Mint colored dragons are the most peaceful of all dragons; they only eat plants unless they scavenge meat from an already dead animal. They also have no ways to attack others or defend themselves. They are much smaller than other forms of dragons since they only double in size when they mature. Mint dragons are unable to use magic and cannot fly since they lack wings. Their looks have given rise to the common insult of calling dragons “large lizards.”

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.

Happy Birthday Mint is a painter. Her art tends to be a messy jumble of colors, seemingly slapped blindly across the canvas. That is because it was. Happy Birthday Mint has been blind since birth, but upon hearing about "painters" she wanted to be one. Some thought it impossible that a blind dragon could paint, but there was one mint that believed in her named Paint Splatter. He would set everything up for her. She would dunk the brush into the paint cans and almost smack the canvas, slicing across it in jagged streaks. After a few seconds, Paint Splatter would guide her brush to the water so that she could change colors. The end results were always mixed, and sometimes the colors would clash horribly or make an ugly mix of brown, but other times the paint would create a lovely symphony of color. Paint Splatter would try to sell the best to other dragons. The treasure received would be split between them, as Happy Birthday Mint couldn't do it on her own.
