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.

Mahfuz, also known as Fuz or Fuzzy, is a very shy, timid being who prefers to be outside even in the coldest weather. After being captured and taken into a lab when he was about fifteen years old, he has never raised his voice nor struck another. He hides his throat constantly, masking a branded tattoo of 001 left over from his days as a lab experiment. His brothers Lycurgus and Raghu are large beings who are to be feared and obeyed, or so he thinks. Donovan, his brother-love, is kind to him and has stuck with him when Gus and Raghu banished him to the nexus. Irish looks out for him, and even forced him to stand up for himself one night, against her. He is often found carving or molding nature into designs and pictures.
