Speckle-Throated Dragons are an active, playful breed. They are easily excited and rarely remain still, spending much of their time in the air. Living in groups of up to sixty dragons, they nest in open plains and at the bases of mountains. Their speckled throats are their most distinctive feature, as well as the loud, echoing call they produce to communicate with one another. Female Speckle-Throats are slightly smaller than males and lack a head crest. However, they are swifter and more agile and prefer to hunt in small groups in order to take down prey.

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.

Salmon Storm is a somewhat reserved dragons. She cannot stay still and loves to fly, but she does not talk very often. She hunts frequently, and is considered the most agile of all the dragons possessed by her owner. Salmon Storm is cheerful and gentle to others around her, and can even show that kind personality to other small woodland animals. Unlike other Speckle-Throated Dragons, Salmon Storm loves to fish, and she also loves to show off her flying skills from time to time. Salmon Storm is very close to Hasty Bolt and Mountain's Sunset, and regards them as very dear friends. She is also mated to Azure of Blud, and is the only dragon known to tame his ferocity.
