Heartseeker Dragons are very social creatures that emanate a sweet chocolatey scent. Their captivating perfume easily attracts adult dragons that don’t yet have a mate. Heartseekers use their keen sense of smell to detect solitary dragons and potential mates in the area. By rubbing their fins against objects such as trees and rocks, they leave a scent trail for the other dragons to follow to meet each other. Although these dragons are seen year-round, the scent of a Heartseeker becomes particularly potent during the middle of winter. During this time, a single Heartseeker may play matchmaker to dozens of dragons, but he will also choose a special mate of his own.

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.

Oberon's luscious scent does nothing to entice other dragons to meet during the day, but at night just a sniff of his exquisite fragrance will lead to dreams, dreams so beautiful they would make one weep for the love that they do not possess. Oberon is well aware of this, and travels often near to lonely dragons, who find themselves waking in the morning with an irrepressible thirst for love. The dragons Oberon visits in the night then find themselves following his day time trail, wandering for miles on the path of the heartseeker who remains continually out of sight, yet as they travel they meet other dragons, all following him. Dragons follow him for weeks on end, meeting potential mate after potential mates, until one day they bump into the one they are destined to be with. Then is the only time they will see Oberon, who will appear before them, and send them on their way into their happily ever after.
