Guardian Dragons have large shields on the end of their tails. Although the shields appear to be heavy, they are light, yet nearly unbreakable. Guardian Dragons use their tail-shields, as well as their wings, to deflect attacks and protect others. Often, they will guard the eggs and hatchlings of a nest while others are away. They are generally peaceful, and will not retaliate unless necessary. They have no need to forage or hunt, as they are fed by those they protect.

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.

Jocilith takes pride in her male-ish name. She is hard worker, and will leap at any chance to help anyone. She always defends Nezoth, when he wants to look at the moon but Azi Dahaki is blocking the view. She is enemies with Tahmya-Apsu, because she hates the way she is so vain. Jocilith flies fairly high, but only so she can look over the land, and make sure no trouble is going on.
