Stone Dragons have a tough outer covering made of a stone-like material. They eat rocks, using the minerals they contain for nourishment and to keep up their stone outer shell. They rarely move, and are the heaviest of all types of dragons. Although they have wings, indicating flight ability, no one has ever seen a stone dragon flying.

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.

Hidden in a deep forest clearing overgrown with vegetation and protected from the worst of the elements by a deep covering of low lying tree branches and dense undergrowth, can be found an old abandoned quarry where long ago humans hacked away at the earth carrying away the resources they found. Now the quarry has found a new lease of life with its resident population of Stone dragons. The bare exposed rocks make the perfect food for the hungry dragons. First among these is Ceranos a large dragon with a thick hide well nourished by the rocks rich in minerals that sustain him.
