Failed attempts to experiment with magic often result in transforming dragons into these hellish creatures. They are extremely dangerous, and will mindlessly kill any living creature without regard to friend or foe.

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.

Appearing only in the dead of night, Esril is known far and wide among all the members of the Anima Clan as an ancient, wise dragon. One of the only remaining who remember the Final War, a war that led to the massacre of Caynae Clan, he suffered a cruel fate when his clan's leader, Settara, died by a traitor's claws. Esril's desire for revenge took over his soul and eventually turned him into what he is today; A bitter, lost spirit, left to walk the Earth to fulfill a purpose he no longer knows about. He keeps to himself, knowing that, in his broken body and mind, he was to keep the memory of Caynae Clan alive in the hearts of the Anima Clan, who shall never repeat the same history that has written itself in Esril's memories.
