Melismor Dragons are social, good-natured dragons that enjoy the shelter of forested areas. They live in close-knit family groups, burrowing deep into the earth and creating extensive, winding networks of underground burrows. While rarely seen at the surface, Melismor Dragons, when encountered, are known to be fiercely loyal and protective, yet kind when their families aren’t in any danger. These dragons are omnivorous, but most of their diet consists of plants, especially tender roots, and honey is a favored treat they’ll often bring back to their burrows to share.

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.

More Slim is known in the Clan Yankee Y-tunnel formation as the most sarcastic member but rather nice once one gets to know him, but one has to really make an effort to get to know him. He's one of the part-time "theater studiers" in Clan Yankee and the greater area. To him, coming up with the exact phrasing in his speech and writing is an art form, though to most, he only uses that skill to insult people. He does enjoy throwing snide remarks in someone's face, though he has a way of putting up an inoffensive front—lowered ears, soft tone, and carefully picked words—so half his jabs go unnoticed until long enough time has passed and finally sending a comeback to him is just seen as awkward. More Slim seems to save his meanest snipes for his immediate family and longtime friends, but that is because he already has close ties with them, and unlike the things he says to strangers, behind his pointed criticism is a wish for them to better themselves.
