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.

Canetail is like an affectionate pet rat; she always sniffs around, getting into the places other dragons can't. Whenever TheMuppyOtter takes her out, she finds "treasures," in the wilderness. She often brings back bottle caps, soda cans, and anything else that catches her eye, even the occasional lost ring. She hoards these in the back of the cave, with the vampire dragons, and seems to be either too preoccupied to notice them, or just plain unafraid. She's even bold enough to sneak in bits from other dragon's piles, particularly Crayfly's. Canetail was named for her exceptional ability to sniff out cane and sugar. She often pairs up with Mewtail, helping each-other find and carry back as much sugarcane as possible. Mewtail seems to enjoy the company.
