Ember Dragons have a great affinity for hot environments. While they themselves are not hot to the touch, their tendency to lurk amongst smoldering ashes has caused many to believe they are fire-starters. Their dully glowing markings serve many purposes: acting as a means of identification between individuals, as an important part of mating displays, and as a way of showing aggression. The long, low build of the breed makes them ungainly in flight, and the thick fleshy membranes of their wings hinder them further. As such, it is rare to see an Ember Dragon take to the air. Ember Dragons are also not particularly sociable; females tend to be defensive, whereas males are more aggressive. Once they have settled with a particular group of dragons, Ember Dragons are incredibly loyal and will defend their pack by any means possible.

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.

Never trust a word out of this one's mouth. Laci is best known for being a compulsive liar. She thinks rather quickly and can come up with fairly plausible half-truths or white lies or even flat out I'm-a-flying-hippo lies. She's so good at it by now that no one can ever tell the difference between when she's lying and when she's telling the truth. She also rarely gets caught truthfully, which encourages her to lie more. But she's no gossiper or anything. The lies always serve a purpose that helps and hurts her, but doesn't often hurt others.

She's fairly self-conscious, always trying to gauge what others think of her and trying to fabricate her world to please them. Long ago, she realized she had no idea who she was, only the little bits and pieces others had planted in her mind. She can't go back and regain whoever was once in the mirror so she simply continues putting on more faces, hoping one day, the one she puts on she'll find is really her.
