This breed of dragon was thought to exist only in legend. Although their name varies between cultures, they are often referred to as “Guardians of Nature.” They are able to channel the forces of fire, ice and lightning, which allows them to wield tremendous power. Seen very rarely, it is thought that they only become active when something is threatening the territory they have chosen to guard. In order to protect their chosen home, these dragons are incredibly adaptable; they have been seen everywhere from remote mountain ranges, to ancient forests, to the darkest depths of the ocean.

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.

The guardian dragon of a land that had long suffered the aftereffects of a magical disaster, Ec Tisia spent many years consumed by her anger at the humans who had been responsible. She lashed out with the full force of her magic at any people who dared set foot in her domain, until one day the descendants of her original enemies arrived to try and make peace. Though at first resistant, Ec Tisia was eventually moved by the sincerity of their words and their efforts to right the wrong of centuries past. She now works with these same humans to restore her land to its former glory, her heart filled with a renewed hope.
