Magi Dragons are, as their name suggests, primarily magic users. They rarely use physical forms of attack. They eat anything they can kill, which is almost everything. They won’t kill unprovoked except when hunting, although they may kill humans if in danger. Their strong magic makes them one of the most feared breeds of dragons.

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.

Seslin is quite charming, though he's no prince. He might not be the heroic figure of fairy tales, but he's kind, considerate, and respectful. Seslin was caught up in Gykendi's wish for a fairy tale life, quite against his will, but was practical enough to face his trials and compassionate enough not to blame Gykendi for her incautious wish. Gykendi could have done far worse, and she's wise enough to admit it.
