Guardian Dragons have large shields on the end of their tails. Although the shields appear to be heavy, they are light, yet nearly unbreakable. Guardian Dragons use their tail-shields, as well as their wings, to deflect attacks and protect others. Often, they will guard the eggs and hatchlings of a nest while others are away. They are generally peaceful, and will not retaliate unless necessary. They have no need to forage or hunt, as they are fed by those they protect.

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.

Bacl is RaeReneau22's first guardian dragon and one of the most protective dragons she's ever met. Because RaeReneau22 has raised him, Bacl shows a fierce protective streak for her and the other dragons under her protection. Bacl is, among other things, attracted to dragons and people who are underdogs and enjoys watching over those he considers one of his own. In addition, he loves to eat Italian style foods and loves when someone simply sits with him for hours at a time.
