Horse Dragons have equine-shaped bodies and hooves instead of claws, which allow them to be fast runners. They specialize in running takeoffs, which are quicker than taking off from a stand-still. Horse dragons are able to stalk their prey from the ground then quickly execute an aerial attack for the kill.

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.

Praline a la Mode is a very outgoing dragon that has attracted quite the following. From the day she hatched, Praline wanted to be popular, and set out trying to befriend other hatchlings. Eventually, she turned to singing. As a dragon, this form of singing is a combination of roaring and telepathy, and her tribe has mixed opinions on it. For the most part, the older dragons hate it, while the younger dragons love it. After seeing some dancers in a human village, she tried to imitate their moves, but her dragon body made it awkward. Instead, she created a performance involving prancing and short bursts of flight. She has a group of young male dragons who follow her around that she calls her "fanboys." Anytime she puts on a performance, they can be seen cheering her on, regardless of whether the rest of the crowd likes it or not.
