Glaucus Drakes have curious personalities. They spend more of their time sunbathing and idly floating in the water than exploring. Because they move very little as they float, Glaucus Drakes can ambush prey relatively easily. They can dive to surprisingly deep depths, and eat a variety of fish and marine plants. Most of them live in tight-knit family groups.

Though it may appear at first that dragons and drakes have much in common, the two are completely separate species. Drakes are smaller and less intelligent than their cousin species, though both dragons and drakes sit comfortably near the top of the food chain. They are always found bearing antlers and leathery wings. Drakes share many of the same habitats that dragons do, and typically hunt in packs.

Geleira is a loyal companion to the gemshard hatchling Dasurmaak, a forgetful, chronically absent-minded dragoness. While Geleira can't untangle the worst of her companion's confusions, she does help by preventing actions from being needlessly repeated as long as it is in her power to do so; often, this involves moving items out of Dasurmaak's reach quickly enough. What Geleira does not object to, unsurprisingly, is Dasurmaak forgetting just how much attention she's been showered with—that, of course, can be repeated however frequently as the scatter-brained dragon wishes.
