Magma Dragons are capable of withstanding the intense temperatures of their element. They live in volcanic regions, their bodies coated in the red hot magma which clings to their scales. They must leave the lava fields in order to hunt, although they require surprisingly little food to sustain their lumbering mass.

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.

Tirranun is a fearsome dragon who dwells deep within his cave's volcanic heart. He favors the extreme temperatures and the lack of other dragons, since only a couple other species can tolerate such an environment. He spends much of his time submerged in the magma chamber like a crocodile, with only the top of his head and back visible. Visitors to his part of the cave must be protected by spells. Not much is known about him and he is not very personable, but he seems intelligent enough and is generally too lazy to attack unless provoked.
