Feisty and energetic, Whiptail Dragons pride themselves on their speed and agility. It is not unusual to see several whiptails racing each other. Though fragile, they can easily evade attacks with their superior speed, and often use their long tails as a weapon, giving rise to their name.

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.

Nick is a rather quiet dragon. He's always the last one to notice when someone walks in the room. If someone decides to do something fun, he's always the one sitting in the corner, knowing he doesn't fit in with the others. One of the only things he enjoys is acting wild when no one's looking. It appears that he decides he wants to be alone, because no one really understands what type of personality lies under his scales.
