Holiday dragons are a very mysterious breed. They are only seen during winter, and even then it is hard to catch a glimpse of one. They are responsible for the general cheer that spreads during the holidays. In essence, they are the “Spirits of Winter.”

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.

Playful and affectionate, this male spends most of his time acting like a much younger dragon, always ready for a good game and quick to play harmless pranks on the unsuspecting. But beneath his goofy outer demeanor lies a very old, very wise, and very benevolent dragon, whose cheer-bringing magic is powerful enough to end wars and cause whole villages to burst simultaneously into song. Only a few suspect, and even fewer know for sure, that his impressive magic is in part due to his ancestry; the very first Holly who ever brought Christmas cheer to the world and the very first Winter dragon to sing the joys of snow are his maternal grandparents.
