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.

Charrend the Darkness Cleaver is a quiet dragon. She is strong and courageous, but does not like to boast of her origin. As a Guardian of Nature, her favorite thing to do is wander through the forest. She often stares into a lake and dreams of being a normal dragon, not one of such high position. She does not like the attention she gets when she walks amongst other dragons, and keeps to herself most of the time. She enjoys the company of animals to dragons, because they do not swarm her, or mock her for being rare.
