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.

Sayssen and Lifderw are brothers though not related by blood. They are poets, visionaries, idealists. They see beyond the mortal realm, they live in words, they have a purpose. Every day, they see something new, something beautiful, and it changes them forever. They are in constant flux, an ever-shifting vortex of blinding hope and joy and a kind of desperate yearning for new knowledge, new experiences, new wonderful stunning things. They live with stars always in their eyes and a constant willingness to be dazzled and amazed.
