White Dragons are pacifists and specialize in extremely strong healing magic. The only limit of this magic is that it can’t bring back the dead. They only eat plants and never kill living things.

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.

This white dragon is slightly smaller than the average of his race, although his heart is just as big—and maybe bigger. One day, when still young and fiery, he went out across the seas, seeking adventure; he said that he wished to help bring peace to the easternmost lands. A long time passed before he came back, and when he did he had changed: although having gotten rid of his fiery temper, he was now a strangely selfish and cynic one compared to other white dragons, although still having the calm-tempered and knowledgeable ways of his race. He seems cold, closed to strangers, remaining amidst his small circle of friends, almost never coming out of his cave but to hunt. But, once one learns to read him, Shelvish seems more like the dragon he really is: kind-hearted, attentive to his loved ones' needs, although slightly prickly. He uses his great healing powers only in the most desperate cases, always scared that he'll do something wrong and mess up the situation further.
