Description
I size chart I created back in 2019 for InsurgenceOfDragons - it's a rough guide for how to translate the 'x tonnes' the Temeraire books give for each dragon breed into an actual height/length. These are obviously just my personal take on it and were based on what the other members had gone with for their characters, so if this doesn't match with how large you think they are, that's absolutely fine and feel free to ignore this! You're welcome to use this for anything Temeraire-related so long as you provide a link back to this!

If you'd like to see a graph where I took the wingspan/lengths that Naomi Novik provided for a couple breeds and make a visualization for it, you can see it here .

Human is 6ft. The horse is based on a Thoroughbred.

Blue dragons are lightweights. First is 1 ton, the second is 5 tonnes, and the third is 9 tonnes.
Purple dragons are middleweights. First is 10 tonnes, second in 14/15 tonnes, and the third is 18 tonnes.
Red dragons are heavyweights. First is 20 tonnes. Second is 25 tonnes. The third is 50 tonnes, the largest possible size, reached (so far) by only the most gargantuan of Regal Coppers.

Each square equals 3.7 feet!
