Sunsong Amphipteres are an unusual breed. Due to light interference caused by their magical nature, they don’t seem to be affected by any ambient light source. However, when struck by direct sunlight, they shine a brilliant gold. They are playful and ever in flight; their ethereal and mysterious appearance and the fact that they are usually only seen at a distance have led many to believe they are a symbol of hope and good fortune.

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.

It is widely believed by dragons and humans alike that the sight of a Sunsong Amphiptere flying high above is an omen of good fortune and hope. While that may or may not be true, it certainly isn't in the case of this dragon. In addition to his breed's natural shine of gold, Solarprism can also reflect light into rainbows, and he uses this to trick others. He once heard a human legend that says all rainbows have a pot of golden treasure at the end of them, so he watches for a would-be treasure seeker to find the end of his rainbow, lying in wait until they get close enough to realize that there is no gold but a dragon instead, and proceeds to rob them of their food and valuables. However, tales of his exploits are not enough to discourage people from continuing to search for the mythical pot of gold, so maybe he's a symbol of hope after all.
