This breed of dragon results from eggs or hatchlings that have been neglected. They are usually rebellious, not obeying their masters, sometimes even attacking them. However, their neglect as a hatchling leaves them crippled, and they are weak compared to other breeds, causing them to stay with their masters for 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.

Griever hangs constantly around the 'nest' section of the clan's land where the young are raised. She isn't good for much else, being such a sickly dragon. Unfortunately, her presence is not always welcomed by the parents of said young due to her frightening appearance. So the human clan leader appointed Griever to the task of caring for the eggs that came from the abandoned area of the cave. Griever takes her job very seriously, caring for them as if they were her own children, something she will never have.
