Frostbite Dragons first appear at the beginning of winter, creeping in with the frosts. They have found their place in human lore as the spirits of snow, since they only reveal themselves during icy weather. In the depths of winter, they cover the world in blankets of snow and are believed to be responsible for the glittering frost that creeps over everything. Although they appear cold and distant, they are actually rather mischievous and enjoy spending time dancing through blizzards.

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.

Kyyi has fond memories of the alpine. The humans there never threatened the Frostbites, preferring to keep up myths and stories about the dragons. Decades ago Kyyi was one of the few unfortunate enough to be captured by unfamiliar humans, her wings irreparably desecrated in the process. She woke up from her unconscious, captured state rescued and far from the mountains she knew. A former warrior turned family woman named Lucille offered Kyyi shelter as she recuperated. There Kyyi met the woman's former partner in battle; an egotistical Royal Crimson who proudly introduced herself as Relantia. She was met by hostility from the dragon at first, the Royal Crimson still resenting a premature retirement. However, common ground in their loneliness and once wild dragon lives helped them bond. Nowadays, the Frostbite enjoys watching as Lucille's children move on to their own rescue endeavors and keeps her once-again battling Royal Crimson mate in check, rarely missing her life in the alpine.
