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.

Since Phantom has effectively retired from the clan leadership and became a leader in name only, Warrior's Cry has been the de facto leader of the clan's Blacks, who are the backbone of the clan's defense force.

Although most envy him for effectively controlling the clan's biggest military group, Warrior's Cry wishes nothing but to pursue the interests of the clan, rather than going with the more extreme members' wish to knock the few-but-powerful Magi down a peg and assume supremacy over the defense force's control.

While clashes at the bargaining table are not unheard of, Warrior's Cry has a deep understanding with Reality Killer, the Magi's de facto leader, specifically regarding the priority of clan interests compared with those of the two major military groups; they will often work together behind the scenes when it becomes apparent that a dispute between their respective groups is threatening the clan's well-being.
