Horse Dragons have equine-shaped bodies and hooves instead of claws, which allow them to be fast runners. They specialize in running takeoffs, which are quicker than taking off from a stand-still. Horse dragons are able to stalk their prey from the ground then quickly execute an aerial attack for the kill.

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 Horse Dragon quietly stepped through the empty library. "There must be something in here..." He thought to himself. Kit had been wanting to master magic ever since he was little. Ever since he grew wings he'd been hoarding books instead of gold, so he knew basic stuff. A loud yell behind him diverted his attention to other things. A young human girl had seen him. He huffed and lowered his head, trying to look friendly. The girl didn't seem to notice. She ran off, screaming for her mentor. Kit sighed, picked up a mouthful of books, and simply burst through the library walls. Best to leave.
