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.

White Tiger lives in a forest with other Striped dragons. She is fierce, like the others, imitating their cousin, the tiger. White Tiger's forest is on an island. A small dolphin pod swims nearby, which includes her mate, Aiwha, a Two-Finned Bluna. They are very proud of their first hatchling, a Blue Striped dragon. Every Striped dragon on her island dreams of having a colored hatchling.
