Shallow Water Dragons are found in tropical regions where the water is warm. They use their magic to hunt, using bubbles to capture small fish and animals. Their large, webbed feet make them excellent swimmers and they are able to move at very high speeds. Due to their bright color, these dragons are easily spotted in the lagoons where they live.

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.

Clock Obsessions gets her name for obvious reasons: she is, in fact, obsessed with the ticking of clocks and pocket watches. She will often steal pocket watches from the clothes left on the beach by swimmers, hoarding her ticking treasures in a small out cove by the beach. If a clock or watch she finds doesn't work, she'll bug Kuromori relentlessly until she gets them fixed. Clock Obsessions has gathered so many clocks and watches that the constant ticking was so numerous from all the clocks that it was hard to hear yourself think. Due to this constant ticking, Clock Obsessions went a little crazy. She only speaks gibberish now, making no sense, often all she will say is "tick, tock" over and over and over, saying random numbers and counting to herself. Kuromori has tried to take the clocks away to help restore some sanity to this dragon. Unfortunately, however, she won't let her, claiming that "the ticking of the clocks is the ticking of my heart."
