Magma Dragons are capable of withstanding the intense temperatures of their element. They live in volcanic regions, their bodies coated in the red hot magma which clings to their scales. They must leave the lava fields in order to hunt, although they require surprisingly little food to sustain their lumbering mass.

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.

Known as the Prince of his cave, Ardinel is the child of the Queen of the cave Furiku, and her temperamental mate Illidallion. He takes after Furiku in most situations, but he has picked up his sire's temper. Much to the chagrin of his parents, Ardinel has a habit of starting fights with those around him when he is even mildly in a bad mood or bored. Perhaps one day he'll grow out of it, but it doesn't look like it'll be any time soon.
