Deep Sea Dragons, as their name suggests, spend most of their time in the darkest depths of the sea. They have a bioluminescent dorsal spine that serves to attract prey and communicate with their own kind. As with many deep sea animals, they generally eat whatever they can manage to bait. They rarely leave the ocean floor, surfacing only during breeding season. When they do choose to travel to the shallower depths, they avoid bright lights and will only come up far away from shore.

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.

Her real name is Marlo, but she never uses that name, since it sounds masculine instead of feminine. When dragons are relaxing in the water, and she swims by, she hates their frightened reaction. She doesn't have many friends because of her scary first appearance in the murky waters. She swims with the eels, which are more her type, and will lay in the swamp shallows, instead of hiding in the deep sea. She longs to be a land dragon more than anything.
