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.

All That Glitters is a very handsome dragon. He is quite vain, and very proud of being one of Crystal's favourite dragons. However he is very friendly and fatherly, and can easily take and make a joke. He is always happy-go-lucky, with not much seeming to faze him.
