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.

The tamer that found this egg was intrigued by the fact that grass was growing around it, in the sunless cave where she found it. She took it to her garden, instead of the cave that had become home to the other dragons she'd raised, in the hopes that her garden would become abundant and beautiful.

After a while, the tamer noticed that many of her gardeners were disappearing, and the ones that remained were very nervous about their work. She walked through the garden, noticing splintered and broken hoes strewn about the flowers. She saw a great bare area, and it was the same spot where she had placed the egg. She stepped closer to investigate, and a large vine swiped at her, barely missing her. It was then that she realized where her gardeners had gone. She didn't have the heart to kill the beast, so instead she set up a fence around the barren earth, and placed a sign warning her new gardeners, "Don't Hoe Over There."
