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.

Marza has always felt as if he was lacking compared to the other Nebula dragons of the Veda clan. He feels as if his markings aren't as beautiful as those of his peers and is rather shy because of it. However, he is simply blind to the admirations of the females, most of which really love the simple beauty of his markings. Some day there will be a special female who manages to convince him that he's every bit as beautiful as the dragons he envies so much.
