Black Tea Dragons have small scent glands on the underside of their wing arm that release a pleasant scent. Though many creatures enjoy being in the vicinity of Black Tea dragons, the scent is intended to draw in swarms of butterflies. Though Black Tea dragons are full sized dragons, these insects are the mainstay of their diet.

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.

While the primary fare of black tea dragons are the delicate winged butterflies, they can and will eat other bugs as chance allows, as this female can testify. However, her interest in insects stems beyond mere culinary curiosity. A rather wrathful creature, she knows all the tricks of attracting wasps and mosquitoes and biting gnats, and any who dare offend her will soon find a dollop of the appropriate hormone or scent smeared on them when they're not paying attention. Their misery is great, but so is her delight, and she can often be heard chuckling darkly as her wailing targets run to take cover in the nearest pond.
