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.

Verdenara is sour-tempered, and quick to anger.  She'll attack anything that goes near the field in which she dwells with thorny vine whips.  But she wasn't always this vicious.  She once had a litter of eggs, fathered by the stripe Tinj Tiko.  She loved these eggs, and the hatchlings they would grow into more than anything else.  But Geoji, the owner of Verdenara's scroll, waited too long to decide which of the clutch she would keep (she was on vacation, you see), and the eggs were abandoned.  And so Verdenara grew bitter, and began to skulk underground, growling under her breath about Geoji's incompetence.
