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.

Cynthia is one of the many dragons rescued and nurtured by the wide ranging clan of humans founded by AnselaJonla. Her egg was found in an unknown location and taken to a hatchery to be raised.

Once she matured, she found her lifemate, a Speckle-Throated dragon, among the other AnselaJonla dragons. In the tradition of the AnselaJonla flock, both dragons took the same name, Bindyl, to pass down to any of their offspring that remained within the flock.

Like her mate, Cynthia prefers playing to fighting. If danger is spotted, however, and it's something on the ground, Cynthia will happily try and slow it down. She is especially good at making horses turn and flee with just a few nips from her sharp teeth and lashes of her tail against their legs.
