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.

Tree-lover is a very unusual dragon, even by his cave's standards.

He seems to believe that every tree he comes across needs a hug. While he's at his stripe-dragon routine of eating a mountain-sized mass of bugs he tends to stop at every tree and give it a hug. It's a good thing he's not a carnivore, or he would have scared away all his prey ages before he came even close to catching it.
