Shimmer-scale Dragons are a very beautiful breed with small—but highly reflective—scales that shimmer and shine as the dragon moves through water. They don’t have fins or webbed feet, but their long, eel-like bodies allow them to swim quite fast. They were once rumored to carry large pearls in their claws—causing many to seek them out in search of this fabulous treasure. In reality, the “pearl” is of greater value to the dragon, for the fabled treasure is actually an egg carried by a migrating female.

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.

Before Beroan Ator plunges into anything, from a problem to a vacation idea, he needs to analyze all the facts and know all the details before he takes action and makes a decision. This makes him seem indecisive and slow. Beroan's careful behavior isn't without reason as he is wary for hunters that want to kill him for his scales. Having his best friend, Redox Gold, as his personal bodyguard. Beroan is always with Redox and is hardly seen without him. Beroan is prone of living in denial. He will say that he feels okay or everything is alright even when it's not. This is an easy way out, the one thing that Beroan does not like is to analyze his emotions so pretending everything is okay is a good defense mechanism for not having to take a closer look at his feelings. Beroan is a skilled hunter and fisher, often providing food for Redox as payment for his protection, despite the fact that Redox does not mind guarding him and is a capable hunter himself. Beroan is thoughtful and loyal.
