Cavern Lurker Dragons are nocturnal ambush predators. Although small, they are very aggressive and will attack anything weak enough to be overpowered. Their preferred method of hunting is to lie in wait in a cave, burrow, or other small, enclosed space; when any potential prey passes they will lunge out to grab hold of the unsuspecting victim and drag it back into the lair. Cavern Lurkers have an odd aversion to sunlight and almost never venture out during the day. More commonly sighted are the odd piles of bones they stack near the entrance to their dens. Their mating call is a low-pitched bumping noise.

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.

Eclipsa Gloom-Stalk is a beautiful but extremely evil female dragon. She seduces male dragons into her lair, and then attacks them. She is a bit mad and has a strange hatred for other dragons besides her fellow residents of the Cave. Eclipsa Gloom-Stalk is perhaps the most twisted of the three Cavern Lurker dragons in this Cave. Her favorite weather is dark and foggy—she is perfectly hidden in the dark. She is nicknamed the Demonic Beauty.
