Horse Dragons have equine-shaped bodies and hooves instead of claws, which allow them to be fast runners. They specialize in running takeoffs, which are quicker than taking off from a stand-still. Horse dragons are able to stalk their prey from the ground then quickly execute an aerial attack for the kill.

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.

Purely named after his dragon code, Raforu charged into Vair's cave one night in the middle of a lightning storm, most likely caused by Svenioq and Zeroqsix playing in the sky, with a broken leg. Oracle Apollo rushed to his aid and placed a splint on his leg. Raforu says he didn't plan on staying long, he seemed to be a vagabond, but after the few months needed for his leg to fully heal he felt so much a part of Vair's cave that it was difficult for him to leave. He apparently never had a place to call home and was drifting from one cave to the next. Soon after being healed he started courting Aurora Boreas who had more important things to fill her time with, such as raising the cave's offspring. Finally, after much deliberation, she decided to take him as a mate. They now have offspring of their own who've had children themselves. Happy and at home, Raforu is staying right where he's at.
