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.

Lamont is a rather famous "astrological cartographer" as he describes himself. He creates beautiful maps of the stars in the heavens above his clan's territory, marking time and location to see them properly. His charts are rather valuable among seafarers, and he is in high demand by naval forces to create these charts and maps for people to use. Almost everyone who comes to Lamont to purchase one his fine maps has never questioned how exactly an armless dragon draws such detailed and accurate renditions of the skies, though even if anyone would, Lamont would not answer. It's a secret he keeps, much like the suspiciously human-sized bed that can be found in the secret storage room of his astrological tower.
