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.

Ramika almost died as a hatchling. She was born with a twisted gut. Twisted guts are fatal to dragons, and many dragons are lost because of this. It took a lot of doctoring by Whites and Magis to help keep her alive. However, the treatment caused loss of eyesight on the left side. Ramika has no choice but to stay on the ground, and never take to the air. Her dream of becoming an actual flying Ridgewing was gone forever. Ramika is friends with Sirrint, another Ridgewing of the clan. Ever since Sirrint started repecting Ramika, Ramika found her personality. She is a fun living dragon who likes to chase others on foot.
