This breed of dragon results from eggs or hatchlings that have been neglected. They are usually rebellious, not obeying their masters, sometimes even attacking them. However, their neglect as a hatchling leaves them crippled, and they are weak compared to other breeds, causing them to stay with their masters for protection.

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.

As her father's last breath left the old dragon's body, a prophecy was uttered of a dragon baring the name of their land who would fall from the sky and save them all. Theodorra believed wholeheartedly in these words, and began to watch the skies with a childish hope for this mysterious dragon. There must have been some truth in it, because some time later after a horrendous storm, a young Black did just that. His wings were injured from the strong winds and he was scared witless, but to Theodorra he was everything she'd hoped for. And that night, as they slowly twirled together under the stars, she couldn't be more sure.

Until she realized his true nature, how dishonest and selfish he was. Her heart broke into so many pieces that she couldn't stand it. Bound and determined to see his slow, painful demise, Theodorra joined forces with her sister to take him down, unaware that it was her sister who had crushed her and turned her body a horrible, sickly green.
