Royal Blue dragons are a nocturnal breed who prefer to live high in the mountains near slow-moving water that reflects the night sky. Although quite capable of defending themselves, they are peaceful by nature and will avoid a fight whenever possible.

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.

Poksy is renowned through cave and land alike for his ability as a food critic. His sensitive tongue allows him to easily separate the gourmet from the garbage, and dragons travel from miles away to have him taste their dish; as his mark of approval is all that is needed to have people flocking to your restaurant. This makes Poksy's life rather difficult, as he finds it impossible to eat anything but the finest foods, so the clan's healthy yet practical cooking disgusts him, and he frequently has to hold his nose to keep from retching. This was one of the reasons he chose his mate, a capable young chef so skilled with spices she could make a yoghurt taste like a hot curry, yet it was their similar passions which drew them together. Many have suggested Poksy starts a culinary school, but truth be told, he is an awful cook, with a talent for critic rather than the art itself.
