Yellow-Crowned Dragons are found in the hottest, driest regions of the desert. Although they thrive in these conditions, they do very poorly in cold or humid climates. These dragons are very fast fliers and skilled hunters, and usually feed on small, quick desert antelope. Yellow-Crowned Dragons are diurnal, and spend the night in underground burrows they dig or steal from other creatures. They are often seen out sunning themselves in the early morning sun, waiting for the heat of the day to set in.

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.

Like all Yellow Crowns in the clan, SK loves nothing more than the taste of feline meat. His problem is that he really can't stand the smell of living cats so hunting gets quite difficult. SK often hunts deer or wild boar and trades it for mountain lion or lynx with other dragons to get around his problem and he will pay extra if the cat creature is already skinned. Once the fur is gone he has no problem with the further handling and will happily devour the tasty snack.
