Skywing Dragons spend most of their lives flying in the air. They hunt from the air, diving at prey from above, and land only to rest. They are some of the fastest fliers, capable of extremely high speeds. The webbing at the end of the tail acts as a rudder, allowing them to easily change direction during flight.

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.

Much to the dismay of her parents, Gasda showed no interest in the handsome Gaoithean upon growing up. No matter how much he tried to impress her with his muscular body and amazing flying maneuvers, she would not spare a glance for his attempts to charm her and took no heed from her parents' encouragements to take an interest in him. Truth is, her heart lies elsewhere, with the beautiful Sunrise dragon Muire na Greine. Out of fear that her clan will not accept her choice for a dragon of the same gender and a different species, she keeps her heart to herself and her mouth silent. All she wishes for is for the world to become more tolerant so that one day, she will be accepted for who she is.
