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.

An extremely skittish and fearful dragon, Allen tries his best to keep himself in the background.  He is extremely smart and practical, which some of the other dragons appreciate, coming to him for workable ideas to defend the clan.  Allen can and often is bullied or cajoled into doing things he would rather not for the dragons in the clan, but he sharply draws the line at hurting anyone he cares about.  Whenever a dragon he cares about is threatened, he will suddenly become fearless, willing to do anything to protect them from harm--including attacking cruel, powerful dragons he has no hope of defeating.
