Magi Dragons are, as their name suggests, primarily magic users. They rarely use physical forms of attack. They eat anything they can kill, which is almost everything. They won’t kill unprovoked except when hunting, although they may kill humans if in danger. Their strong magic makes them one of the most feared breeds of dragons.

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.

Rysmara arrived at Dragonhaven Island under the pretense of being a researcher sent by Tynef from the Goldenmage Assembly, so that she could observe Norivan and report back on his progress. This isn't entirely untrue. She is from the Goldenmage Assembly, but Tynef hardly even knows she exists. Rysmara was sent to discredit Norivan by any means necessary, assigned to the task by a small faction that resented the introverted magi dragon's success. So far, her attempts to overthrow Norivan have been quickly squashed by the other dragons, but she remains undaunted by her failure. If nothing else, would-be leader Eini Rosequeen is always willing to lend a helping claw.
