Avatars of Destruction possess a volatile disposition. They thrive on chaos and decay, and their horns and plated scales are as hard as forged metal. Because of their affinity with darkness and the destructive forces of nature, it was once thought that these dragons were omens of ill fortune.

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.

Cayrdyt Fame Taikaa Draekon, or just Cayr, is about as true to the stereotypical Avatar of Destruction as possible. Simply put, he's destructive. His brother, Echchatia Fame Taikaa Draekon (Chati) is an Avatar of Creation. They're near opposites, and Chati's attempts at getting Cayr to practice his love of breaking things out of the cave tend to end up in a lot of powerful fights. Despite their different views in life, Cayr is still very fond of his brother. There are times they just go out and fly together.

Much to the shock of many of the dragons in the cave, Cayr has also fathered offspring. He has a soft spot for Golden Affection Draekon. Some of the dragons find it ironic, considering how sweet she is compared to Cayr, a very difficult and often frustrating individual.

Cayr is unpredictable, boastful, capricious, and easily angered. Among his very few redeeming traits is his loyalty to those closest to him, especially his family.
