Guardian Dragons have large shields on the end of their tails. Although the shields appear to be heavy, they are light, yet nearly unbreakable. Guardian Dragons use their tail-shields, as well as their wings, to deflect attacks and protect others. Often, they will guard the eggs and hatchlings of a nest while others are away. They are generally peaceful, and will not retaliate unless necessary. They have no need to forage or hunt, as they are fed by those they protect.

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.

Trudon is an honest dragon, with a good heart. He's rather quiet sometimes and he is very tender with the young ones. He enjoys being a guardian, and watching over the eggs and hatchlings; seeing how they grow and develop. He feels the process is magickal in and of itself. "The Magick of life..." as he has said. He wishes some day to have little ones of his own, though the dragon he loves, Stone Heart, does not think the same...at least not yet.
