Feisty and energetic, Whiptail Dragons pride themselves on their speed and agility. It is not unusual to see several whiptails racing each other. Though fragile, they can easily evade attacks with their superior speed, and often use their long tails as a weapon, giving rise to their name.

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.

Despite being a speedy whiptail dragon, Tiggah is a very slow learner. Being the last to hatch and mature, he is looked down upon by Ryubaka, but not Amadona. He and Amadona have been friends since she began mentoring him on how to be a better dragon. Due to his goofy personality, he is never taken seriously which often results in constant bickering between him and other dragons.
