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.

Dazzling gold on silvered ivory, molten sunshine pours over shimming scales, a brilliant light against sky. Soaring ever where the sun moves, the radiance of both it and him blind his prey to their presence, till he descends, like an avenging angel from the skies, to take his meal. A flash of fangs, flutter of wings, swishing of tail, then gliding back up to the heavens, a terrifying, yet glorious hunter.
