Crimson Flare Pygmies are named after their small size and speed. They are fast and love to fly up and down in steep climbs and dives, giving the impression of a flare of color in the sky. These dragons travel in swarms during migration seasons and are very social. They live in tropical locations or wherever it is warm, and they are often seen near active volcanoes.

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.

Pygmy dragons are the smallest category of dragons, being on the same scale as domesticated animals. They are often found around concentrated populations of dragons, relying on their larger brethren to ward away potential predators and leave scraps. As such, the majority of a pygmy’s diet is scavenged. Due to their tiny size, pygmies do not breed with larger varieties of dragons.

CrimsonOne is a Crimson Flare Pygmy Dragon who loves migration season. Like all of her kind, she spends the Spring, Summer, and Fall up near her volcano home, but spends Winters down in the tropics. She loves the long flight down there, loves the bustle of it and the community. During the rest of the year, CrimsonOne doesn't spend much time with other Crimson Flares; she loves how she really gets updated on everyone again on the flight. And then everyone is friends for the Winter, until she goes her separate way after the long journey back home.
