Ice Dragons are fierce predators who hunt using their extremely cold breath. The breath of an ice dragon can freeze its prey solid in seconds. The body of an ice dragon is so cold that icicles will form along its skin no matter the outside temperature.

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.

Icrias is a cold and callous Ice Dragon. He will freeze anything that comes near him unless it is another Ice Dragon, and even then he will try his hardest to chase them away from his snowy home atop one of the highest mountains. Icrias loves to play with his food; often freezing small parts of them at a time until only their face remains unfrozen. He does have a small kind side, however, as he will always try and help a lost hatchling find its parents again. This is probably because he was abandoned as an egg by his parents, and so feels empathy towards these hatchlings.
