Waterhorse Dragons received their name due to their horse-like physique and endearing behavior. They are capable of surviving out of water, and when on land their skin secretes a gelatinous goo to retain moisture. However, their large paddle feet are better suited for swimming, and waterhorse dragons tend to move very awkwardly when on land. Waterhorses are very friendly dragons and enjoy playing with humans.

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.

Spitfire, like her mate Soarin, is quite adventurous for a Waterhorse dragon and a hell of a flyer. In fact Spitfire has perfected neckbreaking turns and reckless dives with the help of a few spells. And the fact that her wings are so small actually works to her advantage as they grant her better manoeuverability than most flying dragons. Soarin and Spitfire would love to tour with their show of aerial stunts but so far the audience wasn't too eager for repeat performances. For some reason raining droplets of slime seem to be quite a turn-off for most.
