When Water Dragons mature, they lose the ability to survive on land, entering the water permanently. They are adept swimmers and eat whatever fish are in the lake they live in. They tend to inhabit the same lake for their entire lives, although a few live in the ocean and swim all over the world.

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.

Insulto is the most hyper of Kinners' dragons. He is the third of the three founders of the Games Guild, him being the mastermind behind how they were to compete with other dragons. His first founding game was Soulswimming, a sport that manipulates song and dance. The competitors invent routines for them to perform, and sing the song that most fits them inside. Some different types of music were accidentally discovered via this sport. Silt, as he is nicknamed by his friends, has routines that include intense drums and other 'punky' instruments. He competes with other aquatic dragons using a spell taught to him by Kinners that surrounds the competitor in a water bubble the dragon in question can move around with its magic. This solves the problem of water dragons like himself being unable to survive out of water.
