Deep Sea Dragons, as their name suggests, spend most of their time in the darkest depths of the sea. They have a bioluminescent dorsal spine that serves to attract prey and communicate with their own kind. As with many deep sea animals, they generally eat whatever they can manage to bait. They rarely leave the ocean floor, surfacing only during breeding season. When they do choose to travel to the shallower depths, they avoid bright lights and will only come up far away from shore.

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.

AIAIAB, or Ali (his true name), is the offspring of Skiwynd and Starri Nyght. However, he is not exactly...normal, being cursed from birth. As he was born, a age-old enemy of his fathers twisted his egg, placing a curse upon it. His parents mourned the tragedy for a long time, and still do. For Ali is more wild beast than intelligent dragon...

And yet, in his deepest heart of hearts, there is a spot the blatant evil did not touch, where the true Ali lives. Knowing that until the curse is broken, and it is unknown if it will, he cannot truly be himself; his only wish now is be released into the wilderness.
