Labradorite dragons are some of the most potent siphons of mana in Valkemare. Dragons and other magical creatures in close proximity to a Labradorite will weaken over time, and extended exposure may even be fatal. However, Labradorites have no control over this effect; any harm they may cause is almost always unintentional. In order to protect others from their draining, they make their homes in the labyrinthine depths of underground caves. Perhaps as a result of this seclusion, Labradorites are gracious hosts to the brave few who dare explore their dark caverns. Legends tell of how these curious dragons traded their sight for wisdom, and those who seek their guidance are richly rewarded with stories, advice, and the odd gemstone.

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.

Tactilovisage hides within the dark

Where rarely surface-dwellers chance to stray.

A sapphire wandered in and on a lark

He asked her in and told her she could stay.

Just his luck, the one he asked to stay

Had wanderlust and wouldn't take a home.

She promised ere she went away

That she would share his name with all who roam.

Exeunt's next book, "When You Decide To Roam"

Included Tactil's cavern as a shop

For stories "better than in any tome.

Bring mana shards for payment. Worth a stop!"

Suddenly his cave became a stop

For travellers who came from far and wide

Though scared at first, he soon set up a swap,

Tale for tale, and ran the place with pride.

Exeunt came by. He greeted her with pride

Because of how, as people come and go

He never drains too much. He still will hide

When crowds get rowdy and impair his show.

The loneliness that he once feared to show

Was gone. He sensed her aura had the glow

Of love. She tried to lie and tell him no.

She dropped that with a little pushing, though.
