Spitfires are a desert breed of dragon. Their dull brown bodies contrast with their brilliant turquoise markings, and they only blaze brighter when these dragons fight. Spitfires are notorious for their territorial natures, and the wing-edges of most are ripped and tattered before their first year is out. Spitfires are also noteworthy for their brilliant blue fire, which is used not for hunting or fighting, but rather for making glass caves from the sand, in which the dragons can soak up the sun.

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.

AquaSeashell is known for her aqua markings and beautiful collection of seashells. She and her mate, Silver Eclipse of the Sun, fiercely protect their eggs and hatchlings. When she was young, many dragons in the cave thought she would not live to adulthood because she was weaker then the other hatchlings. That frustrated AquaSeashell, but Silver Eclipse of the Sun believed in her. So, he and FeatheredMoon, the cave's healer, helped her. She lived to adulthood and proved to the other dragons anything can happen.
