Copper Dragons are masters of stealth, slipping silently and swiftly through the forests and jungles where they live. Often hunting in groups, their prey rarely know they are being stalked until the dragon’s at their throat. In the air they are agile and skilled. Copper Dragons prize family groups, spending large amounts of time teaching their young skills. So great is their love of life and family that they will sometimes adopt orphaned dragons of other breeds to raise.

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.

What's in a name, the question was. One must, after all, strive for uniqueness. But a name must also fit its bearer, for there is nothing so excruciating as a poorly fitting name.

He really loved the name Bob, it fit him to perfection. He wasn't sure why, or how, but for some reason the name Bob was just him. There was, however, a slight problem. Not so slight, actually, which he discovered much to his distress.

When he told his friends he wished to be called Bob from then on, they replied:

It's not unique!

So, adrift in despair that his chosen name was not-unique and therefore not usable, he drifted about, until one day, he was hailed by a shop keeper as Not-Unique Bob. And the despair lifted, for in proclaiming the non-uniqueness of the name of Bob, he could have the name Bob!
