Neotropical Dragons are a breed that originate in rainforests. They are fun-loving and enjoy lounging on tree branches, eating whatever fruit they find. They are also often found sunning themselves on rocks, using their large wings to soak up the rays. In the summer, males compete for mates by showing off their striped wings and gliding in spirals down the tree trunks. It is said that the larger the wings, the more likely the male will attract a suitable mate.

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.

HYPer Banana is about as energetic as a banana—the plant, not the draconic kind! She sits around, so still that she blends into the scenery, and on one occasion was even used as an object to be shoved off of a narrow branch and onto a seesaw as part of one of Banana Goldberg's banana-stealing contraptions. HYPer Banana uses her sedentary existence to advantage, however: should an individual with a banana pass too close, she will lunge out and steal the banana. Her strategy is to let the fruit come to her. Bananas Never 1endx, who wants all the banana-stealing records, is frequently annoyed at HYPer Banana for holding onto the record for "Least Bananas Stolen over a 24-hour period"—not that there is much competition for that!
