Horse Dragons have equine-shaped bodies and hooves instead of claws, which allow them to be fast runners. They specialize in running takeoffs, which are quicker than taking off from a stand-still. Horse dragons are able to stalk their prey from the ground then quickly execute an aerial attack for the kill.

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.

Equus Alae was one of Raayven's first. She knew this. She's seen dragons come and go, but she's lasted through. Her preferred past time was running, though she could take flight at a moments thought. Often, she was used as Raayven's transportation to the caves, to pick up new 'siblings' as she called them.

Equus has seen Raayven's 'collection' grow, from a few to enough to inhabit a small valley, but takes each in turn, save for the Vampire Raayven seems to adore. Often, Equus would be found trying to guard the eggs, so the parents, or Egg sitters could go hunt for themselves.

There's only been one other that has seen through the seasons. When she's not running, guarding, or being used as transportation, she's often seen sitting at the edge of the water, contently relaxing with her aquatic 'brother'.
