Greater Spotted Drakes are found in open pine and oak forests. They are among the larger end of the spectrum, but are quite laid back and feed mostly on plant material. They are ambush predators and rely on their dappled markings for camouflage. Females are usually larger than males, though males are brighter in color. In the breeding season the male attracts a mate by making loud, low-pitched bugles, followed by an aerial courtship dance as proof of his quality as a father to her offspring.

Though it may appear at first that dragons and drakes have much in common, the two are completely separate species. Drakes are smaller and less intelligent than their cousin species, though both dragons and drakes sit comfortably near the top of the food chain. They are always found bearing antlers and leathery wings. Drakes share many of the same habitats that dragons do, and typically hunt in packs.

Rosy is pretty much insecure and fragile. A single insult could make him cry, but if somebody laughs because of his name, it will probably lead to him hiding somewhere and making a river of salty tears for hours. Same happens if he is threatened or attacked. However, most of his friends try to protect him, especially the other drakes, so he doesn't really feel that bad around other dragons.
