Royal Blue dragons are a nocturnal breed who prefer to live high in the mountains near slow-moving water that reflects the night sky. Although quite capable of defending themselves, they are peaceful by nature and will avoid a fight whenever possible.

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.

While her fellow Royal Blue dragons are content to simply while away their time gazing at the night sky, Irongem is busy deep within her secluded ice cave, tinkering with metal and magic to create unusual companions. She assures the other dragons and their human owner that her creations are harmless and that she simply uses them for menial tasks, though reports from the few who've gotten a glimpse of them say some of them seem to be suited for combat. Though for defense of the cave or a desire to take it over, no one is sure, and this intelligent, somewhat reclusive dragoness isn't telling. Because of this the others are content to leave her to her strange work, as long as she keeps to herself, though quiet whispers hidden behind paws and wings can be heard on the rare instances she leaves her solitude. Her only response is a knowing look and a small smile, furthering the rumor mill even more.
