Terrae Dragons are primarily herbivores who prefer to eat from the tops of trees. However, due to their massive size, they must rely on small, specialized scales to absorb and convert energy from the sun. Since they live in tightly-knit groups, this form of energy absorption helps preserve the forests in which these dragons reside.

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.

Leaves from Dying Trees (Leaves) is named for the fact he was taken in on the brink of death. He is a peaceable and gentle dragon, often seen wandering the forests on clan territory. He has many friends in the clan, and can spend hours relaxing in the sunlight with them. He appears to be quite close to Cobra and they spend hours on end with each other.
