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.

Ashtolken is much like a caretaker of all the dragons. One of the first in her Scroll, she builds nests for eggs and hatchlings and is a great helper for adult dragons if they have any errands that they may need finished. She has a small truce for mice, and sometimes speaks with them and made sure everyone promised never to prey on mice, and that they are her very good friend. She often speaks of "Harret", who the Scroll dragons think is her "mice friend".
