| - | '''Trogdor the Burninator''' is an S-shaped wing-a-ling [[Dragons|dragon]] with a [[beefy arm]] that originated in the email [[dragon]]. Trogdor [[Glossary#B|burninates]] the countryside, peasants, and [[Thatched-Roof Cottage|thatched-roof cottages]] of [[Peasantry]]. He sprung from the wild imagination of [[Strong Bad]] when he was asked to show his "skills of an artist."
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Trogdor quickly became more popular than [[The Brothers Chaps]] ever could have imagined, developing into one of the most recognizable figures from the [[Homestar Runner (body of work)|Homestar Runner]] body of work, both on the Internet and in the real world. According to the [[Giant Magazine Interview]], the Trogdor shirt sold in the [[store]] is the best-selling item there, even more than the [[strongbad_email.exe]] DVD. Fans even dress up as the character as seen in [[Fan Costume Commentary]] and [[More Fan Costumes]], and created some interesting [[Weekly Fanstuff|fanstuff]]. In September 2006, the [[store]] began selling a [[Store Baby Clothes|line of baby clothing]] bearing a more child-friendly image of Trogdor that sold out one day later.

| - | In his debut [[Strong Bad Email|email]], there is a heavy metal song about Trogdor with a music video drawn in pencil. According to [[dragon#Commentary Transcript|dragon's commentary]], there originally wasn't supposed to be a song in the email, but after [[Matt Chapman|Matt]] started singing it off the top of his head while making eggs, The Brothers Chaps knew they had to put it in the email. The [[Strong Bad Sings and Other Type Hits]] contains an [[Trogdor (song)|extended version]] of the song. The song is also [[Trogdor (karaoke)|featured]] in [[KaraokeFun]] on the [[strongbad_email.exe Disc Two|DVD]]. [[Homestar Runner]] is the singer and gets a score of 84 out of 100.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | In November 2006, the extended version of the Trogdor song made an appearance as a bonus song in the PlayStation 2 and Xbox 360 game [[Guitar Hero|Guitar Hero II]].
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | The goal of the [[Stand up arcade games|arcade]] game found in the [[Basement of the Brothers Strong]] (called [[TROGDOR!]]) is to squish enough peasants required to achieve burnination, while at the same time avoiding [[The Red and Blue Knights]] and the Siamese archers. The player controls the anti-hero Trogdor. The game was a fan favorite before the debut of Peasant's Quest.

| - | In the game [[Peasant's Quest]], killing the Burninator is [[Rather Dashing]]'s goal. After Trogdor burninates his [[thatched-roof cottage]], he journeys to the Trog-Cave, only to get burninated by the dragon like many before him. In this game, Trogdor's voice is an old speech synthesizer called the [[Wikipedia:Software Automatic Mouth|Software Automatic Mouth]], or S.A.M. It's revealed that Trogdor cannot be killed in this game, yet he can be in TROGDOR!.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | A [[20X6]] version of Trogdor, called [[Trogador]], was revealed at the [[NYU Talk - 1 Mar 2005|NYU Talk]], but did not appear in the Homestar Runner canon until [[Happy Trogday]] was released on the third anniversary of Trogdor's debut.

| - | | + | |
| - | According to the email [[myths & legends]], at some point the CG Dinosaur Channel created a special called "Walking With Trogdor".
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | In the email [[concert]], Strong Bad receives an email purporting to be from "Your Dragon, Trogdor", which he considered to be an impersonation.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Two of Trogdor's birthdays have been celebrated on the website. In 2006, [[Happy Trogday]] commemorated his third birthday with a fanstuff montage. However, [[Trogday 08|two years later]], Strong Bad decided to sing both an entire alphabet song and (though only after Trogdor showed up in person and forced him to) a heavy metal song about [[The S is for Sucks Dragon]] instead. He claimed that internet users had ruined Trogdor, along with zombies, pirates, ninjas and himself.
| + | |
| - | | + | |
| - | Trogdor was also the main subject of the season 1 finale of [[SBCG4AP]], [[8-Bit Is Enough]]. In it, the TROGDOR! [[Arcade Game|arcade machine]] breaks and Trogdor is released into [[Free Country, USA]], and promptly burninates [[Strong Badia]]. Driven for revenge (much like [[Rather Dashing]] in [[Peasant's Quest]]), Strong Bad sets out to kill Trogdor by enlisting the help of various other [[Videlectrix]] characters. When Strong Bad finally confronts his foe, Trogdor morphs into [[ULTIMATE TROGDOR!!!]], but is still no match for [[Ultimate Strong Bad]].
