Dark Lumina Dragons received their names from their highly reflective scales, which—at times—seem to glow. They are vain, always strutting about and preening incessantly; if one of their scales has so much as a scratch or a defect, they’ll remove it. Luckily, their scales grow back quickly, and each new growth is more beautiful than the last. These narcissistic dragons live in small groups and prefer to surround themselves with beauty. The males guard their territory and eggs while the females search for meat to eat. Dark Lumina Dragons are much meaner than their cousins.

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.

This dragon's previous name was wiped from the records after she committed a Particularly Heinous Deed: scribbling "uggly dullerd" on a neighbor's cave with the blood of his greatest enemy (in this case, a raccoon that had been in his stash). For the dishonorable act of spelling carelessly, the council leaders revoked her 34-syllable name and replaced it with a seemingly random string of letters. To this day, she is not sorry because the punishment was totally worth seeing the look on that guy's dumb face.
