When Water Dragons mature, they lose the ability to survive on land, entering the water permanently. They are adept swimmers and eat whatever fish are in the lake they live in. They tend to inhabit the same lake for their entire lives, although a few live in the ocean and swim all over the world.

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.

Flameshe is known for her ego. She is lovely in appearance and has a voice that many, including herself, find beautiful. There is nothing more that she hates than being pestered, but she will sing when asked, if she feels she has been asked politely enough and if she receives enough compliments and praise. Her songs are as long as they are beautiful, often lasting for several hours. Anyone who interrupts them is met with angry snapping and a cold shoulder; it is best to let her finish, or else sneak away while she is enamored with her own voice.
