Gold dragons are the ones most often killed by humans, who consider their scales to be extremely valuable. These golden scales grant them a high level of protection, similar to armor, and they use this to their advantage in battle.

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.

Marcus was born in the Black Sheep Palace, a clan full of nobles and high-class warriors. He was a respected Gold, but just several words from the Highest Priest sealed his life as a sacrifice to Gods. Confident in his friends and his own strength, he refused his fate and fought back. However, even his closet friends turned away and after a savage battle, Marcus managed to escape to the Dark Sun half-dead.

With the power of his lineage, Marcus has now become one of the four vice leaders in his new clan. However, the fame and love he receives can't heal his heart. He doesn't live in caves like other dragons. Every night he lies down in the grass alone, unable to forget, unable to trust. Revenge writhes in his dream, sharp as the tip of a human sword and hot as the sun in a summer day. His firm sense of responsibility doesn't allow him to put his clan in danger and go full war with the Black Sheep; however, his claws have soaked in the blood of those despicable nobles for many times.
