Nebula Dragons are nocturnal creatures. With the best eyesight to be found, they are often seen staring into space. Each dragon tends to observe a particular nebula and will eventually change their colors and patterns to match it. As the nebula changes over time, the dragon changes with it. The more intricate the design of the nebula, the better chance an individual has of attracting a mate. It is said that the markings on no two Nebula Dragons will be exactly the same.

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.

Prince Skarth is more of a trophy prince then an actual leader, preferring to neglect his country in pursuit of pleasures more luxurious than those his starving subjects receive. No firm leadership in the country has led to a famine, Skarth surviving on gifts from other nations alone, while food is worth more than gold in what lies beyond his castle. He will frequently spend many hours lost in thought, daydreaming about adventures, painting, and writing stories of all kinds and varieties. Skarth truly has his head lost in the clouds, as his scatter minded brain may appeal him to those who know him personally, but his advisers shake their heads in shame as they watch yet another attempt at solving their crises fall down the drain as their Prince has decided that a refreshing walk in the gardens is more important. While the discontent may stir behind his back, few will try to overthrow him because, no matter how much trouble he causes, he is still their beloved Prince.
