Dorsal Dragons are so named because they have large fins along their backs that can be raised and lowered at will. They use these fins to regulate body temperature; they raise them to cool off when they become overheated. The bright colors on the fins double as a means of attracting mates.

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.

As a warrior in a group of Purple Dorsal Dragons, this male has named himself Warrior. He is gruff, with a heavy accent in his telepathic voice, and is a 'tough love' type dragon. While he does try to keep the other members safe, if they complain over an injury, the Dorsal Dragon always finds a way to get their minds off that pain. Though his techniques do what they're supposed to, they don't make the other members like him that much.

Warrior interacts more with the females of the group than the males. He doesn't try to flirt, but more often asks them what they think of things. Like the other dragons, he has hobbies, but they are not very masculine. Nobody tries to tease him for his love of decorating with flowers or making frilly objects though, since nobody wants to be sat on.

While not liked that much by the other members of the group, Warrior is a loyal dragon and he keeps his sights on protecting his group, no matter what they think of him.
