Magi Dragons are, as their name suggests, primarily magic users. They rarely use physical forms of attack. They eat anything they can kill, which is almost everything. They won’t kill unprovoked except when hunting, although they may kill humans if in danger. Their strong magic makes them one of the most feared breeds of dragons.

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.

Neville comes from an old pure-bred magi family. His parents and even some of his grandparents have studied under Delirium so naturally the expectations were pretty high when he joined the ranks of her students as well. During his first years of study Neville proved to be extremely nervous and clumsy and almost none of his magic ever worked the way it should. Some of his misfired spells turned the ribbons of Triumphant into deadly snakes, some froze hatchies and he very nearly collapsed a part of the egg chamber once.

After Minerva helped him with the constant pressure of expectations and he found his own strength, Neville turned out to be quite capable with spells and he's determined to make his own destiny.

The effects of the clumsy spell casting of his youth are now mostly erased—except of course for a couple of never-to-grow-up hatchlings, who joined the ranks of Lilltle Vi's gang.
