Sunstone Dragons are named after the orb on their tails, which resembles the gem of the same name. Their social structure resembles a lion pride, with one dominant male and several females banded together with their young. They prefer arid climates where they can blend in and dig for minerals and gemstones that they not only collect, but eat. The more gems they consume, the larger their tail stone grows. They are an aggressive breed; it is not uncommon to see two males battling for mates and territory.

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.

Glassblaseren is a dragon who, like his fellow Sunstone dragons, can be rather agressive and will clash badly with males of the same species. However, instead of settling down, he has a penchant for wandering. This wandering caught the attention of Co'Pper who was aggressive and hesitant in the beginning, but formed a deeper bond with him later. This bond lasted, but Glassblaseren felt he had to continue his wander, so they separated. There is no real motive behind the wandering other than the need to move, explore and discover. During his wandering, he has met many other dragons. He tries to learn their ways if they are willing to teach him. Therefore, he also has a lot of knowledge about other dragons that he uses to his advantage. Perhaps with age he will feel satisfied with the knowledge he's gathered, and settle down with a few females of his own species.
