Sunset Dragons are closely related to sunrise dragons. However, their behaviors differ greatly. Sunset Dragons generally live alone or in small packs. They are more active in the evening, hunting and performing all of their daily tasks as the sun sets.

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.

On the Brink of Death, Brink for short, was named because she was a very, very sickly hatchling. She coughed and sneezed all day long, refused all food, and her idea of a workout was walking just once around the clearing where the dragons live. Even though she was a sunset dragon, she slept almost all day, only awaking to watch the sun slip beyond the horizon. The other dragons and frozen hatchlings worried about her, knowing that she had a slim chance of survival, until the Magi, Ronicus Explodicus, made a cloud of fog wrap around her, shielding her from anything that could make her even more ill. Eventually, her health began to return, and she used her quickly-grown wings to flap about the clearing. Soon, she was old enough to abandon her awful hatchlinghood, and fly around in the skies of maturity. Brink has a lot of catching up to do, however!
