Lumina Dragons received their names from their highly reflective scales, which—at times—seem to glow. They are vain, always strutting about and preening incessantly; if one of their scales has so much as a scratch or a defect, they’ll remove it. Luckily, their scales grow back quickly, and each new growth is more beautiful than the last. These narcissistic dragons live in small groups and prefer to surround themselves with beauty. The females guard their territory and eggs while the males search for vegetation to eat.

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.

Luminas are beautiful creatures, and this male is exceptionally so. Even other luminas, as caught up in their own beauty as they are, will stop to stare when he passes by, every scale in perfect order, every movement creating a ripple of delicate color. However, the poor male does have one secret; as gorgeous as he might be on the outside, he's got a terrible habit of stammering, and more than one female he's attempted to court has rejected him for not being as perfect on the inside as he is on the outside! Quite dismayed by this, he's taken to pretending he's mute--and so far, it's working quite well for him.
