This breed of dragon results from eggs or hatchlings that have been neglected. They are usually rebellious, not obeying their masters, sometimes even attacking them. However, their neglect as a hatchling leaves them crippled, and they are weak compared to other breeds, causing them to stay with their masters for 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.

Second Take was near death when it was found by Kaini and a close friend. Working together, they managed to hatch the cold, sickly egg against all odds, with a mixture of skill in dragon-raising and sheer luck. The dragon that emerged stuck to them like glue as it grew, needy and overly reliant on the two of them. Neither minded—it was rather affectionate, too.
