Canopy Dragons love to soar above the tropical jungles and other densely forested areas. Their billowing, layered wings create generous lift that allows them to ascend effortlessly over the warm jungle. While their unique wings do not make them the fastest flyers, they are champion gliders. To further this end, dexterity, maneuverability, and grace are all judged by the females when selecting their mates from the males that can accurately complete the exhausting and elaborate courtship dance between the close growing branches of the upper canopy.

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.

One of the four eggs hatched by an unknown benefactor, and the only male of the bunch. In his early days, he seemed relatively normal -- a daydreamer with a vivid imagination. Tishina grew especially fond of him, and the two even produced a child. Over time, however, his wild daydreams consumed him. He became delusional, calling himself "Aiuz'athrhush" and insisting upon his role as the ruling deity of the forest the clan calls home.

The unusual hatching circumstance of the first four bonds them as a family and a clan, and therefore they feel a responsibility for their unfortunately mad sibling. They long since gave up on bringing his mind back to reality, thus they simply tolerate his delusions and try to care for him. Tishina ensures he eats and rests periodically, and she occasionally follows him at night. Slava usually keeps an eye on him during the day and summons Mat Zemli if the little Canopy Dragon gets himself into too much trouble.
