Ridgewing Dragons live just below the snow level on the upper slopes of mountains. They are a friendly, playful breed and enjoy dancing in wind currents near their homes or plummeting down into valleys from great heights. Their wings, by far their most striking feature, grow in fin-like ridges along their backs. While their bodies lack markings to blend better with their surroundings, a ridgewing’s wings have bright markings in the colors of the flowers that grow in their mountain habitat. Occasionally different-colored individuals can be found, but they are rare because their striking coloring offers little protection.

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.

Jirachia is an excitable Ridgewing Dragon. She came to the island after being neglected by a human, and was raised by Kelasia.

Jirachia is energetic and loves to collect flowers. She is always up on the mountainsides playing in meadows or recording the native flower growth.  A smart and clever dragon, she is adept at avoiding Kelasia's eye when she is playing around. She would most likely be scolded for being up so high on the cliffside alone, but she manages to evade being discovered.

Even though she is an adult, she still has a very hatchling-like nature. One of her best friends is Lyeelia, and the two of them often play together on the mountains.
