Balloon Dragons are so named because they are filled with a gas that makes them almost lighter than air, similar to balloons. However, they are not prone to bursting, as they are covered in tough skin and can deflate themselves if necessary. In addition, they generally are slow moving. They use their gas bladders to float to the tops of trees, where food is more abundant. They can shift their weight from their backs to their fronts, allowing them to reach leaves and fruit.

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.

BerryBody is just as hungry as his parents only he relishes in trying new things. He loves everything new and wants to try every type of food he can. Because of his love of the new and unfamiliar his mate is totally different from him. He eats all day and never stops to rest. When it is nighttime he has to finish at least ten more pieces of food before he is satisfied and can sleep. Even though he loves to eat he is not as selfish as his dad and will stop to help someone in need if he feels that they really need him. If he is not convinced then he merely tells them where his mate is and assures them that she will help, which of course, she will.
