Amarignis Dragons are benign creatures, known for the brilliant flames veiling their backs. These flames are a manifestation of positive emotions present both within the dragon and in minds of those in their territory. Those with the most radiant flames are seen as the most beautiful—consequently, assuring happiness in their territory is a priority for an Amarignis, through a variety of means such as charming ballads, gifts and aid. As creatures with a fiery disposition (and perhaps a touch of vanity) adults compete with each other for territory to enhance their looks. While this can be achieved through conventional means like aggression, most charges of an Amarignis do not take well to a foreign Amarignis fighting the dragon that is so kind to them. Thus, to augment their allure, individuals gain territory from each other in a game of out-charming their inhabitants to gain their favor and positive energy. A settlement with a fervent Amarignis is a sign of happiness and well-being.

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.

Why yes, Sorrow's name is rather strange for an Amarignis, but it is not inaccurate. Sorrow grew up in a dreadful place devoid of happiness. It was a land terrorized frequently by powerful dragons, where survival was the one concern for all the unlucky residents. As such, Sorrow has been stunted for most of her life, not producing a single ember for many years. Only now that she has become a part  of a loving community can she finally shine like her breed should. She is not used to her fire, even now. Occassionally, she will panic at the sight of it, thinking she is burning, but she quickly simmers down when she realizes it's harmless to her. Sorrow seeks to keep her fires burning by caring for those of her new community. She is rather quiet and shy, having to hide for a good chunk of her life, but she is slowly coming out of her shell.
