Lumina Dragons received their names from their highly reflective scales, which—at times—seem to glow. They are vain, always strutting about and preening incessantly; if one of their scales has so much as a scratch or a defect, they’ll remove it. Luckily, their scales grow back quickly, and each new growth is more beautiful than the last. These narcissistic dragons live in small groups and prefer to surround themselves with beauty. The females guard their territory and eggs while the males search for vegetation to eat.

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.

This dragon is obsessed with the ways in which shadow and light interact... but her interest goes beyond the purely physical manifestations of that war. Believing the world is perfect only when the amounts of light and dark within it are equal, she allies herself with neither good nor evil, but acts as is required to maintain the balance. On one day she'll poison a beloved hero, and on the next she'll rescue a pair of orphans, and so on and so on--caring nothing for virtues or sins, simply seeking to keep the world in balance.
