Black Marrows are named for their dark colored hides which are encased in a distinct exoskeleton. Their skull and the top edges of their spine push out from under the skin as they age. As such, their young need excessive amounts of calcium for this armor to develop. The older a Black Marrow dragon is, the more skeletal their appearance. They often use their skeletal looks to lure in foolish scavengers or terrify predators. These vicious dragons love nothing more than to crack open bones with their stony beaks and eat the marrow inside. Voracious scavengers, Black Marrows will swarm and devour corpses both old and fresh, sometimes even dragging larger finds to the water to allow them to “ripen.” Despite their dreadful demeanour and often horrid stench, Black Marrows are devoted mates and parents.

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.

Evil McTerrible is super evil, as evidenced by "Evil" right there in her name, and she loves to gloat about what a horrible dragon she is. She regularly helps smaller dragons cross the river safely, donates surplus food to those unable to hunt for their own, and does other terrible, terrible things, all the while cackling gleefully and pointing out to her "victims" that such acts really, totally, DEFINITELY further her awful plans. Surely people know how evil she is because that's what she tells them every opportunity she has. As for those ulterior evil goals, she seems to have none, but she'll think of something one day.
