Ridgewing Dragons live just below the snow level on the upper slopes of mountains. They are a friendly, playful breed and enjoy dancing in wind currents near their homes or plummeting down into valleys from great heights. Their wings, by far their most striking feature, grow in fin-like ridges along their backs. While their bodies lack markings to blend better with their surroundings, a ridgewing’s wings have bright markings in the colors of the flowers that grow in their mountain habitat. Occasionally different-colored individuals can be found, but they are rare because their striking coloring offers little protection.

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.

Many dragons envy Alstromeria, and for good reasons. He's incredibly intelligent, a skilled poet, and a graceful dancer. It probably would be ideal to add that he's pretty good looking as well. However, it would be lying to say that he hasn't taken notice of this attention. He's not really that self-centered, but has grown to be just a little vain. He's talkative and active, And has himself a little posse that follows him around places when he asks them too. He's pretty kind as well. But even so, just ask one dragon in the clan to describe Alstromeria, and 'vain' would certainly be on the list.
