White Dragons are pacifists and specialize in extremely strong healing magic. The only limit of this magic is that it can’t bring back the dead. They only eat plants and never kill living things.

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.

Separated from his parents while still an egg, Aria was luckily rescued shortly afterwards by the human Louna. As he hatched, he saw her and three excited hatchlings: Guardian Chandra and Skywings Kodo and Podo.

Growing up, he developed feelings for Chandra, but kept to himself, as she only seemed to have eyes for Kodo. He even followed when Chandra led them into the land where the Rishnala clan was to be born.

Heartbroken, he watched as she and Kodo became mates. But soon after, Kodo chose Podo as his lifelong companion. He stayed at her side to console her, and, in time, she began to realise how he felt and started seeing him as more than a friend.

Calm, peaceloving Aria is the only one who can make Chandra see reason when she sets her mind on something. Alpha, the only offspring of theirs that Chandra has allowed in the clan, is the light of his life. He often gives her wisdom-filled talks and hopes that she will one day become as good, but less impulsive a leader than her mother.
