Holiday dragons are a very mysterious breed. They are only seen during winter, and even then it is hard to catch a glimpse of one. They are responsible for the general cheer that spreads during the holidays. In essence, they are the “Spirits of Winter.”

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.

The Yule Song is rather frail and meek, despite his noble appearance.  His early days were spent desperately trying to gain the attention and affection of his older brother A Little Holiday Spirit, who was then excessively cruel to the poor Christmas.  In a last-resort attempt to be noticed by his brother, he fled from the home cave, using his barely-developed wings for the first time.  When he couldn't fly any more, he ran; when he couldn't run any more, he crawled.  It was many weeks before he was found, nearly dead, by none other than A Little Holiday Spirit, who was desperate to redeem himself to his younger brother and his clan.  Yule Song is currently a hatchling-sitter, as his foray into the wilderness had permanently weakened him.
