Rosebud Dragons are a fun and social breed found most often in the spring. The petal-like feathers that grow on their sides spread their sweet and floral scent. Although they have poor eyesight, they have ribbon-like extensions that extend their olfactory abilities to help create a map of the area around them. When flying, Rosebud dragons tend to hover, using their wings to fan their scent throughout the air. A widespread breed, they go to great effort to visit as many flowery fields as possible.

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.

For many it seemed that romance was measured on a scale of physical contact. Touching hands and brushing hair were the first notch, but the very top of the bar was measured by the amount of time a couple spent sequestered away alone in their cave, giggling unpleasantly and making weird noises.

With this expectation in place, it was no surprise to anyone that the local rosebud and white dragon couple were picked on. After all, they'd been together for years, yet they still blushed like children in one another's presence and had never, so far as anyone could tell, gone more intimate than a tender kiss. Yet that love--innocent, gentle, selfless--would prove to be more enduring then any other in the whole region, the centuries slipping by in warm bliss, the lady and her prince finding far more worth in one another than could be measured by physical feelings.
