Dark 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 males guard their territory and eggs while the females search for meat to eat. Dark Lumina Dragons are much meaner than their cousins.

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.

Housekeeping is proud and well-groomed. There's never a scale out of place on him, and he's always positioned in a way that begs to be sculpted or drawn. Surely, no one ever sits with tail curled, one arm raised, and wings open wide, in a spot where the sun just happens to light his sharp features. He looks dignified and gentlemanly, but those who spend a bit of time with him soon learn he's just a big bag of wind, talkative and self-centered and overly concerned with looking good.
