Dark green dragons, once they mature, appear to become an entirely different species. However, this isn’t true. Rather, they burrow underground and get nutrients from their vines. These vines are sometimes referred to as Dragon Grass. These dragons are very violent, and will use their vines to capture, kill, and eat anything that moves, as well as nearby plants. Luckily, their range is limited and they cannot use magic. Dark green dragons tend to be easy to spot since they usually kill all plants around them and thus are usually surrounded by a large clearing.

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.

Rooterman is a dark and sinister fellow. He has claimed a piece of land just outside the cave entrance. From this dark, dappled spot he can see all who enter and exit. He uses his tangle of vines to trip unsuspecting adult dragons, sneering and laughing as they attempt to free themselves. The vines also snare mints, wayward hatchlings, and chickens for snacking upon—which he does with great smacking, belching, and licking of lips. Unbeknownst to all, his vine tendrils are long enough to steal unattended eggs and place them in the abandoned pile. Whenever he does this a deep and evil chortle can be heard throughout the realm, sending shivers through even the bravest of dragons.
