Stone Dragons have a tough outer covering made of a stone-like material. They eat rocks, using the minerals they contain for nourishment and to keep up their stone outer shell. They rarely move, and are the heaviest of all types of dragons. Although they have wings, indicating flight ability, no one has ever seen a stone dragon flying.

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.

Sedred is big, strong, and not very smart.

You can tell this by the way he squints at everything.

He and his mate Pridinth, whom he likes because she is shiny, often spent many hours atop mountains trying to find a teacher for poor Sedred.

They have not figured out that the mountains are painted yet. Nor have they found a teacher that is brave enough to stand a dragon that squints at you right in front of your face constantly.
