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.

Lunelyde could easily be described as the babysitter that somehow goes from ditzy to berserk when the kids are in danger.  She's generally playful and gentle with the little ones, often seen with several hatchlings in tow, looking just like a mother goose with her goslings.  The moment that they are threatened, however, Lunelyde does not simply use her tail as defense, but stabs violently with the sharp edges.  There's enough force behind this maneuver to slice an elephant-sized boulder in two.

Abandoned herself at a young age, Lunelyde is particularly fond of orphaned hatchlings, acting as a stand-in mother in addition to her regular duties.
