Shimmer-scale Dragons are a very beautiful breed with small—but highly reflective—scales that shimmer and shine as the dragon moves through water. They don’t have fins or webbed feet, but their long, eel-like bodies allow them to swim quite fast. They were once rumored to carry large pearls in their claws—causing many to seek them out in search of this fabulous treasure. In reality, the “pearl” is of greater value to the dragon, for the fabled treasure is actually an egg carried by a migrating female.

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.

Rainbow Rapids is a sophisticated dragon with a bad attitude. She came to the Dragonsai Cave when she was just an egg, abandoned by her owner. This came as a big surprise to the dragons since they had never seen a Shimmer Scale egg in their lives, let alone in the abandoned area.

Despite her pitiful lineage and disgraceful personality, Rainbow will always have a place in the hearts of the Dragonsai dragons, even if she never finds out how she got into the Dragonsai Cave.
