That's like saying that when you have a chocolate shell covering an ice cream cone, the ice cream cone is made out of pure chocolate.
Where do we get the measurements for the tunnel? Are you really going to believe that Ness would give us a tunnel trap to trick this dragon into, rather than one that it could turn around in?
This is a point.
Yes, which it'd still have, or the square cube law would utterly wreck this abomination against natural laws.
For the same reason a coldblooded one would; it's a comfortable place to sit down and wait for idiots to come to you.
It's magic, your understandings of biology are worse than useless, except in noting where they don't apply. Biology is different than appearance, and dragons are not creatures that care about such things.
Yes, of course. The point here is that it still has some magic.
Simple; it's not gone. Can it breathe fire? No. Can it warm itself up using the multiple options available to it, from cellular processes to innate arcane shenanigans? Yes.
Once again, this is irrelevant. Kiting is, for the purpose of this conversation, attacking something while staying out of it's attacking range so that you don't take damage.
Good, my polymorphing spell is apparently coming along quite nicely. A new more months and I shall move up from the donkey to the noble giraffe! I was unaware, however, that you make a habit of speaking to farm animals...
And nowhere did you prove such a thing. Magical creatures, such as this one, laugh at your puny comprehension of the way that they work, because it's certainly at least partially detached from biology, what with the innate fire-breathing and all.
I can't, as you say, "Chill out" because your posts are brain salsa. Perhaps you should include some brain dairy; I hear that it's good for the bones of your argument, which have so many holes in them.
Points:
This Dragon we know nothing about, save that it is completely scaled, with no imperfections (Even it's wings were scaled when it had them), is twice as tall as we are, and is many times as long. It used to breathe fire. It has not displayed any unusual levels of cunning, but it has not really had a chance to yet. Nowhere is there any evidence that it is Cold-or warm-blooded save that it had the magical ability to produce heat, which it could have used on itself (we don't know). It's scales are hard enough to not be penetrated by your average ice pick (About the sharpness of our bolts) being shot at around 40 mph, and its scales appear to resist magical freezing. It is not fast enough to catch us, but is fast enough that we have to make a special effort to avoid it's attacks.
This room is incredibly large, presumably so that the dragon could fly around in it, and has a tunnel leading up to it. We do not know the dimensions of the tunnel. The tunnel is magical, in that once we were in it the the entrance had disappeared.
This is what we know.
What we do not know is how it works. Again, this is a dragon. Their very existence spits in the face of logic, common sense, and physics. We do not know what happened to the dragon to remove it's ability to breathe fire; it could have lost the ability to project it's heat, or it could have lost all magical abilities entirely. We don't know how smart this thing is; there aren't many things in it's situation that it could be doing smarter right now, what with the loss of it's fire breath and all. And last, and definitely least (No, seriously, this is completely irrelevant), we don't know why you have such an obsession with my usage of the term kiting to describe running away from the dragon so that it doesn't hit us while hitting it with ranged attacks.
