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.

Despite her natural timidity, Badhelo continues to nurse her lifelong dream of one day becoming a world-renowned inspirational speaker. She hones her skills daily by addressing her nest every evening before she goes to sleep; she finds it difficult not to balk when faced with an audience any larger than that, but claims she is working on it. When Badhelo's friends are feeling down, she regularly tries to cheer them up using phrases like "never miss an opportunity" and "carpe diem", normally after having spent most of her own day hidden behind a rock for fear of disturbing other dragons in the area.
