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.

Nuelth has an uncanny ability to tell if another dragon is lying.  Some credit her with arcane powers, but she claims that it's just a matter of knowing how to read body language.  Nuelth uses her abilities to help the legendary magi detective Morida—while Morida does most of the deductive work, Nuelth is invaluable for her talent for telling whether or not a suspect is lying.  Her dream is to eventually become a great detective in her own right, and she's already picked up more skills than even Morida realizes.
