Copper Dragons are masters of stealth, slipping silently and swiftly through the forests and jungles where they live. Often hunting in groups, their prey rarely know they are being stalked until the dragon’s at their throat. In the air they are agile and skilled. Copper Dragons prize family groups, spending large amounts of time teaching their young skills. So great is their love of life and family that they will sometimes adopt orphaned dragons of other breeds to raise.

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.

Deep in the darkest sector of the jungle where Ficus Bough's clan resides, there are three Copper dragons who are commonly referred to as the 'Raptor Trio.' They earned this title from their infallible hunting methods. Once they have targeted a particular prey animal, they have never failed to bring that animal down. While the 'Raptor Trio' remains on good terms with Ficus Bough's clan and often meshes into their group during social situations, they prefer to hunt separately, feeling that having one of Ficus Bough's dragons around would seriously hinder them.

Since Diantor is the only female in the 'Raptor Trio,' one would think this would result in numerous confrontations between her two male compatriots. However, neither of them have ever viewed that as an issue. To them, Diantor is simply one of the group, and an integral one. As the swiftest, most agile member of the 'Raptor Trio,' the task of cutting off the escape routes for the group's potential prey usually falls to her.
