Magi Dragons are, as their name suggests, primarily magic users. They rarely use physical forms of attack. They eat anything they can kill, which is almost everything. They won’t kill unprovoked except when hunting, although they may kill humans if in danger. Their strong magic makes them one of the most feared breeds of dragons.

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.

Martha is a member of the establishment at Delirium's academy. A well-known, long-time student, she never did much to draw attention to her one way or another. However as one of the backbenchers, she is in the unique position to sway votes one way or the other, by gathering a few of her fellows around her. Under normal circumstances Martha keeps herself in good graces with the different factions and only sticks her head out when she deems a cause to be important enough to be worth the risk of getting on the bad side of one of the academy's more influential members.
