Horse Dragons have equine-shaped bodies and hooves instead of claws, which allow them to be fast runners. They specialize in running takeoffs, which are quicker than taking off from a stand-still. Horse dragons are able to stalk their prey from the ground then quickly execute an aerial attack for the kill.

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.

Jiviva Darastrix is a very spirited horse dragon whose antics make even Darastrix di Ternesj laugh. She is a master of the sky, beautiful and intelligent as any dragon. Her sense of humor is sharp and keen; always ready to poke fun back at anything that would seem to any other dragon to be insulting. She can turn a bad situation good in a heartbeat with her rapier wit, and has averted many a fight.
