Holiday dragons are a very mysterious breed. They are only seen during winter, and even then it is hard to catch a glimpse of one. They are responsible for the general cheer that spreads during the holidays. In essence, they are the “Spirits of Winter.”

Dragons are highly-intelligent reptilian creatures that—from a human perspective, at least—appear to live forever. Many different varieties of dragon exist, each with their own unique qualities, habitats, and behavior. Adolescence in dragons is usually marked by the growth of a hatchling’s wings, although not all breeds of dragons grow wings and some breeds have other traits that indicate the beginning of maturation. In Galsreim, dragons and humans coexist peacefully.

Tis is a bit baffled by his brother Bizz's tendency to make a holiday out of everything. There are enough serious issues to be addressed through special days but somehow most dragons treat his "Inbred-Awareness-Month" or his "Neglection-Remembrance-Day" as nothing more and nothing less than Bizz's "Silly-Hat-Summer-Solstice". Tis knows that he has far more serious concerns, but he gets less respect than Biz which has led to some resentment on his part.
