This breed of dragon was thought to exist only in legend. Although their name varies between cultures, they are often referred to as “Guardians of Nature.” They are able to channel the forces of fire, ice and lightning, which allows them to wield tremendous power. Seen very rarely, it is thought that they only become active when something is threatening the territory they have chosen to guard. In order to protect their chosen home, these dragons are incredibly adaptable; they have been seen everywhere from remote mountain ranges, to ancient forests, to the darkest depths of the ocean.

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.

From atop his porcelain throne, the Guardian of Nature's Call is the self-appointed protector of pooping. Regardless of what euphemism is used, he uses his magic to protect all those in the act of eliminating bodily wastes. Travelers from far and wide come to visit his castle's latrines, which never stink and the seats are never too cold. He respects all who "make dirt" as it were, including the single-orificed marine invertebrates all the way to the post complex, multiple-vented creatures.

Every year, the GoNC hosts a waste-venting competition; he judges the contestants on quantity, quality and technique. This attracts a surprisingly large crowd given the nature of the event, and the reward is always the same: a toilet seat he has blessed himself, and an enchanted, infinite roll of toilet paper. It is rumoured that some of the female winners also become his consorts, to the annoyance of his primary partner, Royal Vent-Wiper.
