Mint colored dragons are the most peaceful of all dragons; they only eat plants unless they scavenge meat from an already dead animal. They also have no ways to attack others or defend themselves. They are much smaller than other forms of dragons since they only double in size when they mature. Mint dragons are unable to use magic and cannot fly since they lack wings. Their looks have given rise to the common insult of calling dragons “large lizards.”

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.

Little Mr Minty is among the first of the dragons to have been adopted by his keeper, and is a very kind and gentle fellow. It was only after he had taken the black dragon Noble Alt Curled di Pitchscale under his wing (metaphorically speaking of course, as mint dragons do not have wings), that Noble was finally accepted as a member of the group. As a result of that somewhat bold act, Little Mr Minty's opinion in group discussions is never dismissed simply because he is smaller than the other members of the group.
