Stone Dragons have a tough outer covering made of a stone-like material. They eat rocks, using the minerals they contain for nourishment and to keep up their stone outer shell. They rarely move, and are the heaviest of all types of dragons. Although they have wings, indicating flight ability, no one has ever seen a stone dragon flying.

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.

Some say that the statue in front of the temple is just that, a statue; others swear that, on cool nights when the breeze is blowing from the sea, they've sworn they have seen the colossal thing move, the head creaking downwards, snapping up the offerings of meat and drink left on the steps. But others argue, and naturally enough, this leads to a group assembling to decide. They poke the statue, and scratch at the corroded scales, as rain-worn and cracked as any real sculpture. They wave their arms and yell and kick the monstrous stony feet. But the silent sentinel does nothing, and with this debate thus resolved, the satisfied winners-and disgruntled losers-soon turn to arguing over whether that strange plant on the edge of Miss Carol's property is really a plant, at all... but then the reports of the statue moving will no doubt crop up again and restart the argument, as if the thing doesn't want them to go poking around that plant, almost as if it knows better...
