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.

Limpsail was named for his appearance as a hatchling. He seemingly grew only one sail, which was slung over his side, limp. TheMuppyOtter eventually found that he had two sails, and that they were just sticky, and stuck together. Limpsail is a very patient dragon, and he waited calmly for his sister to grow up, always watching over her, protectively, even making noises at his owner when he came close. The only other dragons he let come near were the pygmies, who are always flopping around the cave, seemingly in their own little society.
