Cassare Dragons are known for their magic-deadening abilities. Though not a conscious ability, a large field surrounds the dragon through which magic is passively nullified. This field is strongest near the dragon itself, and falls off with distance. The absence of magic often makes other creatures avoid them, though some will have the opposite reaction and seek refuge instead. It has also caused them to be hunted, as though the field is severely weakened once dead, their bones and scales retain some of the effect. Possessing such an item is considered a necessity by those who expect to face hostile magic.

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.

Ukkariya dislikes his breed's inherent ability, as it means that he has to be extra cautious about where he walks during the large clan celebrations that utilize magic for showcases and special catering. This also means that his magically-inclined siblings are constantly twitchy around him, which he finds incredibly awkward because his magic-deadening ability is passive and frankly there's not much he can do about it, thank you very much. To make himself more approachable, Kariya practices his conversational skills. He may never be the life of the party, but he's content with his lot in life so long as he has friends he can laugh with even when he has to keep his distance.
