Shallow Water Dragons are found in tropical regions where the water is warm. They use their magic to hunt, using bubbles to capture small fish and animals. Their large, webbed feet make them excellent swimmers and they are able to move at very high speeds. Due to their bright color, these dragons are easily spotted in the lagoons where they live.

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.

Swimsun knows how to swim gracefully, but she is not very proficient in swimming quickly. This is the reason why her ancestors are not very proud of her. As a result, she often shuts herself off by hiding in her favorite hiding spot, and no one knows about it. Her happy-go-lucky attitude makes many people smile, besides her own parents and grandparents, who constantly yell at her.
