Desipis Dragons are an extremely dangerous breed, synonymous with the paths of desolation they leave in their wakes. These gargantuan beasts are infamous for their innate ability to control and manipulate the minds of others, which they use to pulverize the sanities of their foes and forge false memories. This power is especially effective on the foolish, and only the strongest-willed individuals have been known to resist a Desipis’s cunning. Most who anger Desipises do not live to tell the tale. Desipis Dragons are especially feared for their uncanny power of absorbing the magic of others with the fire they breathe and converting it into the bright reserves of crystallized mana that decorate their bodies.

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.

Tomurau never particularly liked spending time hunting for her meals, so whenever she notices that the prey in her current territory is becoming sparse, she goes on a quick "vacation" to the nearest castle. While she does find it quite fun to simply manipulate the minds of the local king's huntsmen to convince them to bring her several prize deer, sometimes she will mind-control the castle staff into laying out a feast for her on the castle doorstep. On occasion the court knights may try to intervene, but Tomurau just hypnotizes them into performing theatrical routines while she eats.
