Harvest Dragons are a large, flightless breed most often found in heavily forested mountains. Normally shy, these omnivorous dragons keep to themselves in remote regions, but in the fall they descend from their high territory to search for food—and lots of it. During the autumn months, harvest dragons will eat whatever they can find, from large and small animals to nuts and fruit. In the winter they retreat into large caves and hibernate until spring, living off the fat they have built up.

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.

Since Parkside is generally unwelcome around small dragons and mana storage areas due to a belief she'll mindlessly eat them all, she's opted to move to a hamlet where the residents are nonmagical folk who do everything with their hands or with mechanical devices, who also have no strong opinions of harvest dragons. She lives in a tea house and brews tea, mostly jasmine and black varieties, while also developing a sweet tea with cream and chewy starch balls. Newcomers are sometimes taken aback by a big dragon sitting alongside the humans, but they either learn she's friendly and treat her as a person, or they're escorted out for making a scene.
