Balloon Dragons are so named because they are filled with a gas that makes them almost lighter than air, similar to balloons. However, they are not prone to bursting, as they are covered in tough skin and can deflate themselves if necessary. In addition, they generally are slow moving. They use their gas bladders to float to the tops of trees, where food is more abundant. They can shift their weight from their backs to their fronts, allowing them to reach leaves and fruit.

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.

This dragon is in every way classy. She hails from a most noble and exalted family. She knows the correct way to use all the various types of forks. She thinks hats topped with stuffed birds are all the rage. And yet no matter how poised and proper she is, those who see her can only ever laugh and laugh at her "bubble gut!" Outraged to the maximum by these disrespectful peasants, she attempts to chase after them and teach them some manners, but inevitably a strong breeze lifts her away and foils her plans.
