Ridgewing Dragons live just below the snow level on the upper slopes of mountains. They are a friendly, playful breed and enjoy dancing in wind currents near their homes or plummeting down into valleys from great heights. Their wings, by far their most striking feature, grow in fin-like ridges along their backs. While their bodies lack markings to blend better with their surroundings, a ridgewing’s wings have bright markings in the colors of the flowers that grow in their mountain habitat. Occasionally different-colored individuals can be found, but they are rare because their striking coloring offers little protection.

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.

Moth-Pillar loves moths. Any moths that she can find, she catches. Her collection has grown very large over time. She has a large cave all to herself and the moths and in it are many glass jars. She checks on all of them often, and when she finds that some have died, she digs a hole for the glass jar and pins the moth's body up on the wall. Many merchants like her because she constantly needs more jars. Nobody knows where she gets all of the money from, but many have noticed a few of their coins or items missing.
