Canopy Dragons love to soar above the tropical jungles and other densely forested areas. Their billowing, layered wings create generous lift that allows them to ascend effortlessly over the warm jungle. While their unique wings do not make them the fastest flyers, they are champion gliders. To further this end, dexterity, maneuverability, and grace are all judged by the females when selecting their mates from the males that can accurately complete the exhausting and elaborate courtship dance between the close growing branches of the upper canopy.

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.

TreeCrown is a prideful and somewhat conceited Canopy Dragon. He firmly believes that Canopies are the best species of dragon, and he is completely against mixing of breeds. Purebreds are the only other dragons he mentally talks to, he just pretends not to notice if a 'mud race' dragon talks to him. TreeCrown has few friends, just a small group of stuck up Canopy Dragons that isolate themselves somewhat from the rest of the cave. They do keep ties with their cave, so that they have a safe place to hide if things get dangerous.
