Stone Dragons have a tough outer covering made of a stone-like material. They eat rocks, using the minerals they contain for nourishment and to keep up their stone outer shell. They rarely move, and are the heaviest of all types of dragons. Although they have wings, indicating flight ability, no one has ever seen a stone dragon flying.

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.

Darroch is the oldest dragon in Tier 2, the 6th dragon overall, and the 4th male dragon overall. He is very quiet and will hardly respond to anything anyone says. He mostly speaks with body motion. He does say a few words from time to time. He is likes to help Zypher protect the clan because that means standing very still in an unnoticeable place and scaring any wild dragon that would happen to come along. When he was a hatchling, he had a sickness called Cave Sickness, which is where an egg that has been left in a cave by itself for too long begins to die. When Rolsu found him, she thought it was too late, but she took the egg anyway. As a hatchling, everyone else thought that Darroch would die at any moment because he always seemed so weak and frail. But as he got older, he got stronger and everyone was relieved because that meant that he would live.
