Black Capped Teimarr are a small and sociable breed of dragon with an appetite for seafood. They can commonly be seen flitting around sand dunes and tidal marshes, searching for crabs and other aquatic invertebrates, or cavorting in tidal pools in hopes of finding landlocked fish. Because of their large wing-to-body size, they are excellent long distance fliers and are known to migrate hundreds of miles along coastlines, or even across open sea to outlying islands in search of seasonal delicacies such as bird eggs, fledglings and schooling bait fish. The males are easily distinguished by their large jousting horns and their extendable neck frill, which they show off to the females through enthusiastic head bobbing.

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.

Boots got his name after he was looking for crabs on the coast one day and got his head stuck in an old boot that had washed ashore. After getting it off he saw the other dragons laughing at him and decided from that moment on he'd be the 'class clown' of the coast.

Now as an adult he plays pranks on local fishermen and tears holes in their nets to steal their catch. His favorite meal is lobster, though it's a rare treat. He doesn't have any loyalties to any clan and prefers it that way. Despite his easy-going nature he doesn't like to take orders from anyone. If he does someone a favor it's only because he wants to, or if he's offered something in return.
