Frilled Dragons are smaller than most other breeds, but when threatened, they stretch out their wings and frills to appear larger. They generally do not like to fight and prefer hiding to confrontation. Frilled dragons live in small groups and often band together to scare off potential threats. Males also use their frills as a way to attract mates, with those displaying the “best” frills being more likely to breed.

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.

Behold, seeker of the dragon lore, Desirar of the frilled dragons. Small even for her kindred, she can hardly be observed by scholars as she seeks cover as soon as the slightest noise is heard that does not belong to the voices of the forest. She uses her frills not to frighten off creatures but to blend into the forest background, thus preying on careless beings that wander near her maw at neck's length. Therefore, wanderer, be careful still when passing through her forest—there might be death waiting between the trees and bushes, unseen and unheard.
