With their iridescent wings and sleek gray bodies, Iridichi Dragons are an enchanting sight to behold in the decaying autumnal world. Coming across an Iridichi, or having one approach you, can either be a blessing or a curse; rumor has it, Iridichi Dragons are messengers and anchors for the dead. Their disconcerting white eyes always seem to connect to the spiritual world, and the intimacy of life and death during autumn compels them to seek the deceased. Superstitious folks claim that the magical effects of their wings allow the dead to be seen as well as heard. As a result, travelers seek out Iridichi Dragons during their most active season, claiming they act as a bridge between the living and the dead. Iridichi Dragons have allegedly facilitated hauntings and offered consolation for those departed with unfinished business when a simple message will not suffice.

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.

Ononoku has a bit of an odd problem. He can laugh at almost anything, no matter if it's an unusually shaped bush, a particularly large bird, or a perfectly normal rock on the ground. This sometimes causes trouble for him when he hosts seances, since emotional mourners tend to not appreciate it when their spirit medium starts snickering over the color of a mustache or the way someone ties their shoes. It is quite common to see Ononoku sitting somewhere on his lonesome, cackling to himself, and this has made him fairly unpopular with travelers during the usual autumn haunting season. This suits him just fine, after all, he'd much rather spend time with the hatchlings of the family who are happy to play along with his sense of humor and laugh along with him.
