Equinox Dragons are a highly vocal, migratory breed, easy to find when they are traveling through an area and incredibly scarce otherwise. They are extremely skilled at following dates and times based off the movement of the sun and the moons, and follow their lengthy migration routes like clockwork. Large flocks of Equinoxes can darken the skies, and their calls, which sound like eerie flutes, can be heard from a great distance. Equinoxes are very social, and hatchlings are cared for communally by the entire group—it’s rare to see a solitary Equinox, and any stragglers who don’t have a flock will often attempt to join groups of other breeds of dragon.

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.

Wandering Cat first met Thornpaw when the white dragon was wandering the world and searching in vain for something familiar. There wasn't much that Wandering Cat could do at the time, as migration was well underway, but she swore to find Thornpaw again when she was next in the area. By the time she tracked Thornpaw down again, Thornpaw had joined up with the Unicorn Mage's traveling group, so Wandering Cat appointed herself an honorary member. In her role as general morale-booster, Wandering Cat picks up fun stories and bits of good news on her travels, then shares them with Thornpaw and the others when their paths cross.
