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.

This dragon favors eating bugs that she finds in upright dead trees.  She uses her claw to rip open a section of it and eats the bugs inside quickly as they unsuccessfully scuttle for cover.

     Because she tears the dead trees apart to eat, she destroys the breeding ground for her favorite food.  Thus she tends to be nomadic, constantly moving on in search of new trees with plentiful bugs.  Woodpeckers consider her to be an incarnation of Famine.
