Skywing Dragons spend most of their lives flying in the air. They hunt from the air, diving at prey from above, and land only to rest. They are some of the fastest fliers, capable of extremely high speeds. The webbing at the end of the tail acts as a rudder, allowing them to easily change direction during flight.

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.

Deschis is a dragon that others consider a loner. He usually wakes up very early in the morning and flies away very high or far and leaves no clue of where he has gone. Other dragons bully him by eating all the food and leaving him to eat the leftovers, and they sometimes crowd the cave at night so he doesn't have anywhere to sleep. Despite what the other dragons do to Deschis, he does not fight them nor does anything but fly somewhere all day and come back to the cave late at night. However, there are some dragons that like Deschis and are always happy to be with him. His master does not even know about the other dragons bullying him but is always trying to make him happy. Deep inside Deschis, he is actually a very friendly, loving, caring and smart dragon.
