This breed of dragon was thought to exist only in legend. Although their name varies between cultures, they are often referred to as “Guardians of Nature.” They are able to channel the forces of fire, ice and lightning, which allows them to wield tremendous power. Seen very rarely, it is thought that they only become active when something is threatening the territory they have chosen to guard. In order to protect their chosen home, these dragons are incredibly adaptable; they have been seen everywhere from remote mountain ranges, to ancient forests, to the darkest depths of the ocean.

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.

Seafarers speak of this dragon with dread, telling how she destroys ships.

Actually, Saylur is just curious about them. The first time she saw one with sails unfurled she thought it was a dragon in need of help. As she got close to it, the nervous sailors fired ballista at her. Struck in her tail, she reflexively breathed out a bolt of lightning that broke the ship in half.

The next ship she saw, Saylur tried to descend on it rapidly. However, when she landed on the crow's nest, her weight sank the ship.

A third time she approached a ship on the high seas, an arrow struck the reflex point on her knee; she kicked out, connected with a mast, and turned the ship on its side.

Finally she landed on an island where a ship had anchored. The captain, thinking his ship lost, approached the dragon to try negotiating for the lives of his crew. He was astonished to find her asking him how ships work and helping them to get water.

Saylur now tries to make ships large enough for dragons.
