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.

Aloof and preferring solitude over company, Ildura resides in the deepest recesses of the ocean next to the cliff her clan stays in. Rarely, if ever does she surface to visit with her clan members, but don't mistake her solitary life for a dismissal of her family. Ildura loves them dearly, and watches over them from the depths of the ocean, and woe on anyone who tries to harm them, for don't mistake her gentle grace in swimming for inability to defend, she will drown you if you harm a single scale on their bodies.
