Coastal Waverunners spend most of their time skimming the waves along the coast, snatching up their prey from the shallow waters. They have developed markings along the leading edges of their body that help disguise them as breaking waves. When they are not hunting, they enjoy playing among sand-dunes and shallow tide-pools. These dragons live in small but noisy rookeries. Some stories say Waverunners can fly for days on end without landing.

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.

Mekesia is good and soft-spoken. She is nurturing to small hatchlings, and that is probably the reason she teaches a small class of several hatchlings how to hunt.

She loves the forestry outside Laukor Cave and, although she's better suited for the oceans, prefers the taste of forest animals to fish.

Because of how she was raised, she has seldom visited the sea. Although, she does spend a lot of time by the underground lakes in Laukor.
