Silver Dragons are arguably one of the most beautiful types of dragons. They live in high altitude habitats such as mountains. Male Silvers hunt and eat meat. While not as beautiful or radiant as females, silver males possess better physical attributes, such as strength.

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.

Emphatic Silver-Thorn loves fine fabrics and runs a formalwear boutique in Lloyprij. He has bots after bolts of silks and dragon cashmere on hand so he can select the perfect colours for anyone, any time, based on the customer's age and the season they intend to wear the garment. He also gives lessons in sash-tying and the meanings of various knots. He wears the same sort of clothes he sells and is always dressed to the nines—hence his nickname, "the Kimono Dragon".
