Ice Dragons are fierce predators who hunt using their extremely cold breath. The breath of an ice dragon can freeze its prey solid in seconds. The body of an ice dragon is so cold that icicles will form along its skin no matter the outside temperature.

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.

Legerdemain is a very persistent dragon—although many of her dragon friends doubted her ability to summon a Guardian of Nature dragon, she continued to try every time when her powers were at their fullest. Despite failing many times, Legerdemain never lost hope. Legerdemain's efforts eventually paid off when she successfully summoned a Guardian of Nature for the first time during the Year of the Dragon, earning her much respect from the dragons who know her.
