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.

Lanatus admires himself a little too much. He is kind but vain. He tries to act cool and tries to impress the lady dragons. He often shows off by bravely fighting a strong magi dragon or messing with a giant. This usually doesn't impress the ladies, they can tell Lanatus is showing off. As a hatchling, Lanatus acted like he was grown up. His father, Bibaculus, rejected Lanatus's behavior because Bibaculus thought acting like a child was a gift of joy. Lanatus is often annoyed by his father and his mother, who are trying to help him. Deep down inside, Lanatus is sorry for his rudeness.
