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.

Suuri is a small dragon, but he thinks he is big. This is because he grew up with drake hatchlings, who were smaller than him. From an early age, he saw himself as their bigger brother and protector, and he still acts as a protector for the other Mints (since his drake friends don't need his protection anymore). Of course, being a Mint, he doesn't actually have any powers to defend himself or others, but since he doesn't know that, he'll confidently jump up and down in front of any predator, hissing and snarling, swishing his tail from side to side and generally acting really weird. It is obvious that he takes his job very seriously. So far, no predator has ever attacked him; perhaps they are too confused by his behaviour, or perhaps they decide that such a small prey isn't worth the effort. Or perhaps it's the very large Sinomorph that tends to appear right behind Suuri without him noticing, sending a silent but clear message of "back away slowly...".
