Ice Dragons are fierce predators who hunt using their extremely cold breath. The breath of an ice dragon can freeze its prey solid in seconds. The body of an ice dragon is so cold that icicles will form along its skin no matter the outside temperature.

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.

She is the daughter of a rather absent-minded dragon, and learned at a young age to be observant and find out everything she wants to know by herself, without relying on her mother to explain anything to her. This may sound sadder than it is; she was not neglected, she was raised and protected by everyone around her and at the same time had a greater freedom than most hatchlings. Whenever she now meets Ice Dragons from other caves -and she is very outgoing and makes new friends easily- they always say about her that she lives "At The Heart Of Winter", which is an Ice Dragon idiom and means having one's heart in the right place.
