Dorsal Dragons are so named because they have large fins along their backs that can be raised and lowered at will. They use these fins to regulate body temperature; they raise them to cool off when they become overheated. The bright colors on the fins double as a means of attracting mates.

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.

DragonJaws is an sentry dragon. He watches the borderline areas to make sure people stay away from the coven. DragonJaws is usually found between the mountain and the ocean, enjoying the cool spray or climbing on the rocks. Anyone who tries to approach by either sea or Mountain pass don't get far past DragonJaws.
