If this character was part of a circus might his act involve juggling large boulders and occasionally tossing them into the audience to great dismay?

@Lail is it indeed Smaug! Thorin calls him a "most specially greedy, strong, and wicked worm" at the party, and Smaug boasts to Bilbo later that "now I am old and strong, strong, strong"!
For completeness's sake:
No, I think it unlikely that Smaug would juggle boulders when breathing fire is so much more impressive, although I suppose he probably could.
No, Smaug is not a ruler, though Bard does refer to him as "the only king under the Mountain that we have ever known".
No, Smaug is not from Lake-town.
No, Smaug is not Bolg.

Yes, though it is not stated, people presumably live here year-round.
It is not known for sure, but I would say this place was not built by men. (Sorry, Elvh.)
