Daydream Dragons are the hosts of daydreams and fantasies. They spend the majority of their time sitting on clouds, dropping daydreams down into the minds of people passing by. Humans who live near Daydream Dragons must be especially careful not to let their thoughts wander, or they could end up spending hours or even days in a trance-like waking dream state.

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.

Lady Sunlight of Cotton Wood is an original dragon. She is one of the few dragons to be a LadyLord and have their home stated in their title. "No, I do not mean anyone who is simply called that is original. The Leader and his Caretaker call us that; we are the original Fire Clan," she says to any newcomer. She harbors the dreams of her clan members, viewing them, she appears in her mate's dreams often frightening them, as she hasn't had a mate in a while.
