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.

As the eldest surviving son of Yunfu, Nanhu, whose personal name means "southern tiger", is determined to bring pride to their family. Born with a keen business sense, Nanhu brought a surprising asset to the entire group of dragons around them: trade. He isn't as charming as some of the dragons he deals with, but his fairness in working a bargain has earned him respect among the other adults. He has a quirk for experimenting with food and hopes some of his ideas will catch on in the world of dragon dining.
