Dark green dragons, once they mature, appear to become an entirely different species. However, this isn’t true. Rather, they burrow underground and get nutrients from their vines. These vines are sometimes referred to as Dragon Grass. These dragons are very violent, and will use their vines to capture, kill, and eat anything that moves, as well as nearby plants. Luckily, their range is limited and they cannot use magic. Dark green dragons tend to be easy to spot since they usually kill all plants around them and thus are usually surrounded by a large clearing.

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.

Having learned her lesson the hard way ages ago, the witch was now familiar with the aggressive tendencies of dark green dragons. Not wishing for another blooming disaster in her yard, she decided to keep this dark green dragon away from her garden and tried numerous efforts to do so.

Abandoning him was a battle, there were ripped skirts and bitten shoes as spoils of a war between a stubborn hatchling and a fleeing, frustrated enchantress. Eventually she gave up trying and gave him a soft patch of earth in a safe distance away from her house.

A plot of loamy earth was all it took to restore harmony. A patch of soft soil with a nicely planted dragon grass was all it took to keep unwanted visitors away.
