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.

Santonilya was found outside of the cave as a hatchling, where, against all odds, Crichton took her under his wing. Despite his rough nature, he doted on his adopted daughter and protects her even now by chasing away all suitors. Despite this, Santonilya adores her father, though his overprotective nature has rendered her shy and unable to fend for herself. She assists Porewit with his healing by gathering herbs, which she knows as well as the back of her claw.
