White Dragons are pacifists and specialize in extremely strong healing magic. The only limit of this magic is that it can’t bring back the dead. They only eat plants and never kill living things.

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.

Around Lagie's caves, the whites are known to be surprisingly good swimmers, and as everyone knows, white dragons are practically born with a stick in their paw; thus, one might expect that a white dragon might make a good stickwaterball player. Sadly, in Jessa's case, this is not so. First, she wasn't allowed to use her own stick, she had to play with a regulation-style stick. Then, Jessa turned out to have lousy eye-stick coordination, missing the ball on nearly every swipe she took at it. And finally, when she did finally hit the ball, it sailed over the heads of all the other dragons and came straight down on the trainer's head. That was the day, Jessa quit stickwaterball training. However, she still loves the sport, watching every game, and most recently, designating herself head cheerleader for all the teams. Her cheer always ends with "Go, Team!" so no matter who's playing, they'll think the cheer is for them. (The Pipefish are her favourite team but no one else knows that.)
