Holiday dragons are a very mysterious breed. They are only seen during winter, and even then it is hard to catch a glimpse of one. They are responsible for the general cheer that spreads during the holidays. In essence, they are the “Spirits of Winter.”

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.

Holly is generally good-natured and friendly as everyone knows the spirit of Christmas past should be. He often states that in his younger years he had an IQ of 6000 and sighs, because age clearly has taken his toll but in spite (or maybe because) of that he is well-liked in his clan especially with the hatchlings and when he speaks of days gone by none of the others point out the obvious flaws in his tales.

He spent the whole last Christmas season bowing to everyone he met and no one had the heart to tell him that he had terribly misunderstood something.
