Black Dragons are warriors. They are strong and capable in battles of force, but also ample magic users, capable of devastating opponents with their spells. Their bright eyes give them excellent night vision, which is why they generally hunt during the night.

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.

Ridiculous Princess Alt Black is the younger child of the Queen and King. While her brother has made a career in the Guard, Princess Alt prefers to explore the realm of magic. She outpaced her tutors and graduated early, and now she's searching for a more powerful dragon to act as her mentor in the Old Magic. She's studying at the temple under HolyRidiculousBlackDragonBatman for now, since her search has so far been fruitless, but at least she's becoming fluent in the Old Tongue. She's trying to convince her mother to allow her to travel outside of Ahavah in search of a suitable mentor.
