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.

Kamikaze, in relation to his name, is a great lover of war strategies. He constantly studies up on famous dragon battles and what sort of attacks that they used, often trying out the attacks on other dragons in order to improve his skills as a clan warrior, or mixing up different chemicals to see if he can make a properly functioning stink bomb (much to the disdain of the dragons he tests them on). While he is prided by the clan for being a well-educated and diligent protector of the cave, he does need to remember that practicing divebombs on your own clanmates is only appropriate when you're a hatchling. When you're a grown warrior of a full-fledged clan, it's not nearly as funny.
