Dark green dragons, once they mature, appear to become an entirely different species. However, this isn’t true. Rather, they burrow underground and get nutrients from their vines. These vines are sometimes referred to as Dragon Grass. These dragons are very violent, and will use their vines to capture, kill, and eat anything that moves, as well as nearby plants. Luckily, their range is limited and they cannot use magic. Dark green dragons tend to be easy to spot since they usually kill all plants around them and thus are usually surrounded by a large clearing.

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.

Gail is one of the many dragons rescued and nurtured by the wide ranging clan of humans founded by AnselaJonla. Her egg was found in a forest and taken to a hatchery to be raised.

Once she matured, she found her lifemate, a Gray dragon, among the other AnselaJonla dragons. In the tradition of the flock, both dragons took the same name, Rovine, to pass down to their offspring.

Gail cultivates a beautiful garden above her hiding place, in contrast to others of her breed who would just suck the nutrients out of everything in reach. There are loads of flowery, nectar-bearing plants there, which draw in loads of insects.

With those insects come other things, larger things. Prime prey like Black Tea and Striped dragons come wandering blithely into this beautiful insect-haven, blissfully unaware of the danger lurking under the cover of the lush bushes and thick banks of insect-covered flowers.
