Neotropical Dragons are a breed that originate in rainforests. They are fun-loving and enjoy lounging on tree branches, eating whatever fruit they find. They are also often found sunning themselves on rocks, using their large wings to soak up the rays. In the summer, males compete for mates by showing off their striped wings and gliding in spirals down the tree trunks. It is said that the larger the wings, the more likely the male will attract a suitable mate.

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.

Edgar Banana Poe is a poetaster. What this means in the Madder Jungle is highly debatable, but consensus tends to settle on a definition based on the eating (or at least licking) of someone named 'Poe'. That is not the same definition for the word as it is outside of the Madder Jungle, but because of it, Edgar has made a point of tasting all the Poes he chances across. He doesn't like it, since the name is usually given to animals (which rarely taste good to an herbivore) and prefers bananas. Still, it is his job, and the name is uncommon enough that it isn't too much work.

When not tasting Poes, Edgar takes long walks with his psyche and occasionally stays up way too late reading—especially in December.
