Ridgewing Dragons live just below the snow level on the upper slopes of mountains. They are a friendly, playful breed and enjoy dancing in wind currents near their homes or plummeting down into valleys from great heights. Their wings, by far their most striking feature, grow in fin-like ridges along their backs. While their bodies lack markings to blend better with their surroundings, a ridgewing’s wings have bright markings in the colors of the flowers that grow in their mountain habitat. Occasionally different-colored individuals can be found, but they are rare because their striking coloring offers little protection.

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.

Arrogance in Temperament is one of Phoenix's dragons. True to her name, Temperament is a flashy dragon who spends most of her time trying to look pretty, and she stands a rival to Vyra and Frillpounce; the three of them spend plenty of time bickering with one another over who is the most attractive. She loves being flattered and she's very childish. She will strut about proudly, flashing the fins on her back. Her mate is Casting Colors, a wrapping paper dragon, and they make a very beautiful pair.
