Green Dragons are also sometimes called “earth” dragons. They usually live deep within caves, and have power over the earth. They are capable of launching boulders at high speeds, and can cause earthquakes by slamming down onto the ground.

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.

Prudence Foxglove is often called the "real" leader of Lorraine's caves, though never in front of the red dragon Minalrito. While Minalrito spends all his time lording over the other dragons, it is Prudence who stops fights and deals out justice when one wrongs another. Even Dust Eater, her infamously irritable mate, never fails to respect and obey her mandates. Minalrito is carefully controlled by being persuaded that it was all his idea in the first place.
