Albino Dragons are so named because their translucent, scale-less skin lacks all pigment. Instead, to help protect their bodies from the sun, they are coated in an oily secretion that blocks the sun’s harmful rays. The call of an albino dragon is similar to a barn owl--a shriek instead of a roar.

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.

Tinesh is a very spiritual dragon. He prays to various gods of various religions. Tinesh can often be found in a quiet cave somewhere, with little bees wax candles around his current nest. Despite having the best intentions, he sometimes will refuse to help, claiming it's the will of the gods. He can be a kind dragon, though has been known to be very snappish when his rituals are interrupted. He isn't the strongest of dragons, so he keeps some charred, dented knights armor around (all of which are stolen from the dungeons of fearsome dragons common among fairy tales).
