl is anemone from wof so i wouldnt doubt other references

8

u/Boring-Willow-5887 14d ago

Finally found a wof fan

u/jsponenberg05 Falkor 15d ago

Somewhere between medium and extra large, preferably large is possible.

17

u/Imagine_TryingYT Kobold 14d ago edited 14d ago

I'm just wondering if theres a size beyond extra large and then one more beyond that.

That would make me happy

6

u/jsponenberg05 Falkor 14d ago

Well, there may be collosal sized dragons that may be a rare sight but not outside the realm of possibility for dragons.

8

u/Imagine_TryingYT Kobold 14d ago

I just wanna be the kobold to a colossal sized dragon and help take care of them like a big scaley house cat.

Literal life goals.

u/Petrichor-33 15d ago

Div lizard?

17

u/Mr_Ultimite 15d ago

I like my dragon the same way I like my sushi

Varied as hell and really depends on if I like the flavor more than the looks.

Yay, dragons of various shapes and sizes!! 💞🐉🐉🐉✨💖‼️‼️

17

u/FrontIndividual4188 15d ago

Medium-Large

Quadrupedal. Approximately 8-9 feet in length from chest to tail. 6-7 feet in height. (Don't say it)

2

u/Flair258 14d ago

so huge shark sized?

14

u/Lagarto_8000 a lizard that thinks it can pretend to be a dragon 15d ago

Between medium and extra large is acceptable

11

u/Nekrial 14d ago

I am not really concerned with the size I am just wondering how do I train it?

9

u/Loklin101 14d ago

I wish I knew how to train my dragon.

5

u/Ace_the_Sergal 14d ago

Boy, if only they had a movie about it. Training dragons would be so much easier.

2

u/Boring-Willow-5887 14d ago

Say that again

11

u/ToastySkinks Spyro 15d ago

Small so I can chuck them at my enemies imagine a toddler-sized gecko if you will. I expect at that size they’d be a natural chaos gremlin.

11

u/CapitainCutlet 15d ago

Anywhere from "large building" to "small island" sized. I want my Dragons ludicrously large.

Smaller Dragons can be really cool too, but I just have a preference for big ones.

Like this handsome fella right here, drawn by yours truly:

5

u/Winged-Wyrm Amphiptere 14d ago

Took me some time to realize that that aircraft carrier was in fact not a tiny surfboard. That's a big derg; nicely drawn!

2

u/Flair258 14d ago

whats up with his arms/front legs?

2

u/CapitainCutlet 14d ago

Tried to draw him lying down/loafing in the water, but it didn't turn out quite right

2

u/Flair258 14d ago

the problem is i have no idea whats going on with the anatomy of the arms

best dragon size

9

u/NoctustheOwl55 Hydra 14d ago

Polymorphing.

7

u/Stellar_Wings 15d ago

Large, so about Bear to Horse sized.

Big enough to look like a proper dragon and be ridable but still small enough that they can safely interact with humans and be indoors.

7

u/Millie218 Draconic (otherkind) 14d ago

Are my eyes deceiving me ? Is that a seawing from WOF :O ?

u/Savallator 15d ago

Cuddle Sized. That means slightly smaller than medium. And of course a Wyvern.

u/4N0nBlondes 14d ago

Answer: D. All of the above.

u/Flair258 14d ago

is that a seawing

u/thrownawaz092 Discipline of Paul 15d ago

Extra large derg ate the large derg.

5

u/Yohat20 14d ago

Omg wait is that Tsunami?

4

u/ReyDeleyk Water derg 15d ago

Im a dragon made of water, depending on how much water is available i can be as small as a tiny kobold all the way to kaiju city size if there is an ocean nearby.

4

u/Tiredasscatnal Shadow HighSky 15d ago

…

Yes.

4

u/RMS_Snowman 14d ago

Depends on how large medium is. If it's like 8-10 feet that's enough for me.

4

u/mrredpanda36 Rock drake (from Ark) 13d ago

Large. Not extra, just large. Like, about the size of ark's wyverns and drake.

3

u/Parrot_does_Art 15d ago

Medium-ish

u/tanoinfinity Tintaglia 15d ago

Small or Tiny :3

u/Aegillade 15d ago

The bigger the better.

5

u/Zitzle 14d ago

Like 8 or 9 sizes above extra large

5

u/WizardOfTheLawl 14d ago

so bigger than galaxies?

