Striped Dragons come in a dazzling array of colors complemented by an intricate pattern of stripes. These bright colors and patterns help attract their favorite food, insects. Because their prey is so tiny, striped dragons must spend a large portion of their day eating. The color of the offspring is usually determined by the dragon’s mate.

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.

Scihn was always a troublemaker. He would always sneak into dragons' sleeping caves, stealing and breaking anything unguarded. He did this for many months until he snuck into the White dragons' medical cave. He was snatching many things, causing him to hyperventilate because of how fast he was moving. He then broke some potions, startling him and knocking others down to break. The potions formed a gas, and Scihn's breathing caught the chemicals. The after effects caused many things to happen, including every move he made go in slow motion. He also left a trail of his own blur everywhere he went, so he can confuse people with these duplicate images. There were also many other effects, like razor thin claws, but all were in a smaller scale than these. Scihn also has a tough time talking to others, as his senses and thoughts were slowed, too. This slowed down lifestyle has allowed Scihn to become extremely smart and stop his life of crime.
