Black Dragons are warriors. They are strong and capable in battles of force, but also ample magic users, capable of devastating opponents with their spells. Their bright eyes give them excellent night vision, which is why they generally hunt during the night.

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.

Serelith is a female black dragon, a formidable hunter, and the mother of Lord Teremon's first egg. She is a proud and reliable leader of black dragons, and a reasonable battle tactician. She likes her meat fresh, and takes frequent nighttime hunting trips, occasionally amused by Kercitas's pigeon chasing. Serelith is well-known for several things, including easy friendship with almost all dragons.<br/>Serelith has an odd scar on her right foreleg, where she was clawed horribly by a Skywing dragon just after growing up. The experience taught her well, and she is a cautious fighter against anything her size. She doesn't perhaps fully appreciate arts such as mathematics, but has a reasonable grasp of them, and is able to read perfectly well. She also understands at least four human languages. Serelith is not royalty nor the most outstanding member of the cave, but very well-known throughout her nest.
