Holiday dragons are a very mysterious breed. They are only seen during winter, and even then it is hard to catch a glimpse of one. They are responsible for the general cheer that spreads during the holidays. In essence, they are the “Spirits of Winter.”

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.

Hollysoul (named 'soul' because that is closely related to 'Sioux,' which is the French word for holly) will not stand for any dragon in the Towa clan to be without Christmas cheer. He enjoys that day above all others. Every 25th of every month, he is in a much better mood than usual, saying that it's only so and so months 'till Christmas. He is very close to Winterwyte and Mychelle, as they both cared for him when Christmas spirit alone could not.
