Mint colored dragons are the most peaceful of all dragons; they only eat plants unless they scavenge meat from an already dead animal. They also have no ways to attack others or defend themselves. They are much smaller than other forms of dragons since they only double in size when they mature. Mint dragons are unable to use magic and cannot fly since they lack wings. Their looks have given rise to the common insult of calling dragons “large lizards.”

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.

Maka Isk is a very self-centered dragon. He is conceited to the point of thinking that the whole world revolves around him, and that the other dragons should treat him like a king. He doesn't understand that when the other dragons look away, they aren't showing respect, they are showing contempt. Not many dragons can stand to be around him for long, because he talks about how much better than everyone else he is. Even his mate, Achuak Caesin, can't stay around him for too long. When Maka Isk is by himself, he sits by a nearby well and stares admiringly at his reflection, wishing that the whole world could see that he's so handsome.
