Storm Dragons are the masters of the skies. They are excellent fliers and land only to rest and eat. In addition, they have full control of the weather. They are very hot-tempered and easily angered. They will attack any human that bothers them, conjuring strong winds and dangerous lightning.

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.

Urkan is annoyed at how easily he loses his temper. He wishes he could control it more but he just doesn't know how. He spends a lot of time with the White and Mint dragons in the cave, trying to learn to be more peaceful. Unfortunately, Urkan is frustrated at his inability to keep from being frustrated. The other dragons point out that he shouldn't expect himself to improve all at once, but Urkan can't help but chafe at his slow pace.
