Holiday dragons are a very mysterious breed. They are only seen during winter, and even then it is hard to catch a glimpse of one. They are responsible for the general cheer that spreads during the holidays. In essence, they are the “Spirits of Winter.”

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.

Rose-Winged is one of the scribes for the Flaxseed Ridge Holiday Dragons. Whenever she has to write "Flaxseed Ridge", she scoffs. She's pretty sure the group was named on a lark because there is no flax in the area and all linseed and linen products come to the territory via trading. That's nitpicking and Rose-Winged is very glad to have a home here; she was a newcomer about 30 years ago, having fled disaster and an even worse dictatorship. Her ability to read, speak, and write in a dozen languages was seen as grounds for execution, so she was quite happy to find out the dragons of the much more peaceful Flaxseed Ridge were happy to have another scribe in their ranks.
