Dorsal Dragons are so named because they have large fins along their backs that can be raised and lowered at will. They use these fins to regulate body temperature; they raise them to cool off when they become overheated. The bright colors on the fins double as a means of attracting mates.

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.

Inarguably, Jesri Kyr'aden is the most outspoken of all of the dragons in her wide-spread family and will not hesitate to let you know how you rate on her scales. She is highly opinionated, which drives off many other stubborn dragons, but the one's worth knowing will listen to her and find a way to share their opinions, too.
