Shimmer-scale Dragons are a very beautiful breed with small—but highly reflective—scales that shimmer and shine as the dragon moves through water. They don’t have fins or webbed feet, but their long, eel-like bodies allow them to swim quite fast. They were once rumored to carry large pearls in their claws—causing many to seek them out in search of this fabulous treasure. In reality, the “pearl” is of greater value to the dragon, for the fabled treasure is actually an egg carried by a migrating female.

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.

Yasuhiro is an exuberant, carefree dragon with his head in the clouds. He tries to see the positives rather than the negatives in any situation he is in. Boasting quite the vocabulary, he often gets lost in his meanderings...and yet others are still drawn to him. He is quite charismatic because of his play on words, even if he is going on about nothing in particular. As a result, others flock to his side, eager to engage him in a bout of his day-to-day ramblings. Yasuhiro is not without flaw. He can be swollen-headed, childish and easily excitable, but one dragon in particular manages to even out his temperamental and undesired behavior: Haneul the Royal Blue dragoness. Their differing attributes are like night and day, but those variations draw them together.

In his spare time, Yasuhiro likes to paint. With the help of crushed berries (and raring hatchlings with nothing better to do), he can often be seen painting his scales blue in ode to the illustrious and coveted Jewel.
