Albino Dragons are so named because their translucent, scale-less skin lacks all pigment. Instead, to help protect their bodies from the sun, they are coated in an oily secretion that blocks the sun’s harmful rays. The call of an albino dragon is similar to a barn owl--a shriek instead of a roar.

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.

Bo's Colourless Shimmer is so named because her skin has no colour or pigment in it, but it shimmers when the sunlight catches it. Bo's Colourless Shimmer is gentle, yet very, well, snobbish. She acts fragile just for the attention of her mate, the Beta, Bo's Zav Spark. Because her mate is the Beta, this pronounces her the Elite Beta, the one who is Beta when Bo's Zav Spark is not around or unavailable. Bo's Colourless Shimmer strongly dislikes it when one criticizes the way she looks, speaks, etc. She enjoys flying around, gliding on a slice of wind. One of her main habits is constantly sharpening and polishing her long, goat-like horns to make sure they look perfect! Many male dragons find her attractive because she preens herself so much, earning the nickname "Egg Maker" by the females.
