Ridgewing Dragons live just below the snow level on the upper slopes of mountains. They are a friendly, playful breed and enjoy dancing in wind currents near their homes or plummeting down into valleys from great heights. Their wings, by far their most striking feature, grow in fin-like ridges along their backs. While their bodies lack markings to blend better with their surroundings, a ridgewing’s wings have bright markings in the colors of the flowers that grow in their mountain habitat. Occasionally different-colored individuals can be found, but they are rare because their striking coloring offers little protection.

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.

SuOEL fancies himself an adventurist, always seeking the next big thrill. Whether it be mountain-climbing, snow-surfing, or sky-diving, SuOEL also finds time to collect rare flowers and insects on his travels, most of which are located solely in the mountainous outcrop-terrain where he is native. He is particularly pleased whenever a member of his own clan, or even visitors, shows the slightest tinge of interest in his findings and is sure to talk their minds into oblivion about his latest adventures, so watch out.
