Silver Dragons are arguably one of the most beautiful types of dragons. They live in high altitude habitats such as mountains. Male Silvers hunt and eat meat. While not as beautiful or radiant as females, silver males possess better physical attributes, such as strength.

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.

Pueo, like all of the tribe's silver dragons, lives on the island of Molehu. He received his name like all other silvers: as a hatchling, his looks, personality, and actions were inspected by the elders and then summed up in a word in Hawaiian. For him, it was Pueo. His name means "owl".  When he was just an egg an earthquake shook his nest and he rolled away from his mother and down a large hill. Owls, attracted by the shiny reflection off of his egg, stood near it until his mother could find him again. Even though he only spent a few days near owls he was forever changed. Many dragons consider Pueo insane, for he coos and hoots all night long and rarely is ever seen without an owl perching on his horns. Pueo is skittish near other dragons and will only eat small mammals such as mice and shrews. Many exasperated mother owls will have to deal with Pueo overfeeding their babies because he believes himself to be responsible for his "children" and wants to be a good father.
