Ridgewing Dragons live just below the snow level on the upper slopes of mountains. They are a friendly, playful breed and enjoy dancing in wind currents near their homes or plummeting down into valleys from great heights. Their wings, by far their most striking feature, grow in fin-like ridges along their backs. While their bodies lack markings to blend better with their surroundings, a ridgewing’s wings have bright markings in the colors of the flowers that grow in their mountain habitat. Occasionally different-colored individuals can be found, but they are rare because their striking coloring offers little protection.

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.

Faeyn is a handful, to put it mildly. She prizes on doing the exact opposite of what is expected of her and always seems to manage to get in trouble SOMEHOW.

From tap-dancing on a wild grizzly bear's back to chucking fewmets at Creorluna's encampment to flying in thunderstorms, it's a miracle Zalexia has managed to keep her alive to adulthood. You'd think she'd mature a little and learn that several of her stunts can even get others hurt. But that's just not who Faeyn is.

Of course, Zalexia's found a way to reign that in, lest the clan guardian die from anxiety. When not bouncing-off-the-walls hyper, Faeyn is VERY OCD. Everything has to be just right in her cave and on her person. She has to do everything in a number that is divisible by 36. Don't ask why, it just is. So, ever wise, Zalexia employs hatchlings into messing up her cave to keep her from ever leaving it in exchange for an early start on their hordes. Works like a charm.
