Terrae Dragons are primarily herbivores who prefer to eat from the tops of trees. However, due to their massive size, they must rely on small, specialized scales to absorb and convert energy from the sun. Since they live in tightly-knit groups, this form of energy absorption helps preserve the forests in which these dragons reside.

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.

Korborous is full of boundless energy. Because he was orphaned by his kind, he prefers to travel the land alone rather than in groups—wreaking havoc wherever he goes. Despite being loud and hyperactive, Korborous can hold his own when in a fight with other males, and is very protective of his mate, Era the Lovely. The two often race together for fun; she on the ground and he in the air. His life-long friends, Chiran the Brave and Akerian the Kind, are always present when he gets lonely. Sometimes Korborous's wild energy irritates them, but they stay with him nonetheless.
