Radiant Angel Dragons are known for their intuition—they always seem to know when someone is feeling down, and will do what they can to provide cheer. These dragons are curious and will poke their noses into anything. They communicate with one another by making sounds similar to singing. It is said that the golden feathers shed from their whiskers can rekindle lost feelings of love.

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.

Due to severe bouts of dragon sickness in his childhood, Karem'Ra struggles with stunted growth, underdeveloped muscles and immune system deficiencies. He was left behind in the Rokuri Desert by his family, probably because he couldn't keep up with them. Luckily for him, he was discovered in a very malnourished state by the blind monks of Toso-Amri, who value empathy and mercy towards all living beings, and nursed back to health by them. They jokingly called him Karem'Ra, which translates to 'seeing-eye dragon'. However, his human upbringing, sheltered and cozy as it may have been, comes with its drawbacks: He is disconnected from his kin, almost unable to communicate with dragons, and easily intimidated by them, if not terrified out of his mind because of his dramatically inferior strength.
