Diamondwing Dragons are named for the myriad tiny scales that grow on their wing membranes, lending them a faceted, lustrous appearance. These meticulous creatures will spend months ranging far and wide to collect the shiniest trinkets and gemstones to adorn their nests. Once his nest is complete, a male Diamondwing will perform an elaborate aerial dance hoping to impress potential mates with his beauty and prowess.

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.

Drogoen is being trained by Baleryn to take over the colony guard some day. Like Baleryn, Drogoen is also one of King Sunfyr's close advisors. Drogoen collects valuable items in his spare time and guards his collection jealously. However, if the colony is in dire need of trinkets to trade, Drogoen could be convinced to give up some of his trinkets, but only if King Sunfyr himself begs him. Young Drogoen looks forward to having lots of children someday and caring for them infinitely more than he cares for his trinkets. Drogoen has a sister named Vermithore.
