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.

A clumsy dragon with a horrible sense of direction, this male has more than once ended up alongside the coastline when he actually meant to find his way to the bottom of the sea. While his wanderings were usually harmless, they took a turn for the worse one cold Halloween night, when he found himself drifting along a seemingly abandoned beach...

That shore was the home of a grizzled old witch, who had been spurned by a handsome sailor for her cruelty many years past and never forgotten it. Determined to put an end to the sailor's children and his children's children, she captured the clueless dragon and began to prepare a ritual that would turn him into a lifeless demon that would forever haunt those shores.

Just when it seemed the dragon would lose his life, however, a brave female of his breed broke through his cage and freed him. Grateful, he began to follow her about (her sense of direction was better than his anyway!), and from there a gentle love began to blossom.
