Mint colored dragons are the most peaceful of all dragons; they only eat plants unless they scavenge meat from an already dead animal. They also have no ways to attack others or defend themselves. They are much smaller than other forms of dragons since they only double in size when they mature. Mint dragons are unable to use magic and cannot fly since they lack wings. Their looks have given rise to the common insult of calling dragons “large lizards.”

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.

Dahuri considers himself to be a hatchling still and is often found playing hide-and-seek with the cave's hatchling dragons. Though eventually all hatchling dragons grow up and loose interest in playing games, Dahuri isn't sad for long--as long as there are always eggs to be hatched, Dahuri will never be alone. When not playing with hatchlings, Dahuri spends his time rooting around the foliage outside the cave, harvesting little sprigs of fragrant bush and holly which he offers other dragons as a sign of friendship.
