Nebula Dragons are nocturnal creatures. With the best eyesight to be found, they are often seen staring into space. Each dragon tends to observe a particular nebula and will eventually change their colors and patterns to match it. As the nebula changes over time, the dragon changes with it. The more intricate the design of the nebula, the better chance an individual has of attracting a mate. It is said that the markings on no two Nebula Dragons will be exactly the same.

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.

Tarazed is often to be found alongside Fargor, the highly respected Magi of the Veda clan. He pesters the magi with questions and factoids about the nebula depicted on his skin—questions Fargor has answered hundreds of times before, and factoids which he provided himself. Tarazed is oblivious to this though and just can't stop talking about how beautiful his markings are.

The only thing he's more proud of than his own markings are those of his daughter, Dubhe. Much to her annoyance—when he's not with Fargor, he's probably pestering her.
