Frilled Dragons are smaller than most other breeds, but when threatened, they stretch out their wings and frills to appear larger. They generally do not like to fight and prefer hiding to confrontation. Frilled dragons live in small groups and often band together to scare off potential threats. Males also use their frills as a way to attract mates, with those displaying the “best” frills being more likely to breed.

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.

He is the son of the Storyweaver,

And son of the Keeper of the Cave,

So important,

But at the same time not,

Which trade must he learn,

The painful one his mother had been born to,

The one that involves communication with the spirits,

Or the life-threatening one of his father,

Which he would be bound to forever by magic,

But he must be one,

Or he may never succeed,

And the ancestral spirits may exact revenge.
