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.

Trypo is a real sweetheart! She is generally very quiet and prefers to remain in the background, or, more specifically, under her husband's wing, where it's safe. She has a light voice that can be very difficult to make out at times, meaning talking to her can be pretty annoying, not that she considers anything she has to say worthy in conversation. Though closed off around others, she is a lot more open and active around those she trusts, and even her voice becomes firmer. Trypo is always willing to help her friends and family, doing whatever she possibly can for them, even pushing aside her skittishness if it becomes necessary. For as quiet and reserved as she is, Trypo is actually quite brave. Under pressure, she can really handle herself and think clearly, almost more so than in everyday life. She doesn't really get stressed, Trypo is great about handling her time and energy and making sure whatever happens at least happens efficiently. This is what Draws her husband, Tea, to her.
