Smaug (/smaÊÉ¡/) is a fictional dragon and the main antagonist in J. R. R. Tolkien 's 1937 novel The Hobbit. He was a fearsome dragon who invaded the Dwarf kingdom of Erebor 150 years prior to the events described in the novel. A group of 13 Dwarves mounted a quest to take the kingdom back, aided by the wizard Gandalf and the Hobbit Bilbo Baggins.
The Hobbit tells the story of how Bilbo finds the One Ring of the Dark Lord. Originally, the ring meant nothing; it was just a magic ring. It was only after Tolkien's publishers asked him for a sequel that he gave significance to the ring and built an entire 1000+ page novel around it.
