Striped Dragons come in a dazzling array of colors complemented by an intricate pattern of stripes. These bright colors and patterns help attract their favorite food, insects. Because their prey is so tiny, striped dragons must spend a large portion of their day eating. The color of the offspring is usually determined by the dragon’s 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.

Matteya is the only sane member of the Ring Draco Clan, therefore, she is the leader. She is in the green family. Her roommates are mostly mad scientists. She knows their secret: that they are the ones doing pranks and brewing things made of who knows what. But they are good at cleaning things up, so instead of trying to blame them, Mateya spends her time doing her job, which is flying the sky looking for nearby caves for the dragons to nest in. Matteya has a sharp eye, and is smart, so she makes a great scout.
