Golden Wyverns are known for their beautiful metallic scales and rumored magical abilities. Living high in the mountains, these dragons do not believe in killing for sport or pleasure. They will hunt only when hungry and defend themselves when provoked, but will avoid killing to the best of their abilities. Golden Wyverns often mingle with other dragons of similar color and take pride in their shimmering hide.

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.

Despite being one of the oldest and strongest members of the pack, Black has gladly submitted to Aurican's leadership. He is not a fool and won't lie to himself, there is a certain envy he feels towards his just and noble leader and that pride inside him impulses him to challenge Aurican for his position. However, he fights it, every single day, and follows without letting his true, dark feelings show. It is not cowardice, Black knows the old dragon is no match for his strength, but that is not the reason why he keeps his envy and desires under control.

It is Aurican's wisdom and justice that he so much admires, and Black knows that is far more important for the well being of the pack than his strength and courage. At the end of the day, he is all but brute force and little brains. That helps the group by protecting them from threats and aiding during hunts, but they will never follow him for that alone. Knowledge and wisdom are as valuable, if not more, and he knows that.
