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.

Blirvis is another of Be Still Your Heart and Ivouris' offspring. He is a rather rowdy and rebellious male with a self-centered attitude greatly mirroring his mother's. He once knowingly moved in on his brother Be Still Thy Waves' girl when they were separated because of an earthquake. He didn't bother sticking around for the egg they produced and is definitely not welcomed by his siblings at all. It seems he has paid somewhat of a price for his selfish behavior, as he's suffered many scars from other dragons who've had enough of him.
