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.

Golden Slash grew up with Ambered Leaf, Dark Aquamarine, and Impeccable Frost. The easiest way to describe him is by saying that he's a basic fairy tale knight, and his mate, Sanded Clouds, is his princess. He's not afraid of anything as far as Polarg knows, not even Blackened Midnight's wrath at him for causing trouble! He always does what he knows to be right, even if that means dealing with the leader of the dragons.
