Striped Dragons come in a dazzling array of colors complemented by an intricate pattern of stripes. These bright colors and patterns help attract their favorite food, insects. Because their prey is so tiny, striped dragons must spend a large portion of their day eating. The color of the offspring is usually determined by the dragon’s mate.

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.

Papaya was named when he ate a papaya when he hatched out of his egg. He absolutely loves things that grow and loves to wander and look up trees to watch the majestic leaves fall in autumn and grow back in spring. Lately, he wandered straight into a vampire dragon called The Doctor as he was surveying the area. He asked a weird question, "Are you with them" Papaya looked at him with confusion and asked, "Who's them" He noticed that the vampire relaxed and he explained what was going on with the war with The Would Be Shimmer and her army against the shimmerscale dragons. Papaya made it his sole duty to watch the shimmerscale The Doctor was watching. Along with a moonstone and another vampire, he proudly watches as Shimmerscale Ripple continues to get longer.
