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.

Morrolan is a proud and easy to anger magi dragon. He has been known to get into fights with other dragons of Herk's clan over trivialities and imagined slights and he doesn't care if he battles a hellfire wyvern, one of the blacks or another magi. On the other hand Morrolan is also very generous and holds himself to a high code of honour, never mistreating a mint, standing by the sanctity of hospitality and being loyal to a fault.

Most dragons judge Morrolan as short-tempered and rash, but those that know him better, know that he is cleverer than he lets on—even learning schools of magic from other species of dragons, that some magis think of as 'lesser'.

His biggest role model and best friend is Adron the father of his own mate Kiera.
