Copper Dragons are masters of stealth, slipping silently and swiftly through the forests and jungles where they live. Often hunting in groups, their prey rarely know they are being stalked until the dragon’s at their throat. In the air they are agile and skilled. Copper Dragons prize family groups, spending large amounts of time teaching their young skills. So great is their love of life and family that they will sometimes adopt orphaned dragons of other breeds to raise.

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.

Although he was only a few years her elder--a span of nothing in the eyes of a dragon--he acted about a few millennia more mature. Born to a house of coppers who had since time forgotten served a family of seafaring shimmerscales, he became the servant of the fiery Tetra at a very young age, constantly following her around, decrying her recklessness, saving her from her own idiocy--and becoming one of her most trusted companions somewhere along the way. But even his endless dedication to his master couldn't have anticipated the monster bird that stole her away one day, any more than it could have anticipated the quest against an ancient evil that followed it. His loyalty to her soon saw him going well outside the list of things expected of his position, but he never stopped serving her for a moment... even as the warmth he had once felt in her presence slowly turned to pain as she grew ever closer to the heroic boy who accompanied her.
