Tercorn Dragons are typically friendly and peaceful in nature. Most individuals are eager to help, and show highly-cooperative behavior. However, they can easily feel disrespected by those unfamiliar with their customs. While the three long horns protruding from their heads may be fearsome, they serve mostly to scare off aggressors, and if an attack is deemed necessary for self-defense, it is never deadly in intention. Tercorn Dragons are quite social and active within their aquatic environment, but rarely emerge on land if not caring for unhatched offspring in hidden coastal caves.

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.

It's rare to see Softskies in a mood that couldn't be described as sunny, friendly, or, at least, chipper. As one of the first hatchlings laid and raised in the Weyr of Soft Flowers, he's one of the only dragons he knows who didn't end up here on the Southeastern coast fleeing some terrible horror or escaping the violence of the Weyr of Flame. Rather, his life has been marked by... Well, nothing, really. It's a pretty unremarkable life.

Since hatchlinghood, Softskies has dreamed of adventure, for the opportunity to make that mark. When he and his best friend, Silvershadow, would play in the surf, Softskies was always the dashing hero who finally defeated the evil Flameflow once and for all! Even now, grown and working as a fisher for the Weyr, he can't help but daydream about the glory of his youthful games. Deep down, perhaps it's the ghosts in the eyes of his dearest friends and family that drive Softskies to dream of being the one to conquer those hauntings for them.
