Sunset Dragons are closely related to sunrise dragons. However, their behaviors differ greatly. Sunset Dragons generally live alone or in small packs. They are more active in the evening, hunting and performing all of their daily tasks as the sun sets.

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.

Quindle is a rather bookish dragon, reading whenever she gets the chance and whatever she can get a hold of. Most of her time spent not reading is spent down in the bayou, hunting alligators for their meat and skins. She eats her fill then trades off the unneeded meat, skin, and claws to human traders for books. Not only is Quindle an amazingly fast reader, she can also remember everything that she has every read, down to the very last letter. If you ask her she will copy down any book you ask as long as you give her good enough reading material in return. Though she has wonderful literature knowledge, Quindle's social skills are sorely lacking and she feels uncomfortable around others. In addition to that, Quindle's eyesight is very poor due to reading in the dark and her scrawny body has trouble killing the adult alligators, so she sticks to mostly babies and inexperienced juveniles.
