Mint colored dragons are the most peaceful of all dragons; they only eat plants unless they scavenge meat from an already dead animal. They also have no ways to attack others or defend themselves. They are much smaller than other forms of dragons since they only double in size when they mature. Mint dragons are unable to use magic and cannot fly since they lack wings. Their looks have given rise to the common insult of calling dragons “large lizards.”

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.

Slick Lizard is cute and beautiful, at least according to Knots in Green. Slick happens to be the espionage girl in Nice's clan of Dragons. She sneaks around and gets into places where the other larger dragons can't get into. She is very happy with her size and sometimes acts like a know it all for the fun of it. She tells tales to the hatchlings about battles she has seen. She likes to chase after Going Death's shadow on the ground, like a kitten. She happens to be the only prey that has escaped Knots in Green's jaw. Chasing Going Death's shadow was how she got into his grip anyways, she has loved him ever since.
