Grave Dragons are not named for their connections to death or burial, but for the grave expression on their faces. This strange expression is used as a defense mechanism that causes fits of panic and terror in potential predators. Since they only eat ash and charcoal, they do not hunt. Grave Dragons are powerful fire-breathers and have been known to burn down forests and villages alike to make meals. It is believed that the markings on each Grave Dragon’s wings are the faces of those who have lost their lives in fires started by that dragon.

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.

Chatter Bug acts not how one would expect a Grave dragon to act. The thing he likes to do most is talk. He does not enjoy burning down villages or striking fear in the hearts of those around him. He just likes to talk. If there isn't any dragon or person to talk to, he talks to himself. He is always happy to be able to speak to another living creature, because everything is scared of the grave expression his kind keeps on their faces. He has been trying to train himself to not look at things like that for a while now, and has been getting better at doing so, but he still has to concentrate on his face to prevent scaring away anything that happened to be listening to him at the time. Like everything else, Chatter Bug has a good sense of humor towards his lineage and race, constantly pointing out how bad the taste of charcoal is.
