Dark Lumina Dragons received their names from their highly reflective scales, which—at times—seem to glow. They are vain, always strutting about and preening incessantly; if one of their scales has so much as a scratch or a defect, they’ll remove it. Luckily, their scales grow back quickly, and each new growth is more beautiful than the last. These narcissistic dragons live in small groups and prefer to surround themselves with beauty. The males guard their territory and eggs while the females search for meat to eat. Dark Lumina Dragons are much meaner than their cousins.

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.

Being the owner of a pedigree that any dragon would be envious of, Black Goldstone Thuwed abuses her lineage to get whatever she wants from whomever she wants. Abrasive and arrogant, encountering this dragon on a bad day could leave an individual limping away with severe injuries. Her littermate Crimson Quin Thuwed is one of the few dragons capable of facing off against Goldstone without any fear of reprisal. Despite losing every single time to Quin, she never seems to learn any sort of lesson from their battles and is either unwilling or incapable of changing her ways even a little, which guarantees only more fights between the two dragons.
