Dark green dragons, once they mature, appear to become an entirely different species. However, this isn’t true. Rather, they burrow underground and get nutrients from their vines. These vines are sometimes referred to as Dragon Grass. These dragons are very violent, and will use their vines to capture, kill, and eat anything that moves, as well as nearby plants. Luckily, their range is limited and they cannot use magic. Dark green dragons tend to be easy to spot since they usually kill all plants around them and thus are usually surrounded by a large clearing.

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.

Smaragdanlage was raised by her adoptive parents, Drache and Drago. She was nicknamed "Lage" by her Split parents because Drago thought it was cuter and easier. Often one to burst into an angry rage, Lage is often angry with her contrasting sister, Nightly Death. She treats everything like it's life-or-death, and avoids most everyone, but loves Drache and Drago, her parents, and Fiery Immortality, her sister. She is extremely protective of her family and will attempt to kill any dragon that so much as makes a joke at their expense. Drago always attempts to calm her down, but Drache doesn't really care and lets her do whatever she pleases. As such, she's bonded more with Drache than Drago.
