Canopy Dragons love to soar above the tropical jungles and other densely forested areas. Their billowing, layered wings create generous lift that allows them to ascend effortlessly over the warm jungle. While their unique wings do not make them the fastest flyers, they are champion gliders. To further this end, dexterity, maneuverability, and grace are all judged by the females when selecting their mates from the males that can accurately complete the exhausting and elaborate courtship dance between the close growing branches of the upper canopy.

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.

Slight and filled with nervous energy, Calestino works hard to please others, even if it means embarrassing himself. Though meek and happy to be forever on the lowest branch of the social tree, he's not defenseless. With the tiniest bit of mana, one of two spells at the forefront of his mind, and a clap of his wings, he can send a bolt from the air to the ground, which either promotes plant growth or chars the spot, depending on the spell.
