Mint colored dragons are the most peaceful of all dragons; they only eat plants unless they scavenge meat from an already dead animal. They also have no ways to attack others or defend themselves. They are much smaller than other forms of dragons since they only double in size when they mature. Mint dragons are unable to use magic and cannot fly since they lack wings. Their looks have given rise to the common insult of calling dragons “large lizards.”

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.

Quaiba is a rather shy dragon. She lives in a Cave with much larger breeds and is one of the smallest dragons there. The larger dragons tend to make Quaiba nervous. Not that she will be stepped on- she's very good at dodging legs, wings, and teeth of her careless Cavemates. Instead, Quaiba believes that her small size means she has less say in Cave politics. She often has very good ideas about how the Cave should be run but feels that the larger dragons should get to make all the decisions. One of the Cave leaders, a large, gentle Terrae, has noticed Quaiba's tendency to come up with innovative solutions and has started listening to the little mint and sharing Quaiba's ideas with the other dragons.
