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.

Clotheshorse isn't a horse, but he is called one anyway because apparently the other dragons in Kilo Tory 5 have never seen a deer before. Most of them don't wear clothes, but the ones who do hang their articles on the mild-mannered Clotheshorse, since he is too polite or timid (or lazy, even) to protest. He certainly doesn't look like someone who could fight his way out of a pile of leaves. Reportedly, he enjoys wearing people's things when they aren't using them, saying the more colorful the better. His fashion sense must be as gaudy and loud as his stripes. People in Kilo Tories 1-7 mockingly call any thin, clothes-holding object a "clotheshorse" after this guy.
