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.

Unlike most of the dragons that the witch had painstakingly collected, Floris, as a hatchling, was a gift. There was no proper occasion or celebration, it was simply a very thoughtful gift from her young herbalist of a sister, hoping that the dragon will help her around with her herbs for various spells. Not exactly paying much attention to this dragon's habits and heedless of its backgrounds, she simply let it be, appreciating its affinity to plants as soon as it flourished and grew flowers.

Accepting was quite a mistake, the verdant dragon ended up burrowing into the ground and quickly destroyed a large patch of her garden.

It resulted into a rather hysterical witch, an innately agressive yet flowery dragon, and a chewed batch of grown turnips.
