Striped Dragons come in a dazzling array of colors complemented by an intricate pattern of stripes. These bright colors and patterns help attract their favorite food, insects. Because their prey is so tiny, striped dragons must spend a large portion of their day eating. The color of the offspring is usually determined by the dragon’s mate.

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.

You Have Mail shudders every time one of the other dragons 'shortens' her name to You've Got Mail. "It's longer that way! How can you not see it," she will demand of anyone that does. Then the grammar lesson begins. "An apostrophe replaces missing letters, so you've is short for you have, so what you're really saying is 'you have got mail' and that's not my name!" When she's not proving her grammatical points, You Have Mail can be seen walking or flying between the many caves and caverns, delivering notes and letters from dragon to dragon. Sometimes, she will even deliver letters to the nearby human village, but she doesn't really appreciate how so many of the villagers run away in fear or forget to offer her insects as payment.
