Sunstone Dragons are named after the orb on their tails, which resembles the gem of the same name. Their social structure resembles a lion pride, with one dominant male and several females banded together with their young. They prefer arid climates where they can blend in and dig for minerals and gemstones that they not only collect, but eat. The more gems they consume, the larger their tail stone grows. They are an aggressive breed; it is not uncommon to see two males battling for mates and territory.

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.

Bigtail is almost triplets with Garnettail and Shinetail. They are probably kin but no one knows. They all love anything red. Some say that if you connect their tails in the summer on a Monday when the sun is highest you can get a tiny bit of magic. Together they are happy, but if you separated them they are heartbroken and sad. They like going to the desert and hunting owls there at night. Before they go to sleep they play a game where you make a story one sentence at a time with each other.
