Nebula Dragons are nocturnal creatures. With the best eyesight to be found, they are often seen staring into space. Each dragon tends to observe a particular nebula and will eventually change their colors and patterns to match it. As the nebula changes over time, the dragon changes with it. The more intricate the design of the nebula, the better chance an individual has of attracting a mate. It is said that the markings on no two Nebula Dragons will be exactly the same.

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.

Christmas Candlelit, more commonly called Chrisie or simply Candlelit, is an upbeat, constantly ecstatic Nebula dragon. Although she is not a Christmas dragon, she pleaded that she could have the word Christmas in her name. She loves the holiday, and spends lots of time around the Christmas dragons. She always 'helps' out, whether it's Christmas or just a normal day. Every Christmas she will be sure to put up the lights-- put them up on her wings, that is. However, Chrisie can be of help. Her high amount of energy helps with catching any of the newly hatched dragons that try to run off. She also can relate to them, therefore she can keep them entertained all day- but, when anyone actually considers that, there's no case where that would be surprising.
