Guardian Dragons have large shields on the end of their tails. Although the shields appear to be heavy, they are light, yet nearly unbreakable. Guardian Dragons use their tail-shields, as well as their wings, to deflect attacks and protect others. Often, they will guard the eggs and hatchlings of a nest while others are away. They are generally peaceful, and will not retaliate unless necessary. They have no need to forage or hunt, as they are fed by those they protect.

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.

Kelandirk has been a great protector of his family for a long time. He was born among many family members. His mother Kirtha was a wonderful loving being with a heart as big as she was. His sister Riva, whom always picked on him as a hatchling never thinking he would be strong enough to protect the family. His father Hirkal, whom trained him to be the great protector he is. His sister Yula, who stood at his side in every adventure. And finally his sister Selari, who was always so weak as a child. Unfortunately, an accident as hatchlings took his sister Riva from them all. So now he is sworn to forever to protect his sisters from harm.
