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.

Triahna is an odd dragon for her breed. She was originally born a bright green which worried her mother because she would not be able to stay hidden from predators in her mountainous habitat. As this Ridgewing grew up, her green changed into sweet purples and blues. Her scales are now as bright and colorful as any other Ridgewing and most who meet her consider her to be even more beautiful than others of her breed. Although Triahna excels in beauty, she is definitely not the smartest in the cave. She is sweet, yes, but not especially perceptive when it comes to recognizing the way others feel.
