Guardian Dragons have large shields on the end of their tails. Although the shields appear to be heavy, they are light, yet nearly unbreakable. Guardian Dragons use their tail-shields, as well as their wings, to deflect attacks and protect others. Often, they will guard the eggs and hatchlings of a nest while others are away. They are generally peaceful, and will not retaliate unless necessary. They have no need to forage or hunt, as they are fed by those they protect.

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.

Guardian of the Helpless lives up to her name. Despite being complete opposites, her mate is The Provoked Storm. She is persistent and stubborn, but loyal and strong. She isn't afraid to growl in someone's face or threaten them, so she stays clear of the hatchlings. She is afraid that Black Hole Heart will turn traitor on them, and has a clear dislike for him. She often feuds with Magical Mistress when concerning him, and the two are as alike as day and night.
