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.

A dreamy-eyed creature who often seems to be only half aware of what's going on around him, this dragon is also a seer, relaying visions of the near or distant future to those he believes it will help. His predictions have always come true, and his warnings have averted many disasters. However, there is one vision that he finds more dear then all the rest, a vision not of horror, but of a paradise beyond imagining. When questioned about what this vision might contain, however, he simply smiles and responds with "what a day that will be," often looking up into the sky as he does so, as if observing something in the heavens.
