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.

Fin is a showoff. He mainly brags about his wings. He enjoys flying around at great speeds flashing them, and is popular among female dragons. Other male dragons, however, despise him. But are afraid to step up, because Fin is always followed by a crowd of "friends". These "friends" of his don't exactly give the impression that they'd let anyone harm him. Truth is, they hate him as much as anyone else. But they think that if they hang out with Fin, the female dragons will like them as well. Fin, however, doesn't know this.
