When Water Dragons mature, they lose the ability to survive on land, entering the water permanently. They are adept swimmers and eat whatever fish are in the lake they live in. They tend to inhabit the same lake for their entire lives, although a few live in the ocean and swim all over the world.

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.

Stonespirit is a dragon that has gone from egg to adult with very few watery problems. She loves swimming in the murky waters of bog lakes, and enjoys lurking under the water waiting for her next meal. Stonespirit is a dragon, who loves to inhabit an environment that is stormy in comparison to the in doors where the environment can be controlled. She spends all waking time enjoying the vicissitudes of the environment in which she lives. Stonespirit has very few dragon friends, because of her pride she has trouble relating to other dragons that are not considered of her caliber. She has the power to blend into the water environment, because the bog camouflages her presence. This power makes it where Stonespirit can be invisible to any and everyone she chooses. This enables her and many of her dragon family to live among humans without having the usual problems associated with them. She has learned that the best way to work with them is to work around them.
