Horse Dragons have equine-shaped bodies and hooves instead of claws, which allow them to be fast runners. They specialize in running takeoffs, which are quicker than taking off from a stand-still. Horse dragons are able to stalk their prey from the ground then quickly execute an aerial attack for the kill.

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.

KitsuneNightmare is a terrifying Horse Dragon with a grudge. He was teased as a hatchling by other dragons in his cave, for being small and weak. He spent the rest of his life growing stronger and faster, as he grew bigger. Now KitsuneNightmare seeks vengeance against those who teased him while he was small, and anyone else who gets in his way. He stalks other dragons at night, and will sneak up on one of his old enemies in the dark and he will leap into the air to attack. KitsuneNightmare is dangerous to any dragon in the cave he grew up in, adult or hatchling. He usually only seriously injures a dragon, leaving them to die; but KitsuneNightmare has been known to outright kill a dragon or two. He rarely mortally wounds a hatchling, but two or three have died from his attacks before.
