Waterhorse Dragons received their name due to their horse-like physique and endearing behavior. They are capable of surviving out of water, and when on land their skin secretes a gelatinous goo to retain moisture. However, their large paddle feet are better suited for swimming, and waterhorse dragons tend to move very awkwardly when on land. Waterhorses are very friendly dragons and enjoy playing with humans.

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.

Siraka was a dragon that received no attention as a child. Because of the way she was treated, she became almost dangerous. Tsalomos calmed her down and gently taught her how to be happy that the Dragon World is still within the island, and that the Natural World is still in balance. Siraka became a very trusting friend to Tsalomos, acting out as a guardian. Though Siraka is very loyal, she can be rude and unkind when she feels like it. She is very different from her kind. It was even merely a fact that Waterhorses could be mean. Siraka of course sees the world different than others would, often stating that death is most serious part about life. Even though Siraka has a variety of personalities, she is not blunt and dislikes to be called it.
