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.

Yarrow Corona lives with his twin sister, Pasque Corona, upon an alpine mountain range. The pair of them prefer their solitude, and maintain a family of two. Yarrow Corona is the younger twin, and because he was born with the rarer tan coloring of his dragon species, he often had to rely on his sister's protection to survive to adulthood. Because of this, Yarrow Corona is deeply indebted to his dearly loved sister. As a result, he works hard every day, hoping to become strong enough to return the favor and protect her one day.
