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.

As the 'Light Aegis' of the JavaTiger Clan, it is Abomillis's duty each year to reward the well behaved young hatchlings of the clan. His personality is widely known to be gentle and good natured... one might even say jolly. He firmly believes that learning proper behavior as hatchlings is important to the well being of dragon society... therefore, he leaves gifts to reinforce good behavior. He absolutely delights in keeping track of what the good little hatchlings of the JavaTiger would like for Christmas and in bringing it to them. ALL the dragons know that he and the Dark Aegis of the Clan, Tuhmayski, keep lists recording who has been 'naughty' and who has been 'nice' the whole year through... and the two Aegis have sharp eyes, so that they definitely KNOW. Although these two NORMALLY confine their attentions to the young of the clan, it is widely whispered that an extraordinary case of either holiday spirit or its opposite among the grown-ups of the clan may draw their notice.
