Ridgewing Dragons live just below the snow level on the upper slopes of mountains. They are a friendly, playful breed and enjoy dancing in wind currents near their homes or plummeting down into valleys from great heights. Their wings, by far their most striking feature, grow in fin-like ridges along their backs. While their bodies lack markings to blend better with their surroundings, a ridgewing’s wings have bright markings in the colors of the flowers that grow in their mountain habitat. Occasionally different-colored individuals can be found, but they are rare because their striking coloring offers little protection.

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.

Pants of Dark Energon received her name from her owner, as did all the others in her clan. However, like many of the other dragons, Pants of Dark Energon did not understand her name's significance, or why her owner was muttering such strange words both before and after the naming ceremony. "PANTS! What the HECK does that have to do with DARK ENERGON!" Other mutterings were harder to make out, but Pants of Dark Energon is pretty sure her owner said something about unicorns as well. So her name couldn't be that bad of a reference, not if unicorns were involved.
