Feisty and energetic, Whiptail Dragons pride themselves on their speed and agility. It is not unusual to see several whiptails racing each other. Though fragile, they can easily evade attacks with their superior speed, and often use their long tails as a weapon, giving rise to their name.

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.

Windlash Song is the twenty eighth dragon of the Natashina clan, and the son of Dance and Azure. He is very clever and nimble flier, who has some good traits of his parents. Song has his Dance's sharp wit and racing skills, and does not seem to be the prankster his father is. He also inherited Azure's kindness and maneuvering skills, with her sense of clan loyalty. Unfortunately, he is also easily distracted (like his father), has little sense of direction (like his mother,) and constantly ends up lost. Azure generally knows where to find the overeager dragon and brings him home. When Song returns to the cave, he always gives collected treasure for Ember's horde. He also enjoys spending time with Muse of the Spirit, always trying to cheer up the melancholy dragon. Song has no interest in teaching and would rather get lost or "go exploring."
