Astralophyne Dragons are talented magic users in many aspects, their most prominent area of expertise being that of supportive magic. In addition to normal healing powers, these dragons can tap into the energies of the soular plane using a circular glyph for especially powerful healing and strengthening magics. When the glyph is summoned, their tail tips and wings flair out, and their fur billows and bristles from the ambient energy as if a gust is blowing around them. This exceptional power takes much time and effort to learn, training beginning from a young age and mastery considered to be a mark of true adulthood. They are scholars at heart, ever eager in the study of the arcane and medicinal. In part due to this, Astralophynes can be found in varying professions; some settle down to raise medicinal herbs and insects, some teach their knowledge, and some travel around in further study of magic, occasionally healing those they come across. Some especially brave have been known to join other valiant dragons, supporting them in battles against great threats.

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.

Adhara is particularly proud of his magical skill and healing abilities, to the point where it's all gone to his head. Adhara isn't exactly the humble type, on the contrary he's arrogant, pushy, and rude. He believes his innate talent entitles him to act above others. He expects gracious thankyous and even, occasionally, payment for the use of his healing magic. To be completely fair, Adhara's talent is incredibly impressive. He's a prodigy in the arts of healing magic and well-versed in other varieties as well. When tackling a huge or dangerous foe, spells as effective and powerful as his are essential. Unfortunately, the willpower it takes to overcome his snobbery is a lot more than most dragons are willing to bother, so Adhara has no friends and little support from his family. His siblings all despise him. Even the most cheery, loving ones tend to avoid him. Adhara blames everyone but himself for this, positing that everybody is just jealous of his talent.
