Pillow Dragons are covered in enormous amounts of fur affectionately referred to as fluff. Despite their deceivingly large size, they can still fly even with such tiny wings because their bodies are remarkably light. Pillow Dragons have a habit of sleeping for up to eighteen hours a day, waking only in short bursts. During their few waking hours, they take the time to hunt for prey. Once a pillow dragon becomes an adult, its fur grows very slowly. Pillow dragon fur is used to make very expensive and valuable cloth known as “dragon cashmere.”

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.

A rather abnormal dragon, King Cotton can often be found marching about the cave, lifting his legs up high and placing them carefully down on the cave floor to create the maximum amount of sound possible with his padded paws.  While doing this, he sings upbeat, warbling notes that go together quite well to accompany his performance.  He does this very well, and many of the hatchlings gather to watch his one-dragon parade as he sings in a surprisingly melodious voice.  However, he only ever sings one song, so many of the older dragons inwardly groan and make themselves busy elsewhere when he begins to preen for his performance, as they are extremely sick of hearing the same notes to the same rhythm that they've been hearing ever since he discovered the tune as a young hatchling and went to great pains to commit it to memory.  King Cotton is happily oblivious to the other dragons' distaste, however, and continues to perform proudly, as if all the world were there to enjoy his music.
