Shadow Walkers are a strange breed that possess the ability to slip between the planes of reality, becoming immaterial. This allows them to hide in the shadows, either hunting from the concealment of near invisibility or evading enemies. Though they become corporeal to mate or to eat, they spend most of the rest of their lives walking in the shadows. Shadow Walkers are wary creatures, though on dark autumn evenings when the leaves fall to swirl in the chill, rain damp air, they may be seen drifting out from the shadows.

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.

She was never accepted,

always rejected,

for being different from the rest,

and as a result she grew bitter,

and ran away sadly...

for many years she lived,

away from them all,

her life was peaceful,

but then it began to fall...

The dragons grew restless,

they had many unfortunes,

they often grew senseless,

the outcasts they blamed!

They went to the caves,

of the ones forced to leave,

the outcasts and the different,

the cowardly and the brave,

it didn't matter to the dragons,

they wanted someone to blame,

So they rounded up them all,

and called them thieves and knaves!

This gave them an excuse to do,

what they had wanted to,

and that was to burn these dragons at stake,

nobody cared that their reasons were fake!

And so many innocents died,

killed because they were different,

and many, many passed away,

their bodies charred and fried!

But she, the dragon, was different,

she refused to go quietly,

and so she rounded up the spirits of the outcasts,

and lead them away to be happy and free!
