Dorsal Dragons are so named because they have large fins along their backs that can be raised and lowered at will. They use these fins to regulate body temperature; they raise them to cool off when they become overheated. The bright colors on the fins double as a means of attracting mates.

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.

This Name Is Now Taken, along with her trusty sidekick, This Name Is No Longer Available, spend their time running through the forests pretending to rescue other dragons from harmless prey items, such as badgers and rabbits. The only time this is actually USEFUL is when she protects the local chickens, which are preyed upon by some dragon prey, such as foxes. Luckily for the rest of the Cave, the two don't have wings, which would make them even MORE annoying.
