Terrae Dragons are primarily herbivores who prefer to eat from the tops of trees. However, due to their massive size, they must rely on small, specialized scales to absorb and convert energy from the sun. Since they live in tightly-knit groups, this form of energy absorption helps preserve the forests in which these dragons reside.

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.

Solen Badar doesn't normally enjoy the company of other dragons, despite his kind usually being very social. He prefers wandering the forest alone, sharpening his antlers on small trees, and finding discreet, overgrown clearings in which he can sunbathe in for hours on end. He will only interact with other members of his species, or White dragons if he's critically ill. When introduced to another dragon of another breed, he'll refuse to interact with them, and will more than often sulk away.
