Sweetlings are a small, flightless breed of dragon. They are omnivores who favor sweet fruits and honey, and have been known to go to great lengths to obtain their favorite treats. Their long, prehensile tails allow them to grab onto branches and give them superior balance. Sweetlings are expressive dragons and have a large array of calls to communicate with others. They become very vocal during breeding season and sing long, beautiful melodies to attract a mate. Inquisitive in nature, Sweetlings are known to investigate anything that piques their interest, and are quick to flee if the object of their curiosity strikes back.

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.

Voltario is rather silly and airheaded; his prancing about and his constant declarations of the power of love have driven the other dragons up the wall more than once. Despite this, he is a kind, friendly soul (albeit one that behaves like a hatchling). He especially loves birds, and can often be seen defending them from predators or nursing them back to health. He has a bit of a crush on Taranaei; however, he is far too shy to say anything about it. They are, however, the best of friends (at least, as far as they can be when he is utterly terrified of her sock puppets).
