Ultraviolet Dragons are a heat-loving breed that are most commonly found in hot, arid environments. These hardy dragons are omnivorous and will eat both plant and animal matter, even species with thorny physical defenses such as cacti. They are generally peaceful and often quite friendly, but males will become aggressive and cantankerous during the breeding season. Intense fights take place over females, sometimes resulting in injury for both combatants.

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.

Adellia grew up dolled over by her parents. To them, as their only successful egg, she was the center of the world. At a young age Adellia believed she must be a princess from the large amount of treasure she grew up with, which was a result of her parents' lives of collecting. Due to the delicacy her parents took with her Adellia was never had to hunt, fight, or anything customary of dragon life. Instead her parents would do all this and more for her, bring home lavish gifts for her own growing hoard. This made Adellia grow up with a feeling of self importance leading her to boss other hatchlings around or consider them beneath her, she ultimately made few friends. This situation only got worse when she reached maturity. Instead of going out with all the other young dragons to try to meet a mate she was determined to wait and let one come to her, which didn't work. She still has yet to find a mate or break her stubborn self-entitlement though it begins to worry her parents.
