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.

Silvan is a powerful dragon who has led a group of dragons for a very long time. He is a capable leader but he knows that is real strength is knowing when to delegate. Silvan has a team under him that makes the majority of the decisions for the group. However, it is Silvan who has the final word and Silvan who recognized their talents in the first place. And it is Silvan who holds the group together.
