Canopy Dragons love to soar above the tropical jungles and other densely forested areas. Their billowing, layered wings create generous lift that allows them to ascend effortlessly over the warm jungle. While their unique wings do not make them the fastest flyers, they are champion gliders. To further this end, dexterity, maneuverability, and grace are all judged by the females when selecting their mates from the males that can accurately complete the exhausting and elaborate courtship dance between the close growing branches of the upper canopy.

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.

The little dragon was gliding through the forest looking for food as was the daily routine for them at this early part of the day, when he realized that there appeared to be another dragon of his kind watching him. He flew down to greet them, but as it turned out he'd been mistaken. It was merely a leaf playing tricks on him; it was oddly shaped and colored, but it was no dragon! With a huff he looked around to see if anyone else had been watching his embarrassing mistake and sighed with relief as he saw he was alone. Too bad though, for although it had tricked him it was a very pretty leaf.
