Swallowtail Dragons are graceful and quick flyers, much like their namesake bird. They are capable of precise aerial acrobatics, and can reach very high altitudes. Because of this, humans observing these dragons are often astonished at how large they are when confronted up close. A Swallowtail’s diet consists of insects and small mammals plentiful in temperate forests. These dragons are also made remarkable by their paper-thin wing membranes, which allow light to pass through, creating an astonishing effect on starry nights.

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 mate of the Mighty Warrior Moroleth, Clearhide is the scout of the clan of Oz. In her years as a young hatchling she was always the quiet one, only talking once or twice to the other dragons in the clan. It wasn't until Zevron introduced her to another hatchling and the two became best of friends until time took its course. Since that day Clearhide has had no regrets and her child Nepr is proof of Moroleth and Clearhide's long history.
