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.

An optimistic dragon who delights in the mere act of living, this cheery creature can often be seen flying along on sunny days, rushing off to attend one festival or another. Relishing the scent of lilacs and the taste of fresh fruit, he sets up shop at fairs and celebrations, selling elaborate trinkets of his own design. Considering the fact that he is quite happy to be paid with slices of watermelon or bouquets of flowers, he is very popular with tourists and locals alike; and not just for his cheaply-purchased but exquisite goods, but also for his charming and friendly personality.
