Nocturne Dragons are a strange breed. Whenever light strikes their bodies, they are frozen in whatever position they were in. This leaves them vulnerable and they rely on camouflage to keep themselves safe. They are often mistaken for statues when in this frozen state, but Nocturne dragons do not actually turn into stone. Rather, they merely idle until the sun goes down. At night, these dragons come to life, proving themselves to be powerful fliers, although little else is known about their true behavior.

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.

ShadowNocturne is a Nocturne Dragon with a great talent for flying. Like all of his species, he rests all day and it up all night flying. Even for one of his kind, he is very talented aerialist. During the early morning and late evening, he teaches the hatchlings of his cave to fly swiftly and safely. He gets along very well with the Sunset Dragons of his cave, since they keep the same hours. His best friend is SleekSunset, a Sunset Dragon hatchling who tries to stay far away from her mother.
