I had an interesting discussion with a friend today on this topic, and thought it would be a fun one to share. So, which would you prefer to have? :p

ST, I was referring to it being easy because Dragon winz by miles.
Hell, you could train it to be a doctor.
Best of both worlds. Doctor Komodo Dragon.

I suppose if you took the time to train one...note that Komodo Dragon's tend to eat more children, on balance.

Did you know that Komodo Dragons carry more bacteria in their mouths than other organism? They bite their prey and then follow it for miles and miles until it dies of septicemia days later!

So I'd have a Komodo Dragon and some penicillin!

Again, a komodo doctor solves that problem.
He bites you, but being a doctor, he has to heal you too. :p

For which the Komodo Dragons of the world are probably very thankful.
If an opinion contrary to your own makes you angry, that is a sign that you are subconsciously aware of having no good reason for thinking as you do. If some one maintains that two and two are five, or that Iceland is on the equator, you feel pity rather than anger, unless you know so little of arithmetic or geography that his opinion shakes your own contrary conviction. … So whenever you find yourself getting angry about a difference of opinion, be on your guard; you will probably find, on examination, that your belief is going beyond what the evidence warrants.

Komodos are cool. I once saw a video where komodo chased down a deer and broke its neck.

Those things are scary cool.

Real question is, who would win in a one on one fight? The doctor or the dragon?

What weapons does the Doctor have? Sword-length scalpal? Lasers?
Trouble arrives when the opponents to such a system institute its extreme opposite, where individualism becomes godlike and sacrosanct, and no greater service to any other ideal (including community) is possible. In such a system rapacious greed thrives behind the guise of freedom, and the worst aspects of human nature come to the fore....

ROTFL!!!!!

I think the Doctor becomes pretty much unstoppable at that point. Only another Doctor could cancel out the prescriptions of the other.

Which means that Dr Komodo Dragon rules the world!

It has been proven beyond all reasonable doubt that the most powerful force on Wu is a bunch of messed-up Malazans with Moranth munitions.
