Albino Dragons are so named because their translucent, scale-less skin lacks all pigment. Instead, to help protect their bodies from the sun, they are coated in an oily secretion that blocks the sun’s harmful rays. The call of an albino dragon is similar to a barn owl--a shriek instead of a roar.

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.

Like most Albinos, Presence dislikes the sun. He much prefers to stay inside and read one of his large collection of books. He is somewhat picky about cleanliness and order, and the only part of his den that is not usually immaculate is the large, flat slab of rock that serves him as a sort of desk.

A loner by nature, he shows no real interest in a long term friend or love interest, though this may just be caused by the fact that he has a hard time finding any other dragons with similar interests.
