This breed of dragon was thought to exist only in legend. Although their name varies between cultures, they are often referred to as “Guardians of Nature.” They are able to channel the forces of fire, ice and lightning, which allows them to wield tremendous power. Seen very rarely, it is thought that they only become active when something is threatening the territory they have chosen to guard. In order to protect their chosen home, these dragons are incredibly adaptable; they have been seen everywhere from remote mountain ranges, to ancient forests, to the darkest depths of the ocean.

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.

Quengarak arrived just as the residents of Dragonhaven Island were discovering that the island, the former home of a group of magi dragon researchers, was nowhere near as safe as they had first believed. He was too late to save Jenkayn from whatever forces left her a permanent hatchling, but claimed that whatever had happened to the black hatchling while she was gone was only a minor setback compared to what the island would face. Quengarak refused to give any more details, so now more nervous residents find it impossible to relax when he visits, as they fear some disaster is imminent.
