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.

The terribleness of not having the influence you need for your dragon to become the correct gender. Sadly, this happened to I Gendered Incorrectly WAH. Without the male influence needed, the owner watched this tinsel all day and night like a hawk. Then, when gendered, she hopefully looked to see if it was a male. The hopeful smile vanished, replaced with a small look of shock and dread. "NO! YOU GENDERED INCORRECTLY!" the owner wailed. I Gendered Incorrectly WAH gazed meekly at the owner as she fumed on an on and grumbled. I Gendered Incorrectly WAH was overwhelmed, so she ran away into the Wilderness and wept and wept. "I'm a failure!" she cried angrily. "Why!" After a week, she realized her owner wasn't planning on killing her or such. She came back home, a slightly sorrowful smile on her face. She rejoined the owner and there lived a happy life.
