Lord of Dragons is a eighteen-part book series written mostly by Ephraim B Smain, a popular science fiction and fantasy author who wrote the first book in the series, To Serve A Dragonlord, in 1961, when he was fifteen years old.Such is what the Lord of Dragons wiki claims. In truth, Lord of Dragons is a wiki-based parody of high fantasy novels, inspired by Penny Arcade's Epic Legends of the Heirarchs: The Elemenstor Saga wiki. It was created because Air Of Mystery and co-writer 4rcit4 wanted to write something with no established canon, whereas if they wrote in ELotHTES they would have to follow existing rules. (ELotHTES did rather kindly put up a short article about LoD.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The wiki is partly about detailing the books in the series (which parody High Fantasy tropes), Smain's life (disastrous) and the ongoing efforts to create a Film of the Book (which parodies moviemaking in general). | |

Author Appeal | |
| Lord of Dragons / int_6627695f | comment |
Author Appeal: Smain's Mary-Sue character in Lord of Dragons is Smaindur the Strong. Smain is also very, very fond of dragons in general - every single book in the series has the word 'Dragon' in it save for Emperor Supreme, which was declared non-canon. Similarly, Jeremy Irons has been Flanderized into being obsessed with dragons based on his appearance in a Spyro game and the Eragon movie. | |

ForgotICouldFly | |
| Lord of Dragons / int_84df0713 | comment |
Forgot I Could Fly: The Battle of Dragon's Field was the first battle in Dagoran's history to utilise dragons in the air; previous battles just had them 'stomp around on the ground for a bit and breathe fire'. The idea was suggested by a common soldier, who asked why the dragons weren't flying, to which the Commander replied elatedly 'oh yeah!' and then 'a-whoops!'. | |

Canon Discontinuity | |
| Lord of Dragons / int_a32334b4 | comment |
Canon Discontinuity: Several books have officially been declared discontinuity, to the point where all copies of Emperor Supreme were to be burned, save for the one in Smain's personal possession, any copies received on EBay, and the copy in the library of the Vatican (the Pope considered the novel to be satanic, despite him claiming it 'really had a cool front cover'). | |

Aerith and Bob: One dragon is named Mnemnonic, another Cecil. There's even one example in the same name: Gus Lémodỗonyn, an elf. | |

Continuity Snarl: The Dagoranian dating system is so needlessly complex, when coupled with the many examples of Series Continuity Error it's impossible to know what happened when. | |

Expy | |
| Lord of Dragons / int_e5421161 | comment |
Expy: A great deal, both in-books and in the 'real world' of people Smain knows. Smaindur the Strong is a Barbarian Hero in the vein of Conan. Oregon Buglegs is a parody of both Eragon and Richard Rahl, with elements of John Galt. Episodes from Ephraim B. Smain's life seem to paint him as part Anne McCaffrey, part Frank Herbert, and a smattering of Christopher Paolini. | |
