Striped Dragons come in a dazzling array of colors complemented by an intricate pattern of stripes. These bright colors and patterns help attract their favorite food, insects. Because their prey is so tiny, striped dragons must spend a large portion of their day eating. The color of the offspring is usually determined by the dragon’s mate.

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.

Alex Castallanta is a young Green Stripe dragon. Abandoned as a hatchling, Alejandro Castallanta and Toronado Impala found him and raised him. He thinks of the two as older brothers, and always loves to hang out with them. Unlike Alejandro, he couldn't care less about the females of the clan (he'd rather stay friends with them), and honestly is more interested in hanging out with other males.

Toronado and Alejandro have tried to set him up with several single females in the clan, but he doesn't show any interest in any of them. This worries Alejandro and Toronado, as they think he'll stay single forever. Alex has tried to tell them many times that it's not like he doesn't want a mate, he just doesn't want a female one, but they always seem to be busy with something else.
