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.

Lord Magma is the only trio dragon who spends most of his time researching how to make the summoning actually happen. His frustrations and countless effort were rewarded when the Guardain of Nature, Brairtrainer (named after the wizard who keeps the dragons), was summoned. Though he did not lead the ceramony he was the one who helped work out all the timing kinks, even if it still took several tries to get right.

All this hard work almost failed however, when Brairtrainer ran away because she felt so lonely in the cave. Lord Magma went searching for her and eventually found the winged hatchling hiding in an old damp cave. Lord Magma picked her up and gently carried her home and spent the rest of his time taking care of her until she grew strong enough to resume flying lessons. When Brairtrainer, the dragon, refers to him she calls him her father, though she never does it where he can hear as he refuses to have her call him that.
