Feisty and energetic, Whiptail Dragons pride themselves on their speed and agility. It is not unusual to see several whiptails racing each other. Though fragile, they can easily evade attacks with their superior speed, and often use their long tails as a weapon, giving rise to their name.

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.

Indytail is a very adventurous dragon who loves exploring and hunting for treasure. He also has an eclectic knowledge of ancient civilizations and archaic languages. Considered to be stubborn and hard to get along with by some, he's very determined and doesn't easily back down from challenges. His signature accessory, aside from his slightly-longer-than-normal tail, is a battered fedora he found discarded near a human village.
