Mint colored dragons are the most peaceful of all dragons; they only eat plants unless they scavenge meat from an already dead animal. They also have no ways to attack others or defend themselves. They are much smaller than other forms of dragons since they only double in size when they mature. Mint dragons are unable to use magic and cannot fly since they lack wings. Their looks have given rise to the common insult of calling dragons “large lizards.”

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.

Juniper is the direct opposite of her skittish mother, Spear. Growing up as the only Mint in a family of loud bold, crazy Flamingos, Juniper has sort of adapted a fearlessness of the world. Everywhere she goes, at least one of her siblings is nearby. She is super close with all of them, even the shier, more reserved ones. She's very loud and open about her feelings. Juniper will say and do whatever she wants around larger dragons, knowing full well her siblings can swoop in to save her if she gets into trouble. This does give rise to a bit of a mischievous side. Sometimes, if she's really feeling bored, Juniper will test the limits of how much danger she can get herself into before being saved. To call her reckless would be a huge understatement. Beyond all the mischief, yelling, and zaney antics, however, lies a truly sweet, little dragon. Juniper loves her family so much, and, though she burdens them, she's still always there to support them.
