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.

After years and years of observing the stars, this dragon has developed quite "interesting" ideas about the nature of time and space. When he speculates about both being essentially the same, some of the more philosophically inclined members of the clan get interested, when he talks about the "absolute elsewhere", a point in space-time dragons can never know about, some of the Magis still try to follow, but when he starts comparing time with twines or bands even the most patient dragon loses interest.
