Water Walkers are small dragons that are frequently found around bogs and ponds. While they are flightless, they retain the flight sacs and hollow bones of their airborne cousins. These traits, coupled with their extraordinarily long, webbed toes, allow them to stand on top of calm waters, using their small sails to propel them wherever they please. They spend the majority of their lives on the water, retreating to the tops of lily pads when the waters become too rough to float atop.

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.

Douglas is the oldest, and head of Pink's horde of troll dragons. He isn't genetically inferior like is typically required of a Water walking troll, but this was waived for him because of his extensive experience in trolling. With the great honor of being the head troll comes the terrible responsibility of being "the one".

The one is a dragon with the ability to single-handedly take out every single other dragon in the world with his ugliness alone. Or not.
