Daydream Dragons are the hosts of daydreams and fantasies. They spend the majority of their time sitting on clouds, dropping daydreams down into the minds of people passing by. Humans who live near Daydream Dragons must be especially careful not to let their thoughts wander, or they could end up spending hours or even days in a trance-like waking dream state.

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.

Drifting Dream enjoys basking in the sunlight as she drifts along on her cloud above her group's territory, watching for any danger or threats. She is oblivious to Mint Spring's affection towards her and only dreams of one dragon who holds her heart: Summer Evening. She'll spend hours just listening to his deep raspy voice as he converses with her on the sunning rocks. She dreams of one day becoming his mate and wishes that Mint Spring would not hang around her so much—it might give Summer Evening the wrong idea.
