Speckle-Throated Dragons are an active, playful breed. They are easily excited and rarely remain still, spending much of their time in the air. Living in groups of up to sixty dragons, they nest in open plains and at the bases of mountains. Their speckled throats are their most distinctive feature, as well as the loud, echoing call they produce to communicate with one another. Male Speckle-Throats have a small crest on top of their heads, which they can flush with blood to intimidate enemies and attract mates.

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.

Milodrag, though the eldest of his motley group, still retains the youthful vigour he had as a young hatchling. He often gave his human much grief growing up because of his adventurous spirit and gullibility. Unfortunately, he tends to get clingy with his friends; if left to his own devices for too long, Milo will take to the skies and fly away for hours (sometimes even days) to sulk by himself and make everyone else feel guilty enough to look for him. He's just very insecure and a bit childish in expressing his emotions, so those who know him best tend to pay very close attention to his moods and act accordingly to avoid his spontaneous acts of rebellion.
