Harvest Dragons are a large, flightless breed most often found in heavily forested mountains. Normally shy, these omnivorous dragons keep to themselves in remote regions, but in the fall they descend from their high territory to search for food—and lots of it. During the autumn months, harvest dragons will eat whatever they can find, from large and small animals to nuts and fruit. In the winter they retreat into large caves and hibernate until spring, living off the fat they have built up.

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.

Fresh Autum was named so because of her unique birth story. Unlike most children of her breed, she hatched late in the fall rather than late summer. Due to her late birth, she was unable to take part in the feasts their breeds have and almost died in the winter due to her nonexistent layer of fat and inability to hibernate because of her hunger. Luckily, flamedreamer took her in as a hatchling, healing her back to health and allowing her to sleep the rest of the winter away in peace.
