Deep Sea Dragons, as their name suggests, spend most of their time in the darkest depths of the sea. They have a bioluminescent dorsal spine that serves to attract prey and communicate with their own kind. As with many deep sea animals, they generally eat whatever they can manage to bait. They rarely leave the ocean floor, surfacing only during breeding season. When they do choose to travel to the shallower depths, they avoid bright lights and will only come up far away from shore.

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.

Gaea Endur has little contact with the rest of the world, or even her clan Endur. She is one of the ancient Elders that was with Isis Endur when she founded the guardian clan of Endur. Gaea makes her home deep in the sea where she listens to the whispering of the current that brings her news. She rises to the surface only in times of great urgency, and even then she refuses to talk to anyone but one of the ancient ones or Isis herself. Gaea is very wise, and if you need great help, she is the dragon to go to. Whether or not she will talk to you is a different matter. Only Gaea knows who she will deign to talk to at all.
