Holiday dragons are a very mysterious breed. They are only seen during winter, and even then it is hard to catch a glimpse of one. They are responsible for the general cheer that spreads during the holidays. In essence, they are the “Spirits of Winter.”

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.

Vilily was always odd as a hatchling. When the other hatchlings would be chasing small bugs, she'd be sitting in the sun making up lovely songs with her ribbons. Because of this, she now can play the most beautiful songs for the rest of the dragons. She didn't know of any use her songs would be until a hatchling was lulled to sleep by the sound of her ribbons. Now she helps Alex watch over the hatchlings by playing her songs when it's time for them to sleep. She has become very attached to Alex, so much so that the rest of the cave believes that if Alex was a dragon instead of a drake that the two would become mates.
