Silver Dragons are arguably one of the most beautiful types of dragons. They live in high altitude habitats such as mountains. Male Silvers hunt and eat meat. While not as beautiful or radiant as females, silver males possess better physical attributes, such as strength.

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.

A violent snow storm was hitting the large mountain range at DNH's Dragon Reserve but Shai didn't seem to mind it. Like a river, he rippled through the winds and snowflakes, cutting through them like an eel. As he was flying dangerously across the spiky stones and treacherous ice along the cannon, he saw something. A human and two dragons, lost and about to freeze to death. The girl was trying to move one of the bright breasted wyverns, but he seemed to have given up. Shai doubted for a moment, he was elusive and mysterious, since most of his specie had been hunted nearly to extinction in past ages, but he couldn't just let those three die. After making up his mind, the silver dragon descended and surrounded the trio with his body, conjuring a magic shield to keep them warm. The girl looked up, and her eyes shone with wonder.

"I thought you were a legend," she whispered weakly.

"We are," he responded gently into her mind, a silent plead to never reveal their existence to anyone.
