Gold dragons are the ones most often killed by humans, who consider their scales to be extremely valuable. These golden scales grant them a high level of protection, similar to armor, and they use this to their advantage in battle.

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.

A dragon with a great zest for life, this energetic individual is the king of a small and cheerful country. While he does the usual leadership things of signing laws and ensuring the economy is thriving, he's perhaps best known for his unorthodox behaviors instead. Believing that to rule properly, one must live alongside the ruled, he's in the habit of tromping through the cities of his country at dark, ensuring all is well and putting out of business any criminals he comes across.
