Mint colored dragons are the most peaceful of all dragons; they only eat plants unless they scavenge meat from an already dead animal. They also have no ways to attack others or defend themselves. They are much smaller than other forms of dragons since they only double in size when they mature. Mint dragons are unable to use magic and cannot fly since they lack wings. Their looks have given rise to the common insult of calling dragons “large lizards.”

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.

When he travels alone, Elude is commonly and disrespectfully mistaken as a Komodo Dragon, hence he often stays with his dragon family to avoid insult. His lack of wings outcast him from many activities of the other dragons, and lack of fins or frills make him unable to swim as well as the sea-oriented wingless dragons. His Canopy Dragon sister often forages for fruits with him, and occasionally carries him on her back so he can experience the wonders of flying. However, this only makes him envy the winged dragons more, but he appreciates his sister's concern.
