Black Dragons are warriors. They are strong and capable in battles of force, but also ample magic users, capable of devastating opponents with their spells. Their bright eyes give them excellent night vision, which is why they generally hunt during the night.

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.

A black dragon who relies on her fangs rather than words, Fang of Sorrows had led a life covered in winter's frost.  Unlike her black dragon relatives, she is not skilled at magic.  She relies on brute force in battle, and is relatively strong compared to most.  However, her lack of skill in the magical arts has caused a myriad of problems for her.  While her brothers and sisters would practice magic, she would be left on her own, abandoned and forgotten.  This, and her cold, antisocial personality have caused her to become the outcast of the cave.  She grew up on her own, with only the nighttime stars to keep her company.  Nevertheless, she became an adult, and fell in love with an equally cold seasonal dragon named Frost of the Night.  Oftentimes, they are seen flying above the clouds on cool, starless nights.
