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.

With a bright, vivacious personality that complements her dazzling hues, Kinderly is a social butterfly who thrives on the attention and company of others. Though she has no apparent interests of her own, the Stripe possesses an unending fascination with the activities of the others in her cave. She enjoys the company of Aurelius in particular, and adores the wanderings the two sometimes take together.