2

u/Zitzle 14d ago

Way bigger

2

u/Teekeks 14d ago

The universe is just a dragon. Its expanding bc the dragon is still growing

2

u/JeskoTheDragon 14d ago

ok but I've genuinely played with this idea as someone who has expertise in dragon deities/cosmic horrors

Small or extra large.

u/dragon_tail_69 15d ago

wof fan spotted

2

u/OmegaRuby003 15d ago

Small and wyvern shaped. Their body structure would probably give them similar behaviors to bats, which would mean they hang on and cuddle often :3

2

u/Dependent-Swing-5492 Blitz the Wyvern of theatrics and whimsy 15d ago

Ok homestuck divinity and WoF

2

u/Sir_Pendrin 15d ago

Depends on what I want to be doing with my dragon. There are times I’d like to be all of these sizes.

u/StarglowTheDragon 🐉🌙⭐️Arcana (goddess of all dragons)⭐️🌙🐉 14d ago

Small for cuddles.
Medium just to hang out with.
Extra large for transportation and just cool looking.

But all 3 for cuddles too.

2

u/Zaeil_Xane12164 14d ago

Ideally I’d love to see more worlds like HTTYD where Dragons are super common and just integrated entirely into the ecosystems of the world. Some are small little scavengers, some are colossal recluses, and some fit that right-in-between mark.

2

u/Magnus_foringur Saphira 14d ago

Yes to all three, preferably if they remain quadrupedal at all times.

2

u/Arxl 14d ago

All sized, biped, quadruped, whatever lol

2

u/ComfortHot92 14d ago

Extra Large, or Medium, formatted in either way (anthro or quad), would make me happy

2

u/Artysmartsy Dragon demon 14d ago

So we got the little baby

Dragonborn

And the big baby "wah"

At least 40 ft

2

u/Far-Ask-9194 12d ago

Depends what size does my dragon want me?

2

u/Goldskull298 11d ago

There is friend size (Small), then there is Waifu size (Medium), and then there is KICK ASS Size (Extra Large), I like em all, medium is preferred

u/Hi9054667 11d ago

One extra large for me ... The cuddle would be really cool 🥰

u/4ElementalwolfNW4 15d ago

Extra large! Then I can be held in their talons with ease.

1

u/THE_LEGO_FURRY 15d ago

Xl but medium size if you catch my drift :3

u/M-FutureLord Ember-Scale 15d ago

u/ashen_queen13 15d ago

Still remembering the wild emotional rollercoaster of the sunday school teacher for our small group of freshmen getting us each a gift and homegirl somehow clocked me as part of the homestuck fandom and got me a lil blue scalemate plush (i still have him, his name is Fred)

u/Interesting_Sea_1861 Corpse-Coat Dragon Vaal Hazak 15d ago

By 'extra large', you mean 'below average'? Asking for my friend Zorah Magdaros.

1

u/drgn2009 Vysha 15d ago

Extra Large (small-house sized.)

1

u/Emotional-Effort-967 15d ago

Second one looks like a lizard from Divinity

Either way, somewhere between medium and large

u/Agitated-Soil-1618 15d ago

All sizes are good. But chubby is best

1

u/DarkAlchamist 15d ago

Extra large. It provides better transportation, protection, and cuddles than the others

1

u/Sea_Turtle_04 15d ago

Medium, or extra large. Large is a nice halfway point

1

u/SinkPitiful1396 Too many OCs to name 15d ago

u/L1zzy99 15d ago

Extra large

1

u/Celestial_Scythe Ðragøn 15d ago

Medium-Large. Large enough for riding but not Temeraire or Fourth Wing size.

Around a clydesdale horse size perhaps?

1

u/Wildcard994 15d ago

Personally, I'm a "medium but can transform into extra large."

1

u/UltiUSA Päkrätá (Mūñkskak) 15d ago

Big

1

u/HabitOptimal1412 14d ago

Well, why settle for one when you can have every size? Lucy uses her ability to change shape for all kinds of things.

If she needs to intimidate a group of idiots who didn't get the message from an artillery barrage, she can go Kaiju sized. If she wants to be hugged, she can be smol enough for the perfect squeeze. She can be in her humanoid form when she's on the ship, or she can be the size of a car when she wants to inconvenience someone by sleeping in their parking spot.

Although I personally prefer her as a medium sized dragon. The best size for her to give hugs, really.

In the world of r/dragondom, dragons that come in all sort of sizes, from building-sized great dragons like Konigthar, medium-to-large lesser dragons like Rhaegal, to smaller dragonkin races like dragonborn, kobold, and dragonewt.
