Neotropical Dragons are a breed that originate in rainforests. They are fun-loving and enjoy lounging on tree branches, eating whatever fruit they find. They are also often found sunning themselves on rocks, using their large wings to soak up the rays. In the summer, males compete for mates by showing off their striped wings and gliding in spirals down the tree trunks. It is said that the larger the wings, the more likely the male will attract a suitable 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.

Verbassa is a happy-go-lucky dragon who enjoys sunbathing with her mate, Bronze Herz 'Anzu' Zephyr. She always teases Anzu about how long his full name is, and in turn he always teases Verbassa about how short her name is.

Although Verbassa may seem endlessly joyous, her past is wrought with sorrow; her first mate, Xyphonius, suddenly disappeared while he was hunting, leaving Verbassa heartbroken and with two hatchlings to protect. To this day, Verbassa is still searching for Xyphonius in the hopes that he is still alive and well.
