The Freckled Dragon is a small, cunning breed known for their obsessive hoarding habits. Males and females are visually identical, but one can tell the difference between genders depending on what they collect—males only collect green-colored items, while females only collect red-colored items. Though their wings are too small to sustain flight, these dragons can glide for a short distance. Instead of flying, Freckled Dragons travel by running at swift speeds for long distances. They are typically docile, but can become violent if their treasure is threatened.

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.

Car Johnson exhales pure awesomeness. People are just too jealous to accept it and call him "Weird" or "Jerk" or "Oh no, not that guy again." He wants to be the world's first dragon bard, even though his voice sounds like a cat imitating a dying otter. Car is sure his lyrics will touch all who listen enough that they will ignore the screech in their ears.

His most prized possession is a collection of green painted chicken eggs kept in glass jars. Car has a name for each one and considers them his pets. He even calls them his "Chicken chums." No one else understands the joy of stuffing chicken eggs in glass jars, but Car hopes to change that through his music.

He wrote a song titled "Chicken Eggs Need Love Too" and plans to travel the world, singing his heart out and asking people to join his group The Chicken Egg Appreciation Society. Car doesn't care if the world joins him in painting them green, as long as they join him in the true bliss of chicken egg collecting.
