Jester Dragons are a pleasant, agreeable breed of dragon known for their striking colors and springy, playful-looking way of moving. Jesters are light on their feet and almost look like they’re dancing from place to place, making them rather fun to watch, but this is simply their natural tendency. Jesters are drawn to excitement and noise, and to dragons and even humans with natural leadership skills. A Jester’s heads tend to get along quite well and are good at recovering from actual conflict, though the black-masked head is generally witty and a bit snarky, and the white-masked head is typically more cheerful and good-natured. Their light-hearted bickering is often cited as an inspiration for comedic writing. Jesters are far from defenseless, though: if actually threatened, they have a very toxic venomous bite, and they are perceptive dragons despite their apparent playfulness. It is thought that their bright, sharply-contrasting colors are aposematic, to warn potential predators of their venom.

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.

Two-headed dragons are unique enough to deserve a separate classification from ordinary dragons. They have two necks, two brains, two mouths, but one stomach and one main body. The two heads usually work together, but there are times when they will fight each other, snapping back and forth. Their unique anatomy prevents them from breeding with single-headed dragons.

Malt and Dextrin may seem sweet and friendly, but those who do a bit of research will find that several cities and individuals have put bounties on their heads for crime and swindling. Malt specialises in befriending lonely-looking individuals (human, dragon, or anything else he suspects is rich) in order to gain access to their finances. Dextrin has a preference for financial schemes, selling items as more magical than they are, or putting out pre-orders for products that he never delivers. They go through pseudonyms like tissue paper. With all the treasure they pilfer, they surely have a hoard somewhere, but nobody seems to know where. They never stay in one place for long and typically leave broken hearts and empty wallets in their wake. Jesters' reputation as being a "friendly, agreeable" kind of dragon is an asset this one exploits.
