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.

As much as she adores her vibrant colours, Ezagunak Izena is constantly terrified of being killed by trees. She has an irrational fear of trees, and an even more irrational stereotypical Scottish accent. If you ask why, she'll launch into a story about how her grandpapi was pillaging the village one day and then—but she'll never finish, because she'll fall asleep during her own story. She spends all of her days holed up in her little cave, admiring herself and trying to remember what's happened to her during her life, as she does have a few memory problems.
