Cassare Dragons are known for their magic-deadening abilities. Though not a conscious ability, a large field surrounds the dragon through which magic is passively nullified. This field is strongest near the dragon itself, and falls off with distance. The absence of magic often makes other creatures avoid them, though some will have the opposite reaction and seek refuge instead. It has also caused them to be hunted, as though the field is severely weakened once dead, their bones and scales retain some of the effect. Possessing such an item is considered a necessity by those who expect to face hostile magic.

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.

The Hellfire Circle was a small circle of dragons that Demigon can call his friends. It was meant for the survival of the fittest, for those capable of surviving on their own to have the chance to live among allies, and there were none in the circle more willing to support this ideal than Mafiric. Just and judgemental, she wishes to give champions of the volcano the prize of friendship. For it was friendship alone that had allowed her to survive among the hot springs of the volcano region.
