Shadow Walkers are a strange breed that possess the ability to slip between the planes of reality, becoming immaterial. This allows them to hide in the shadows, either hunting from the concealment of near invisibility or evading enemies. Though they become corporeal to mate or to eat, they spend most of the rest of their lives walking in the shadows. Shadow Walkers are wary creatures, though on dark autumn evenings when the leaves fall to swirl in the chill, rain damp air, they may be seen drifting out from the shadows.

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.

Also known as Bivnix. His existence is questionable; his mate even doubts that he is real, only making himself visible twice a year. Bivnix resides near a large lake, where he is exactly is unknown. The people that once lived in the now abandoned place may never have even knew that this dragon walked among them. Only by concentrating hard enough on the surface of the lake one may be lucky enough to see Bivnix's outline, darkened against the dense fog shrouding the water. Legend has it that he once lead a lost sea-goer across the lake, to the other side, but as the person turned to thank the dragon, Bivnix vanished.
