Storm Dragons are the masters of the skies. They are excellent fliers and land only to rest and eat. In addition, they have full control of the weather. They are very hot-tempered and easily angered. They will attack any human that bothers them, conjuring strong winds and dangerous lightning.

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.

Skormaress is the guardian dragon of the mysterious FireDragon's small "kingdom" (it is barely large enough to call a kingdom, consisting only of a few caves, a couple meadows, a coast, and a forest), being the firstborn of that nation. The mighty storm dragoness protects her fellow dragons with lightning.

She is impish and clever, perhaps too much so. She has a scar across her left eye from a mishap that occurred during one of her adventures.
