Striped Dragons come in a dazzling array of colors complemented by an intricate pattern of stripes. These bright colors and patterns help attract their favorite food, insects. Because their prey is so tiny, striped dragons must spend a large portion of their day eating. The color of the offspring is usually determined by the dragon’s mate.

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.

Disco Stripes can't help it: she loves to party! And the best place to party is at the Quick Wing nightclub. She gets to dance with Sunny Santiago's mobsters, eat exotic foods, and earn money, all at the same time. It is a good gig; well, considering that there are not any opportunities to dance for money legally in Wayside Haven, it is the only gig. However the crime and intrigue attract rather than repulse Disco Stripes. She is thinking of pursuing a relationship with Maurice Dribbler, Sunny's accountant, in order to find out more about life in the gang. Disco Stripes knows Sunny has hired female dragons into his crew before, in fact one is even his bouncer at the club, so she is interested in playing a more active role in his organization. Empress Dark Grizzle and her new police force doesn't scare Disco Stripes. Risking jail time is worth the thrill of doing illegal activities, and not getting caught would mean another opportunity to party!
