Frilled Dragons are smaller than most other breeds, but when threatened, they stretch out their wings and frills to appear larger. They generally do not like to fight and prefer hiding to confrontation. Frilled dragons live in small groups and often band together to scare off potential threats. Males also use their frills as a way to attract mates, with those displaying the “best” frills being more likely to breed.

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.

Pammela has a sweet voice and is svelte and graceful, but she is tempestuous and condescending and thinks people like her much more than they really do. Her greatest fear is being forgotten and unloved, but a lot of her attention-grabbing behavior only enhances the latter aspect, though she hardly notices. Pammela has a frightening scar running down her face and across her neck, with visible dark tissue where the gash is deepest, and while people don't usually judge someone's goodness merely by their appearance, they can't help but think that the awful scar is fitting for her character.
