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.

Dragontown's famous Yuletide pantomime plays are a fusion of two similar draconic and human traditions, with roles played by a mixture of humans and dragons. The plots are paper-thin, the acting over-the-top, and the characters mere caricatures, but nobody goes to these plays for subtlety or nuance. They go to cheer the heroes, boo the villains, and sing along with the actors, as audience participation is a huge part of the appeal.

Seufi plays Evil Villain. Even in a cast of overactors, he manages to stand out for his ability to chew the scenery. He wouldn't scare a young hatchling, but he exists mainly to be booed at. Seufi thrives on audience appreciation (even booing, as that's all part of the show) and is always trying to take the royal crimson's share of the attention. Seufi once managed a ten-minute death scene that was only brought to an end when the other characters teamed up to shove him offstage. Even then, he kept coming back out for more applause.
